You can only be emancipated in most States if you are self supporting and it appears you are not. She also can't just take your baby.

She CAN, depending on your age when you got pregnant, have your boyfriend arrested for having sex with you.

You need an adult to take charge here - your boyfriend's mother or father, Grandmother, your stepfather, someone who can consult with an Attorney and find out what the options are.

What State are you in? It will make a difference.
