The life that you would have to live trying not to be found would be much worse than anything you could be experiencing at home. Im supposing that you are quite young so that will prevent you from getting a job at least not a legal one, and with no way to support yourself you will have to find someone who will. Remember that nothing is for free so something will be expected of you for anything that you get that is why there are so many teen prostitutes on the street and so many dead every year. With no one watching out for you or providing you with a safe place to live the predators out there will find you easy pickings and almost sure that no one will even know you are gone. Remember that the kind of people that would take you in are probably living life on the wrong side of the law which gets you into lots of trouble with the kinds of things that you will have to do to earn your room and board.Some things you can look forward to are hunger, illness, prison, desparation, and death. If it a question of abuse at home then seek help from school or social services dont be embarrased to look for help on this it can cause changes for the good at home or at least keep a roof over your head and food in your belly.

How does a 16-year-old in the State of Iowa become emancipated?
not muchEmancipation has the same stipulation's as basic custody law. Its "what's best", not what makes the child happy that desides custody rights. Wait until your 17, which I know seems long away. However trying to emancipate yourself at 16 is a waste of time, because it could take a year or more to complete anywase, considering you apparently have no legal standing).The State of Iowa does not have statutory emancipation procedures for minors. The legal age of majority for the state is 18.

Since you haven't included any details the following is general information.

If the parent voluntarily consented to the change in custody they can petition the same court to end that guardianship and restore custody in the parent.Since you haven't included any details the following is general information.
