i live in Ohio and want to be emancipated, but those laws don't apply to people in Ohio...?

Question

i live with my dad and my step mom. she adopted me at the age of ten or so. i feel put down everytime i talk to my step mom. my real mom left me when i was a child at three, and my step mom took me in. i do appreciate everything she has done for me, but she expects too much.i dont know what to do. i want to move in with my aunt but there are no emancipation laws here in ohio. i honestly need to get out of that house. and no one would understand unless you lived there.im not physically abused now but my emotions are so screwed up because im not aloud to make any decisions for myself. they try to plan my life for me even though i am seventeen. i have never even drove!!! i get yelled at for everything i do. i will admit that i have made mistakes in the past, but my parents especially my step mom thinks that i am always going to screw up.i just want to breathe.i need to know how i can go about getting out, if there is something i can do.any good ideas, that will help better my life?

Answer 1

You do not sound mature enough to be on your own. You don't like the house rules so you want out. Calm down and do what is expected of you, you will 18 soon enough and then you can be on your own. Of course then you well see the real world and want to come home... You really have some growing up to do.....
