First, being a mother is irrelevant, because having a child does not emancipate a person. In Florida, at 16, a petition for emancipation can be filed with the court. In order for emancipation to be granted you would have to prove, among other things, that you are capable of fully supporting yourself and your child (rent, utilities, food, etc) *without any assistance* (note: they would likely consider child support to be legitimate income and not a form of assistance). Most likely, the judge would also require that you remain in school. You would have to convince the court that it's truly in your best interest to be emancipated. That means you must have legitimate, valid reasons. Just not getting along with your parents or wanting more freedom is not going to be enough. Here's a link with some emancipation info for the state of Florida (click on '743.015 Disabilities of nonage; removal'): http://www.flsenate.gov/statutes/index.cfm?App_modeCh0743/ch0743.htm EDIT: For some reason, the link won't copy right. Go to Google and key in 'Florida Statutes 743.015 DISABILITY OF NONAGE OF MINORS REMOVED'
