Best Answer

A parent does not emancipate a minor. The minor emancipates himself. In order to be emancipated, the child would file documents with the appropriate court in the area where he lives. The determination varies from state to state, but typically he must show that there is some reason why his parents should no longer be responsible for him, and he must show that he is physically and financially capable of providing for himself.
