i think children should be able to do whatever they want and if there parents do not have a relationship with them and the child has tried reaching out but nothing i believe that children can get emancipated if they have a place to live besides the streets and have a way of getting schooling and shelter and clothing, and food. No matter what age they are children should be able to get emancipated.
Unless you are legally emancipated, you're parents have control over where you go to school, what state you live in, etc. If you are 17, it is most likely that you aren't emancipated yet, and your parents have complete power over where you live. You could take this issue to court and do what you can to be legally emancipated before the age of 18, and you'd be able to live wherever you wanted to.
There is usually no reason to be emancipated once you reach the age of majority. And in most states that is 18. So either you live in a state were the age is over 18 or there is a court order. Consult an attorney for specific details in your state.
No, if you are pregnant and under the age of 18 you are not leagally emancipated from your parents at all until you are 18 then you can be on your own. Just because you have a baby doesn't mean your an adult.
{| |- | If your parents give permision, otherwise, no, you certainly cannot. You must be an adult to decide where you wish to live. Until your reach the age of majority your parents are responsible for you, including where you live. |}

Yes, the parent remains responsible. Until they reach the age of majority, normally 18 or are emancipated, they remain the responsibility of the parents. They determine where the child can live.
{| |- | You can not get emancipated. You are the responsibility of your parents until you reach the age of majority. In most states that means until you reach the age of 18. |}
{| |- | When they reach the age of 18 in most states they are considered emancipated. At that point the parents are no longer responsible for them. Until then, they are kind of stuck. |}
{| |- | You are automatically emancipated when you reach the age of 18. There is no specific action that has to be taken. The parents no longer have any responsibility for the child. |}
