Be a resident of a state that allows emancipation.
Follow the state statute for the exact process, but it typically requires notification of the parents, proof that they can handle their own affairs, including financial and living arrangements, reasons why their parents should no longer be responsible for their actions.

If the child(ren) are abused they should go to Child Welfare (that's what we call it in Canada) or to a close relative.
