My girlfriend is currently 16 and would like to be emancipated and I am wondering the best way to go about doing so. Her parents are divorced but still live together, her mom has no job and is very controlling over her entire family including her father who is pretty much her little bitch (excuse my french). Her mother is extremely abusive emotionally but not physically so I believe this will be much harder to prove to the court. She has a job and a car, which is almost pointless; when she gets paid her mom makes her fill the gas tank in her car, then her mom takes her money and steals her car (without a license) and disappears for 2-3 days on a crack binge. This may be hard to imagine but I have seen it first hand. Several people have called CPS and nothing has been done although they say something will be. We recently found out that my girlfriend is about 3 months pregnant and she can not deal with her family and does not want our kid growing up in that household. I am not sure what to do but I am about to break down and cry because of all the shit we have gone through.
I am sorry if this is hard to understand but without showing you all this it is so hard to explain. I hope you can help.
