I would really try to see if there is a probono lawyer you could possibly use (maybe in conjunction with UPenn) or even just call some kind of emergency hotline in your state that has a legal advocate. womenslaw.org is really helpful. They give you lots of different information for people that...
Please don't insult me cbg. In Alabama i can be emancipated at 16 I believe and I know for sure at 18. I know that I won't be though because everything goes to this one judge who would never emancipate me. Also in Alabama I can marry at 18 with no parent consent or anything like that. AND it is...
my mom does have joint legal custody, and sole physical custody as of now. we are trying to take measures before he has any physical custody of me. i agree though best to leave mom out of it

Courts don't listen to our psychiatrist or what I want. My father will take me away through the courts if I don't figure a way out. I would rather go to jail than live with him and risk being emotionally and physically abused even worse. I am 17 but I will be 18 in a month and a half. In...
I have a horrible situation with my father. My mom has sole physical custody but they have joint legal custody. My Dad is incredibly emotionally abusive. He has the courts in his back pocket somehow and they won't listen to me or the family psychologist. They just do whatever he wants. I am...
