    Default Ohio Emancipation Help

    Ok...

    Im 17 years old. My girlfriend is 15. We are real serious about each other.

    The problem is, her family hates both her and me. They always tell her things about how "shes worthless" and "they shouldve putten her up for adoption because they wanted another boy." They absolutely hate her.

    They told her recently that as long as she lives in their house, she is not allowed to date me. Then she told them she was moving, and they said fine we dont care (and I think they really dont.) She said that there are papers they can sign that would allow her to legally move out as long as someone else signed it to become her guardian.

    Is this true?

    EDIT: To be clear, she wants to move in with either me or one of her friends so she can see me. She told me her parents told her theywould for sure sign the papers.

    Her parents can grant a guardianship to another adult, who assumes responsibility for the minor. That's not emancipation, and it would not alleviate them of their responsibility if they did something foolish like attempting to make her minor boyfriend her guardian.

    Im not going to be her guardian, either my parents of one of her friends parents will be.

    Im just worried about me getting in legal trouble for this? She tells them everyday shes gonna move out when shes 18, and they just recently said "then why bother wasting 2 years you might as well move out now."
