How do you become emancipated?

Question

I've always wanted to know that. Please don't anserw unless you know what your talking about!

Answer 1

Support yourself! That's all there is to it.

Answer 2

If want to become an adult before age 18 (i.e., an emancipated youth), there are slightly different rules in different states. In California, you have to be living apart from your parents and supporting yourself, as well as have a plan to finish school. Your parents usually have to consent.

You can also get married or join the military before turning 18, but parents must consent then too.

Check out courtinfo.ca.gov or google your state and emancipation laws.

Answer 3

If you are 18 and have completed high school, you are emancipated. If you are under 18 or are still a high school student a court will need to decide. You will need to file a petition in the courts to start the process. Then the judge will look at things such as your ability to support yourself financially, your age, if you are married, if you have a place to live, etc. before granting emancipation status.

Answer 4

If you are asking of being emancipated from your family and familial responsibilities it's easy...either realize you need time to grow and accept that you are incomplete (UNLESS there is serrious abuse, and not simply a child wanting so-called "freedom" [which does not exist without responisibilities to self and others])...or become a fool.


Legally, however, to become emanicipated means you must find a lawyer who believes you are in danger from that family or member of it...the SRS can help; but, be warned, the process can also wind you up in far worse homes, under far stricter conditions should a judge or poor case worker deem "you" as "at risk", but not ready for emanicipation. Search the web for local entities (services) that can direct you to free or low-cost information and help...unless you are in danger, and not simply a young person trying to stretch your wings, I'd use extreme caution.

Answer 5

Being emancipated means being free. As long as there is a society, one can never be free, because if you can do whatever you want, some one else is being harmed. Thus, in this world, no one is truly emancipated until they die, and even then the secular govenment days you must be autopsied, your assets must be divided however the government says.

Answer 6

In Michigan, you have to be financially able to support yourself, either be in school or formally dropped out, and have a safe place to reside. Then you petition the court, have a hearing, and wait for the ruling. However, if you are 17 the courts will not make you return home anyway.

Answer 7

Stand up and walk out the door of the house your in,don't pack nothing,don't take nothing,don't even turn around and look back,because this is the beginning of emancipation,just keep walking and don't look back. Now! how does that feel,isn't it keen,isn't it cool,your free from the bondage,oppression and the restraints you were in. AAH! FREEDOM! good luck too you and your new freedom.
