Best Answer

The steps for being emancipated are actually quite difficult. You have to set up a court date with a judge. When you go to court you will have to be able to prove that you are fully capable of caring for yourself with no assisstance. But that doesn't always mean you have to live by yourself. Also when you go before the judge you will have to be able to show evidence that you would be better off without your parents. This is a difficult step. Judges will however look favorably upon people who do have jobs and their own means of transportation.

The first step is to know whether your state even offers the option. About half the states don't have statutes to allow emancipation. Parental consent helps a lot, but they will have to be notified regardless of whether the agree or not. The other key is that the minor must be capable of taking care of them selves both financially and physically.
