getting emancipated is amazingly not elementary to do until your pregnant or something. you're able to coach to the decide which you're fit to shelter your self. I say if this tale have been given out a 5 and sixteen year previous being raised by utilising a drug addict that they are going to in all likelihood placed the two little ones in foster care. stable good fortune with each little thing!

You must be of adult age in your state but also must show that you can financialy support them and have a decent place for them to stay. Its not as easy as it may sound as theres alot for you to prove to the courts to justify awarding them to you than just being of age. Basically your life must be stable and mature enough to handle this situation. Very admirable on what youre about to try, but things arent always as easy as they seem. Good luck and Happy Holidays

normally you have to be considered to be a legal adult, which can vary in different states and country's, it might be 18 one place and 21 somewhere else, check with your local government,for the local law on that. there my be other extenuating factors involved,so make clear your specific situation
