Extremely "slim to none". Judges do not arbtrarily mandate emancipation decrees. If minor child believes they are in an abusive and/or neglectful environment they can contact Youth Emergency Service Hotline 1-800-899-KIDS(5437), Crisis Intervention Agencies Line 1-888-644-HOPE (4673), their state social services division, an adult they can trust, and so forth. If immediate danger is perceived contact the local police or 911. A minor cannot be emancipated or removed from the parental home, simply because they don't want to live there any longer or they don't like the rules, chores, etc.

Can a sixteen year old be emancipated in Indiana?

Emancipation is up to the judge. If you can show a clear ability to support yourself and show a reason why you want to be on your own, the judge may grant it. In the few cases I have seen, the judge will grant emancipation where a minor has a criminal complaint, or civil complaint against the parents or foster home. Usually an abusive environment is always cause. Other causes are the minor's desire and ability to follow a career path or educational path that requires relocation. Sometimes one wants to go to a different school. If the parents are OK with that and are willing to provide support, the judge may accept that as well. Usually a minor as young as 14 can file for emancipation. Try this link: http://www.in.gov/legislative/ic/code/title31/ar35/ The link has the articles regarding emancipation of a minor in Indiana.
