Thank you very much. This information was very helpful. I will be in contact with them, and let them do their jobs and come to their own conclusion.

Th Thank you, I will do that. And my mother took me out of school today (independent study), even though I only had a couple weeks left of school. She refuses to put me into a school, so I will not be able to finish the semester, and I will be behind.

I was in independent study. She already physically went and signed papers to take me out of school. I was almost finished with the semester? And she refuses to put me into a school, so I won't be able to finish.

Ah. That's understandable. Who would I report this to?

But I'm not truant? My mom removed me from school.

No. Is this legal?

I previously posted about seeking emancipation, but my plans have changed. 3 days ago my mother locked me outside of the house at night in 40 degree weather for an hour with no shoes and in very thin pajamas. Because I had an attitude. Before that, she also hit me in the nose. She would not let...

That makes so much sense. Thank you.

What about a monthly income of $1,800? That's more than enough to support myself.

Thank you for letting me know. What would the law consider a valid need for emancipation? What makes the small percentage of successful emancipations successful?

May I ask you why you believe so strongly that it won't happen?

Precisely why I asked:)

Of course. Which is exactly why I believe that the people that are providing me with accurate information, and taking time out of their day to help me should be treated kindly and fairly and with the respect that they deserve:) that's all.

in Honestly, I find that a very rude thing to say. If you cannot act with respect toward the other people on this thread, please refrain from leaving anymore comments.

Thank you for all of this helpful information. I truly appreciate it.

Thank you for the advice:) I have chosen to pursue emancipation, so I most definitely will leave that out of it.

Indeed I have. I am not trying to get emancipated on the basis of abuse, but because I have the finances and insurance to provide for myself. I only mentioned abuse to give context. And child protective services has been involved before, but nothing happened due to lack of evidence and my...
