My question involves guardianship in the State of: Texas.
I'm not sure this is exactly what is meant by this, but I hope it still makes sense.
I'm a 15 year old girl in the state of Texas, and am looking to get emancipated when I turn 16 in a couple months.
I already have a steady job that I've had for about 8 months, and I am looking to get another one. I'm still in school (a sophomore), and I get decent grades; I did very well on the SAT and ACT tests, so I have no problems with my mental capacity. I also plan on going to college.
The reasons I want to get emancipated:
My parents have gotten divorced this year, and I mainly live with my father. My mother in simple terms is crazy. I love both my parents dearly, but they have their problems. I don't feel like I'm in a healthy environment. I was sexually abused throughout elementary school by a family friend, and living with my dad makes me uncomfortable because of my anxiety in being in close quarters with older men. It doesn't outweigh anyone's hesitance in me living with my mom though- she really has mental issues. I would like someone's opinion on what I should do, and if emancipation is an option for me.
Thanks,
Maxxie.
Edit:
Let me add- I already pay for all my school supplies, and my parents don't pay for health insurance for me, so that is a moot point. I also pay for my own food and clothing. My parents ignore me, except when they need help with something. I also have no siblings in the house. I also have my hardship that I got last year.
