    Im 16 years old and i have been having problems with my mother.. she has been threatening me tellin me that she was goning to emancipate me... and recently she told me that i can walk out the door and let a judge raise me and be put in foster care. She has also told me that i am the reason that her marraige is falling apart, that im a whore and all i do is f**k around with guys which isnt true.. i have a bf whom i love very much, but my mother wont accpet him cuz he is black that is why she doesnt know about him... I would like to be emancipated... and idk how to go about doin it. I have two jobs, i had three but i had to quit one of them, i almost have enough money saved to get a car, and ill have my license in dec. If i move out now, ill have a place to stay and a ride to and from work. Please Help me. I cant stand living here anymore. Its emotionally killing me.

    Default Ohio Emancipation Law

    You can emancipate in Ohio through lawful marriage, or through active duty service in the armed forces. If your marriage or service ends before your eighteenth birthday, you are again subject to the control of your parents.

    Default Emancipation in Ohio

    If you enter into a lawful marriage, you will automatically become emancipated. If you divorce before you are 18, yes, you would no longer be emancipated.
