No. In NYC a parent has to support a child until the child is 21 years old or becomes emancipated. Emancipation means a child is living separately and independently from a parent, or is self-supporting.


Can you get emancipated in nebraska for not getting along with your parents I dont get along with my parents that much anymore im sixteen and i can support myself i make 900 dollars a month?

Not getting along with your parents is not enough to justify emancipation, or there wouldn't be a teenager living at home anywhere. And $900 a month is below poverty level.

Can a 16-year-old living with grandparents who have not been appointed legal guardians be emancipated without the grandparents' permisson?

Can a 15 year old get emancipated just because she is pregnant?

No. A 15 year old is still a minor, but now one with a child. Becoming pregnant does not make a minor emancipated. To become emancipated a minor child needs to go before a judge to have him/her determine if she can support herself and the baby. The judge will want to know the means of support and other living conditions. Being emancipated means that a person can support themselves, have a job, pay the rent, pay for babysitting, and do all things needed to live. I doubt that a judge will allow a 15 year old minor to become emancipated with a baby without the needed support.


Does the father have to pay child support if the child lives on their own in Mississippi?

A minor child should not be living on their own. If the child has been legally emancipated the parent may be excused from paying child support. Otherwise, they will be assessed if the custodial parent files a petition for child support with the court. At that time the fact of the child living on their own can be brought to the attention of the court.A minor child should not be living on their own.

Can a 17 year old boy who was adopted by his grandparents be emancipated and live on his social security disability?

Emancipation laws vary by state, but in general, being adopted by grandparents does not automatically grant emancipation. Additionally, social security disability benefits may not be enough to cover living expenses. It's important for the teenager to consult with a legal guardian or attorney to explore their options and ensure a stable living situation.
