You can't. If you live in a state that requires parental consent for emancipation, the court cannot force a minor's parents to agree to the action. In cases of abuse or neglect the state's division of children's protective services will investigate the charges and if it is found necessary the case will be heard by a judge who will decide what if any action should be taken to remove the parents of their rights to the child. When parental rights are terminated the child is placed in the custody of the state and appointed a guardian or placed in a foster home.

What is the legal age in Philadelphia to move out?

Unless you have been legally emancipated by a Court of Law, or by marriage (which is an act of permanent emancipation), you must be 18 years old before you are legally an adult. You could move out with your parents permission, but they would still be legally responsible for you. For example, you cannot legally sign a lease agreement unless you are an adult, so your parents would have to sign the lease for you to get an apartment. And then they (not you) would be responsible for the lease agreement.
