If you have a child does that legally emancipate you in Nevada?
Having a child does not emancipate a minor. To become emancipated, the minor would have to petition the court, and it would have to be granted by a judge. It's rarely granted in any state. The fact that a minor has a child does not give them any advantage, and in fact, it generally makes it even moredifficult for them to become emancipated (for a multitude of reasons).
Can a fifteen-year-old emancipate herself from her parents if they have irreconcilable differences?
No. The few states that have procedures for the emancipation of minors require the minor be at least 16-years of age. Even if said minor was the required age "irreconcilable differences" would not be valid grounds for the action.
Can a 17-year-old legally enroll herself in a new school and move in with her 21-year-old boyfriend without parental consent?
No to both questions UNLESS the minor has been emancipated. NO judge will emancipate a minor so that she can move in with her adult boyfriend. That is NOT the purpose of emancipation.
