    Exclamation Questions About New York Emancipation

    Ok I'm 17 years old and i live on long island. My parents are moving to North Carolina in 2 weeks , they said I could stay here but found some information saying they could be held responsible for abandonment. So therefore now they want me too come. Is this true?
    And if I do stay here and live on my own without them they still want to send me money for rent and such is that legally ok?
    I really need this information A.S.A.P

    Are they intending to help you live independently? If they are worried (rightly or wrongly) that you need more structure, perhaps you could live with a friend or relative until you turn 18.

    If they were to abandon you, it would be possible. But from what you're saying they're planning to ensure that you have a safe, appropriate living environment, and sufficient means to support yourself.
