    Default I'm 17 and I Want to Get Emancipated

    My question involves emancipation laws for the State of: Florida.
    I'm 17 years old and recently a lot of things have been happening with my mom & I.
    My father isn't in my life & I'm an only child. I recently came out to my mom
    about my sexcuality & since then its been nothing but emotional and mental abuse
    and i can't take it anymore. I want to go through the process but I don't even
    know were to begin. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Default Re: Im 17 and I Want to Get Emacipated,

    In the state of Florida, your parents must be the ones to initiate the emancipation petition. If they don't, emancipation will not happen.

    Additionally, if you don't already have a proven track record of supporting yourself 100% while maintaining good grades, it won't happen even if your parents initiate the petition.
