I can understand why you want to make up names….but it has nothing to do with “censorship”

Do you mean a mental institution?

If it is, then just say so.

If you want to be emancipated, you have to show some kind of maturity!

Sorry, still getting the immature vibe here. Every teenager fights with their parents (and sometimes even more so with step-parents).


NO IT’S NOT!!!

Since she is your legal guardian, she has every right to monitor your phone calls.

It is only illegal for the phone call to be used as evidence against you in court.


Where did you say that?

How old are you?

Honestly, if this is an indication of your maturity, I would never grant you emancipation.

As to your question, you did not state your age or location, so giving specific advice would be hard.

Can you live on your own?

You live with your former step-dad. Why not just continue living with him? Your adoptive mom doesn’t seem to care, so what is the problem?

If you do have a good job and good grades (which apparently you said more than once), continue with that. Stay with your ex step dad and then go to college, etc.

Hi,
In all your posted question, I do not see how old you are.
If you are a teen, living at home, then you might as well forget about living somewhere on your own.
You can get help from Ala-Non, or any support groups, free, talking with others with the same problems and experiences.
I do wish you the best, and please look in your local phone book, call a support group for teens.

Emancipation is a state law, and also varies from judge to judge since actually each judge will have to base each case on many issues that cannot be written into law, like maturity, the reasons, and so on.

1. your age
2. your state you live in
3. who you are living with now, if not legal parent or guardian, why not with the parent, and is this with the parents approval.
4. Will the legal guardian ( that is your actual adopted father and mother) will they fight the emancipation, and will either want custody if you are not currently living with either.
5. The reasons for your desire, while this is a very said story, a person unless the have been harmed merley not likely a parent is not really enoug, and getting divorced and marrying someone the child does not like is not a reason either, it will make you unhappy but not a reason to leave your home. Are you unsafe, is there mental, emotional or physcial abuse, and can it be proved if there is.
8. Does the person make enough money to support there self is the one biggest issue, are they still going to school, normally required

On the boyfriend issue, not enough details, if he is 20 and your 15 yep he can go to jail and perhaps should, if he is 18 and you are 13 same deal,
Now if you are 16 and he is 17 that is different.


And it appears you already live with a step dad and he must be a great guy to let you keep living there when he has no legal responsiblity to.

So your first step is to have answers to all the above and hire an attorney if you beleive you meet them.
