If you have a place to live can you get emancipated at the age of sixteen?

Answer 1

Do you mean living on your own or moving in without someone else and depending on them for financial support? The purpose of emancipation is to allow a mature teenager to live *on their own*. They must be able to fully support themselves (rent/utilities/food/etc) with no assistance. You would also have to provide the court with a legitimate reason that emancipation would be in your best interest. Just not getting along with your parents or wanting more freedom is not going to be enough. Check your state laws for more information on their requirements.

Answer 2

As far as I'm aware, in every state if you legally marry, then you are automatically considered to be an emancipated minor. (06/13/09) Why would you want to? It is a statistical fact that relationships involving people who co-habitat and/or get married prior to age 24 have an 85% failure rate. Biologically, this is when females reach full mature on the physical, emotional, and hormonal levels. At this point, a woman is fully prepared to have and handle children, as well as a male that is still not fully mature.

Males don't reach full physical and hormonal maturity until age 30. This is also when they reach their peak emotional maturity, but not to the point of being fully independent. Half of the male emotional health comes from a woman. The biochemical frequency range of the male brain adjusts itself to match that of the female, developing an emotional symbiotic relationship.

Couples who begin cohabiting and/or get married prior to age 24 can find themselves drawing away from each other as each reaches full maturity. Their whole view of the world, and each other, changes. This doesn't happen to all couples, but clearly it is a factor in most relationship breakdowns.

Cohabiting couples breakup three times more than married couples. Cohabiting couples that later marry have a 46% higher rate of divorce than those who did not cohabit prior to marriage.

Answer 3

well you need to emancipate yourself from them, so you'd need a valid reason and proof, you'd most probs have to go to court. The other way to be emancipated is if your pregnant or you get married..but you'd need parental permission to do so..
