Can a 13 year old be emancipated in California?

Answer 1

I don't believe it is age based but you have to be able to completely prove you are solely capable of supporting yourself. But don't jump the gun. Even though i can imagine why, it will only make things harder for you. If your home life isn't that bad then maybe consider staying even if it's 4 years you have left.

Answer 2

{| |- | Emancipation does not require parental consent. California does have an emancipation statute, CA Family law 7120. The court decides whether emancipation should be granted or not. They usually take the parents' desires into consideration. They do not want the child to become a ward of the state instead of being taken care of by the parents. |}

Answer 3

To be emancipated in California you need to prove to a judge you can support yourself. This means the ability to pay rent, buy food, pay for the car, electric bill, and to hold a job. A minor must be at least 16 years old.

Answer 5

Under 18 is a minor in every state of the US

Answer 6

Having a child has nothing to do with being emancipated. It would be very difficult to show she can take care of herself and the child without a good job and support system behind her.
