You really should go for the family situation because most likely you do not have a plan of supporting yourself if you choose emancipation. I am somewhat surprised the counselors would even give you this option because generally the stipulations are you have to have a job and show the Judge you are capable and so forth before he would consider emancipation

Your case workers and the family should handle the whole process and all you have to do is appear before the Judge and say that is your wish.
