You'll need to talk to a lawyer to get the process started, or if there is abuse start with the police. If you want to try to go it alone dig into Wisconsin state law at http://folio.legis.state.wi.us. See, especially, the law on "TERMINATION OF PARENTAL RIGHTS." Termination of parental rights is not the same thing as emancipation. Termination of parental rights is normally used in cases of adoption/an abandoned, abused or neglected child who is being placed in the custody of the state/or a similar type of situation. Wisconsin does not have a specific law under which a minor can petition the court for early emancipation.

What are the laws on being emancipated in Wisconsin?

(2) A minor who has GIVEN birth (pregnancy does not qualify). (3) A minor who has been emancipated by court order. (4) A minor emancipated by parental consent.
