I really don't know about Wisconsin's laws, I know in Minnesota, she woulds have to be 16 years old, Now to be honest with you, I'm not saying your a bad person or anything, I just want to explain what she could do in certain curcumstances, If you were mentally or physically abusive or both to her, then I really don't think there's any set age limit to take you to court or get help to! But at 15 I don't think she could even get a court date scheduled on her own!
She would need social services etc, to do all the legal stuff for her! Now her father could if he had enough legal grounds and felt it was in her best interest to be removed from your home but that is still no guarantee she could go live with him. But I really feel she's trying to put the scare into you, maybe because you and her had a feud over something and she's showing her anger over it!
At 15 years old, she's a minor and can't do any legal things like take you to court, without some adult doing it for her, I really don't feel Wisconsin would have such laws that minors themselves could take anyone to court, and for her to even think about taking you to court, where's she going to get the money to pay for the court doings! There are many lawyers you can talk to for free to get answers for things like this, and many will go over the whole thing with you and not charge you a dime! To tell you the truth I think she's just blowing off steam and trying to worry you at the same time!
But check around and find out what laws and legal ages of taking a case to court, at least then you would know what if anything she could really do! I find it easier to either play along with an angered child and over rate the problem to get them to come back to there senses! Play off her threats by saying things back to her that will make her feel guilty and terrible that she even threatened to take you to court! Like do you know how much your hurting me by saying things like that!
And do you think I could go on living without you! You would not only break my heart, but you'd take away my will to live, can you honestly do that to me! I love you more then life it self!
That should get her to think nice and hard of what she's doing to you! But by all means don't argue with her, say your peace and walk away, go into your bedroom and close the door and lye on your bed with a book for about 5 minutes, let her think that you are just devasted over the whole ordeal! She may surprise you when the guilt gets her right in the gutt, On teens you have to learn some acting skills, just like they do to try to get there way!
I find it works real well, and has worked many times for me! Teens will do almost anything to get there way, But I feel parents need to know ways around the teens tactics, tantrums without having to have all out screaming matches, because that just makes matters way worse and doesn't solve anything, Parents have to learn how to play all types of role playing or either that let there teens drive them completely insane! I hope I shed a better light on the subject for you and you and your daughter can resolve the problem toegther!

No.
First, WI doesn’t even have an emancipation statute (there is no formal procedure in place through which a minor can petition the court for emancipation).
Second, the purpose of emancipation is not to allow a minor the freedom to go with someone else (even another parent). The purpose is to allow a mature minor the freedom to live *on their own*. Therefore, the minor would have to prove to the court that he/she is capable of fully supporting theirself—paying for rent, utilities, food, medical expenses, school supplies (because the law requires they go to school), etc—with no help from anyone. Since child labor laws *greatly* restrict the number of hours a 15-year-old can work, there is no way they would be able to do that unless they are a professional actor/athlete/etc making *big bucks*
There are other requirements for emancipation for too, such as have a *valid* reason it would be in the minor’s best interest, the minor having the maturity to function as an adult, etc.
Of course, Dad can petition the court for custody of the child.

that really wouldn't be emancipation then. he just seems to want to change homes. he or his dad may be able to go back to court to have the custodial parent changed though.

i think of you will possibly could desire to have your mom and dad permission in the previous you will be able to desire to marry at that age. Is there someplace else you will be able to desire to flow? What a pair of buddies abode, a relative, grandparent, aunt? At your age, the prospect of any marriage lasting is soooo small!! The nationwide generic is in basic terms 50%, yet at that youthful age, it particularly is a procedures much less!! i understand you think of you opt to get married and be out of your abode and away out of your mom and dad, yet i actual think of you like counseling including your loved ones to work out in case you could artwork issues out. And DON"T get married at this youthful age!!
