Can I base an emancipation case on my parents being divorced and my dad and I argue almost every day and my mom won't let me live there all the time but I go back and forth between my mom and dads every other week and that putting a lot of stress on me and my school preformance?

Perhaps some answers can be found here: Emancipation of a Minor: Emancipation means that a minor has the same legal rights and obligations as an 18-year-old adult. The Minnesota Statutes do not provide either the grounds or a procedure for emancipation. Minnesota case law has established that a minor can be emancipated by a legal marriage or by parental consent. For additional information see, Youth and the Law: A Guide for Legislators, p. 45-46. http://www.leg.state.mn.us/LRL/Issues/Legalage.asp
