I don't know much about emancipation, but I can very much relate to what you are going through. I am 30 now and can tell you that life does get better. I would recommend doing an internet search on counseling and advocacy services. Your city probably has a department of youth and community development, or something similar, that offers lots of free programs for people your age. I would go speak to a counselor who can either help you through the emancipation process, or help you cope with your situation until you are old enough to be independent.
I would also recommend getting involved with any sports teams, writing workshops, art programs or anything that your city offers for free (your government probably lists this online). Maybe you could also get involved with some volunteer work. Anything that gets you out of the house and doing stuff for you. These activities give you great things to put on your resume so you can get a better job in order to support yourself in the future, and never feel the need to ask your family for money. |

in order to be emancipated you need a lawyer and a way to show the courts that you are going to have a way to support yourself and a place to live. basically you will have to drop out of school to have a full time job to maintain a lifestyle that can support you. really i would just stay in the house, and finish school. when you are done enroll in the police academy. |

Not happening. First you must be able to support yourself and a residence financially and take care of your self emotionally and socially. IN FL you also need both parents signatures
To obtain a court order the minor must be at least 16 years of age. The PETITION FOR EMANCIPATION OF A MINOR, enclosed in this Packet, must be completed and filed by the minor’s parent(s) or legal guardian, or if none then by a guardian ad litem
The petition must show the court:
1. That the minor is independent and able to support him or herself, and
his or her child, if any.
2. A specific plan for meeting the needs of the minor if the minor is not
supporting him or herself at the time of petitioning.
3. The he or she is not dependent on public benefits.
4. The reasons why the minor needs to be emancipated.
5. Evidence that the removal of disabilities of nonage is in the best
interest of the minor.
If the petition is not signed by both parents, the nonpetitioning parent will need Service of Process…to be served by means of a Summons and a copy of the petition and all accompanying documents, if any, by a Deputy Sheriff. See INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUMMONS: PERSONAL SERVICE ON AN INDIVIDUAL enclosed in this Packet. The nonpetitioning parent will have twenty (20) days from date of service of the Summons in which to file an Answer to the petition. The SUMMONS, included in this Packet, must be executed by the Clerk or a Deputy Clerk. If the whereabouts of the nonpetitioning parent are unknown, the petitioning parent may use Constructive Service provided the petitioning parent makes an actual, diligent search to discover the location of, and provide notice to, the nonpetitioning parent. |

Not one word of your question even hinted that you have a means to support yourself, as well as finish school. That is what emancipation is about... showing the court that you are capable of providing for yourself.
The other option would be to prove that you are being endangered by physical abuse. That means, being placed in foster care. It does sound that the situation is one that could use some intervention (counseling, perhaps), but it is somewhat iffy as to whether cps would find neglect or abuse.
Your best option would be to ask a counselor at school for some referrals. |

Talk to your school counselor. They will know who to contact.
Good luck. |

You can at 16.But Wikianswers says you need your parents permition. Remember there are always loopholes. Go to your local library and research it (see if there are updated law books). I would say ask your school counsolor but that may backfire. Good Luck |

Do you have a job and a place to live? A judge will ask how you propose to support yourself. If you aren't ready, a judge won't let you go. If you feel you're being abused, tell your parents how you feel, if they don't listen, you might try CPS. |

You never need parental consent for emancipation. Go to child protective services or call the police (non-emergency line) or contact a lawyer. |

You could petition the courts in Florida with the help of a social worker. |

Call child services, or go to a friend's house for a while. Other than that, there's not much to do but wait.Good luck |

grow up before you talk about leaving the nest. There is much you don't know about life yet. Maybe your parents are only trying to help you in their own way.
Take time to learn more of life. After all you're only 16. NO ONE IS PERFECT . I bet your parents want the best for you, and they don't know how to show it in the way you want them to.
That doesn't mean they don't love you. |

I don't think you need your parents. When I went to go do it, they just said that I needed prof that I could have a job, take care of myself and still have a good GPA in school. I'm not sure about in Florida.
I'm sorry about your home life. That's the same reason why I needed to get out so bad! But i couldn't get emancipated. I ended up in and out of jail for about 2 years.
If you really want to get out of your house and you cant do it that way. I go to Job Corps. It's a trade school. You can even go to ones in different states. I go to grand rapids MI. If you want to be a police officer then you can take security.
You live on center. It isn't that great but trust me when I say its way better then home. You only have to be 16 to go.
Good luck! |

Your teachers at school will know what you can do but because f your age the only suggestions they would give are probably to have you fostered or place you as ward of the state which would mean you going in to a children's home. |

Stop Abusing the Report Button!

you just have to file for it with the local court
the only way you need parent consent is if you are trying to get married before your 18 because you are automaticlly emacipated when you get married.
rarely though do courts grant it.
you have to have a plan for life and proof you will be able to support yourself finicially and provide to all of your own needs.
you will also have to have proof that you have a house to stay in or apartment or really anywhere just so that you have a place to live..... |

The only way is for you to get married. While in Virginia it is easy enough to do without your parents consent at age 16, I do not know about Florida. Look on Google for Florida.gov and emancipation. That should give you an answer. |
