No. The economic status of the minor's family is not relevant. The ability of the minor to be gainfully employed and be able to support themselves financially and handle their personal affairs without adult intervention is the basis of an emancipation decree being awarded. Be advised, only a few US states have grounds and procedures for the action. It is a misconception that any minor can file for emancipation and be granted such, the reality is that the emancipation of a minor is rarely granted by any court under any conditions.

What is necessary for a 17-year-old to be emancipated if his mother is willing to sign the papers in Tennessee?
The state does not have grounds nor procedures for the emancipation of a minor. Parents need to file a voluntary termination of parental rights petition in the appropriate state court (usually probate) in the county of residence. A hearing date will be set and the minor child and his or her parents will be required to appear before a judge to answer specific questions concerning the petition. Some of the actions that could be taken are; the judge could grant the petition and declare the minor emancipated; deny the petition and order the parties to attend family counseling sessions; grant the petition and make the minor a ward of the state, or other actions available under laws of the state.

Yes, if the parents file a petition with an Arkansas court requesting the minor be taken into custody and returned to the family home. Or if the minor is taken into custody by Texas authorities for any reason. Adults who allow a minor to reside in their home without having received permission from the minor's parents or guardian are subject to criminal charges and civil action. It is a violation of federal law for a minor to cross state lines without parental permission. (18 USC 2243 & 18 USC 2423).
