My best friend was taken away from her mom when she was 12 and has been living unwillingly with her aunt and uncle for the past 4-5 years. she hates living with her aunt and uncle, they put her through alot and she want to be on her own. She is 16, almost 17. I really want to help her any way i can and i have looked up the laws but i was wondering if i could get them explained a little better. Thanks.
