Emancipation of a minor

Emancipation is also considered Divorce. Whoever suggests or encourages this process is not out to help a child, but to hurt the child's parents. Emancipation is permanently severing ties legally with one's parents.

FAFSA does not recognize emancipation.

You are expected to totally support yourself financially-housing, food, etc., BUT you are subject to child labor laws until the age of majority if you are emancipated.

It is a crime to have sex with anyone unless you get married. You or your partner can be arrested for having sex with a minor.

Unless you are a rich child actor like Macauly Caulkin, it is impossible to support yourself financially as a minor.

In order to receive federal aid, such as food stamps, you have to be living with an adult and file under their name, even if emancipated. But your main income cannot be welfare while emancipated.

You have to provide your own health insurance. If you receive ANY support from parents, your emancipation becomes null and void.

Many minors that think they need to become emancipated show by their very actions that they are not emotionally, mentally, spiritually, or physically ready to become an adult. It is like a 13 year old wanting to be married.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it!!!!
