Not all states have an emancipation statute (a process in place in which a minor can petition the court for emancaption), and to the best of my knowledge, NY does not have one. However, if you get married or join the military (both of which require parental consent) then you would be automatically emancipated.
By the way--getting pregnant does NOT emancipate a minor in ANY state.

There are actually three ways a minor may become emancipated:
get married
join the military, or
go to court and have the judge declare you emancipated ("judicial declaration").

Take their parents to court for a "divorce."
Just like a Child (Acting) Star.

Get pregnant, that will pretty much do it in all states.
