My family, well, is a highly mobile family. My step-father constantly changes jobs for pointless reasons and we have been moving around the United States since my 7th grade year of school. Since we have established ourselves in Arkansas we have been nothing but family battles. When we moved here I was promised that we wouldn't move until I gradutated High School. Well it's the summer before my senior year and we are moving again to Washington State; due to my step-father, who has never gained have legal custody over me. Since he has recently been in Washington, starting his new job, my mother and I have been fighting constantly as usual. But now the physical area is worsening. While a friend was visiting from Texas we engaged in another fight, I hit my mother once because she threw me against the wall trying to choke me for not telling her I went to hang out with my boyfriend when I went on the lake. I was left with torn clothes, scrathes, and deep bruises. The next day she laughed at my marks. Sadly to say, this was not the first time I had been thrown around, my step-father is guilty as well. My mother hates all of my friends and boyfriend, (who honestly is a hard-working person; who will succeed in life) espically since I have been trying to be with them more since I discovered we were moving. She has been more mentally and physically abusive than ever before. It has finally become unbearable. My schooling is good, I take a college Criminal Justice course in the morning and highschool in the afternoon. My grades are above average and I have no criminal record, except a minor speeding ticket (which was gained after I fought with my mother). I am able to prove my capablities of holding a job and my boyfriends parents are aiding me by allowing me to live with them as long as I need/want to (through college). Recently I turned 17 years of age, and I own a car that was given to me by my grandmother. My mother and step-father are leaving AR in three weeks; I have no family in the surrounding area. How can I go about getting emancipated or giving custody to my boyfriends parents? Under my circumstances is it possible?
