    Exclamation Washington State Emancipation

    My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Washington.

    I turned 17 just this January and I want to start my own life. Not because I want my own freedom but because of my household. I live with my parents and two brothers. One is 19 and the other is 14. My father refuses to work and hasn't held a job 7 years after he was fired after failing a mandatory drug test for crystal meth. My mom works minimum wage.

    I'm "socially-damaged" - I don't have friends, nor do I want to make any. I don't like connecting with people. I prefer bring alone. I'm set to graduate this June. I was class of 2014 but graduating 1 year earlier because I took extra classes. I left school when I was in 8th grade and take online classes. It's a online school run by my school district.

    I think of myself as a resourceful and intelligent person. I've been making money from home since I was 13 years old because my dad refuses work. Together, my mother and I have been supporting a family of 5. I've been handling the families affairs for as long as I remember. My mom doesn't make enough to pay the bills, rent, groceries and other costs. I have been helping with practically everything.


    I don't have a steady source of income. I make $1000-2000 a month for commissions I earn promoting products online (I don't actually do any work, people see my review and order the product), and when I need money, I will design/develop a website. I can make $1000 in 8 hours or so. I just don't work so much right now because I have schoolwork.

    I want to move out because I feel psychologically damaged.
    My father doesn't work,yet keeps telling me that I'm a loser that sits home all day.
    My father had brainwashed everyone in my family except me. He wants everyone to pity him. He spends one week drinking, the next smoking crystal meth inside the house and the next weak being all sweet and kind.
    He keeps telling me to give him money for vodka but why should I?
    He also cusses at me, tells me I'm the devil, everyone hates me, I'm
    worthless.', and so I move out of his house.

    He's been torturing us for years, my mom will not kick him out or get authorities involved. I asked my mom if I can move out, she begged me not to because she doesn't know what she will do without me. She told me that the only thing we can do is to pray.

    I've had 30,000 income reported last year. This year will be higher as I want to start my open Web Development firm.
    I have two credit cards ($3000 limit on each, I pay in full every month and 0 late payments) and a checking and savings

    My father physically abused me when I was a child. I can overpower him now so he only mentally abuses and threatens me.

    I can't let this get ugly, I need this done peacefully. I can't let DSHS get involved.


    I have enough money right nod to buy a car, first months and last months rent, ect..

    I can't ruin my relationships with my mom and my brothers.

    You do not qualify for emancipation.
