Age of Majority is 19; Relief of Minor Children from Disabilities is only available in Alabama to minors over age of 18. Yes, you can and should talk to social services about protecting him. And kudos for being willing to take him in.
If you mean after turning 18, no. Some states and some support agreements last after 18 or until school is over. If you mean by getting emancipated by the courts before you are 18, one of the requirements you have to fill to be emancipated is to be able to support yourself with a job and a place to live etc. So no.
No. The guardian of a minor child cannot "relieve" the parent of their child support obligation. That power is reserved for the courts. If the guardian doesn't need it to help support the child then it should be deposited into a trust with the child as the sole beneficiary at college time.
Yes, if your granddaughter is living with you, and being taken care of by you, then you are her guardian. In other words, being a guardian is not so much a legal status as it is a relationship. If the relationship exists, then you are the guardian.
The age of emancipation in California is 18 years. Prior to their 18th birthday (unless already declared an 'emancipated minor' by the courts) she is not free to act on her own behalf. FURTHER CAUTION: What is the age of her 'boyfriend?' If he is over 18 and she is under 18 he could be flirting with 'Statutory Rape' and his parents with 'aiding and abetting.'

Your mom's permission doesn't negate the need to go through the courts. To be emancipated, it has to be on file, which your mom cannot do.
not if there are courts orders
A guardian ad-litem is appointed by the courts
Only if the minor has legally been "emancipated" by action of the courts.
Yes, I think you have the right to petition the courts and ask to be emancipated.
They can talk to a Coast Guard recruiter and get in the DEP program and try to enter early, or try to become emancipated through the courts. In both cases you will need your GED if you haven't yet graduated from high school.
To get emancipated you would have to go to the courts and prove you can live on your own. Then you will have to do things on your own because your parents would not be legally responsible for you anymore.
