My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Massachusetts
I will be 17 years old when I graduate from high school in June 2018. My plans for myself were to go to college out of state back to Florida where i’m originally from. I have plenty of people I am able to stay with. I can even stay with my father. I’m just looking for stability in my life. Every time I’m comfortable somewhere she wants to take that away from me. I really don’t want to sound like a bratty teenager who hates her mother like most teens do at this age but that’s certainly not the case. Only my family members who have seen how my life has been for the past years can vouch for me. I’ve been on my own since I was about 14 taking care of myself. I haven’t lived with my mother since then, first it was my friend then my God mother.
I was brought up November of 2017 when my mother lost her job. Clearly, I can’t do anything for her so I feel that she did it so she would be able to receive the benefits from the state (food stamps, cash assistance etc.) I’ve always supported myself financially and worked hard in school so when i’m an adult I wouldn’t have the same financial problems as my mother. Anyways, to get to the point I want to become emancipated. My mother will not allow me to go to college out of state in Florida. She is a very controlling person and actually doesn’t want to allow me to do anything for myself but also tells me to grow up. I am 17 years old and she even goes through my papers and tries to find out what I’m doing so she can start a problem with me. I have no privacy, not to be funny or anything but when I use the bathroom and if i’m in there for over 5 minutes she constantly asks me what am I doing and what’s taking me so long.
It’s a bit ridiculous, she was just diagnosed with bi polar 2 & now she wants me to go get medication as well and decides to tell me how i’m crazy at LEAST 3 times a day. I don’t have my own room because she’s still staying with her mother. That’s how things have been since I can remember. I understand that in Massachusetts emancipation is almost out of the question. But due to my circumstances & with me being out of school does anybody think a judge will grant me emancipation? Is there anybody on here who thinks they can help me?
