Only a few US states allow a minor to petition for emancipation rights.

The terms are established by the laws of the resident state.

The length of time for adjudication process depends upon the court schedule, the number of pending cases and the presiding judge.

Emancipation of minors is rarely granted in any state.

It depends what state, province, or country you live in.

In states such as California, NY, Alaska, Florida, Illinois, and Nevada, adult adoption is readily available with few restrictions. This also applies to Canadian provinces such as Ontario, Alberta, Nova Scotia, and Saskatchewan.

In other places, restrictions apply. Example: in Alabama you may only adopt an adult if he/she is "totally and permanently disabled" or "determined to be mentally retarded." In British Columbia, an adult can be adopted if they were financially supported by the potential adopter while a minor.

In other states and provinces, the court has ruled it cannot be done.

Adult adoption is a legal process that has historical roots in Roman times, and was frequently used throughout the last 2000 years to establish legal inheritance rights between adults. It precedes laws that deal with the legal adoption of infants (mainly instituted under child welfare laws dating to the mid 19th century).

Besides inheritance rights, former foster parents may want to adopt the adult they fostered as a child, and natural parents may want to "adopt-back" the adult son or daughter they surrendered to adoption as an infant, especially if the surrender involved fraud or coercion.

Persons who are developmentally disabled are also eligible to have a court appointed guardian or Guardian Ad Litem, if it is necessary.

If she is being hit by her mother, tell her to speak to an authority figure like the police, or a teacher. Good luck
