At her age it is almost a moot point. She is old enough to do whatever she likes in most states.

At 17, it really doesn't matter that much any way.
However, the rules for emancipation require that the child requesting has a permenant job, either a HS diploma or attending HS or enrolled in a GED class, is selfsufficient and can live completely on their own. I doubt your child passes any of these test.
She feels constricted by you inlaws? Then go pick her up and bring her to your house to live. She can either live with their rules... or live with you and your rules. Emancipation is NOT a good option.
Good luck.
