It means being set free. In the case of a teenager being emancipated from their parents, it means they are legally considered an adult and can make their own decisions and live where they want to. In the case of slavery in the United States, the Emancipation Proclamation "emancipated" the slaves; it set them free from slavery.

The emancipation of women is a campaign to give women equal rights and status with men. At one time women could not vote. Now they can. At one time women could not own property. Now they can. At one time men could not be accused of beating or raping their wives. Now they can be. At one time women received inferior education and wages compared to men. At one time a mans wealth went to his oldest son, not oldest daughter. The throne of England still passes to the monarch's eldest son, or male children of the monarchs eldest son. So girls, progress has been made but you still have some way to go. And a lot depends on where you live. I am sorry if it is in the Middle East.

being emancipated is wen you are under the age of 18 and want to be considered an adult and basically do whatever you want and not have anyone down your bak. BUT!!!! Be sure you prove to the court your old enuf to have a steady job stay in skul and be able to support yourself all ALONE. meaning NOT LIVING WITH NOBODY! and even then if your parents dnt want to sign the papers to legally get you emancipated the dnt have to. you'll have to prove to the court that living on your own is better for you. which is hard. Its dif for every state. But i Def kno that just cuz you dnt wna listen to your parents or there rules... is NOT a valid reason. trust me.... I tried to get emancipated on my own cuz i got preg at 17. instead i got married.... its not easy

It means that you are legally considered an adult for purposes of contracting and criminal actions. It also means that you are entirely responsible for your welfare and support and your parents are not required to take care of you any more.

It means that a court has declared the minor to be an adult for purposes of contract. It means they are responsible for their own welfare. In the US, not all states allow emancipation.
