Yeah, at least one does, probably both.
If you're being abused you could call CPS (Child Protective Services) in NY, or 911 most anywhere else, or go through the Yellow Pages to find a lawyer with a "free consultation", then go IN PERSON and tell them what's up an see if you can sue for freedom - it does happen every now and then.
But consider: Emancipation only means you become a ward of the state, possibly put with another family or an orphanage - not always the best of situations. You could also have your parents sign consent to let you go military at 17. Choose wisely - is it really so bad? 18 isn't all that far away, and things are not as easy as they appear.

i can not discover a State that makes it possible for emancipation at 14 or 15. what's greater in basic terms no longer liking your mum and dad rules does no longer be adequate. you should teach the flexibility to help your self. i won't have self assurance that at 14 or 15 which you do. you should ask to be placed in State care. looking on the place you reside that must be a foster abode or team abode. Any petition for emancipation demands notification of the mummy and dad or a sensible attempt to realize this. they have the your best option to testify on the listening to.

You have to hire an attorney and convince a family court judge to emancipate you. There have to be clear, compelling reasons to do so. Being mad at Mom and Dad doesn't cut it with judges....

depending on the state that you live in the laws are different. But basically if you can support yourself and have a place to live then i believe at the age of 14 you can petition the court to hear your case and they can decide whether your parents like it or not.

You have to go to court and have a judge declare you emancipated.

Not necessarily- that's the whole point of trying for emancipation.
You do have to prove that you can support yourself, etc., and have an independent income.
Talk to an attorney- you may find one who'll work for you for a reduced fee or even pro bono.

In most states you can file a petition before a judge but it varies from state to state.
Might find some help here

You do in Florida, I don't know about other states.
If you leave home, do you have a job? transportation? Can you finish school? Do you have a place to stay? If things are really bad, call social services and have your home investigated.

You have to have the Courts approval if you are underage
