I'm not sure what you're asking. Is it that you want to be emancipated from one parent so that you can live with the other? If that's the case, then it's not an emancipation issue, it's a custody issue between the parents. And very few judges will consider anyone for emancipation under the age of 16, even if emancipation is allowable in the state.
