I will be 17 in July and I am 7 months pregnant. I want to be emancipated. I do not live at home right now. I live at the Baptist Children's Home in Owasso. My parents told me I could leave from here and go home on my birthday next month but they have just recently changed their mind. I want to move out of here so badly but they say they won't let me. So I have been looking at apartment prices, buying a cheap, used car, medical expences. One of my good friends offered me to live with her and her mom. We have the same job and same hours so until I get my car we could go together everyday. I can use the Indian Hospital in Claremore for all me and my baby's medical needs, and I would be able to get on soonercare. I am currently on WIC and I use a First Nurse. So I am really trying to get proper care for me and my baby. I am doing my schooling online next year for free, I have already applied and been accepted. Also, my mom thought it might be a good idea for me to be emancipated because I would be eligible for different kinds of financial aide and get some extra help.
So with all of this being said, would I be able to get emancipated? I have a job, a place to live, and my medical stuff covered. Can I legally be emancipated? If not, what else would I need to do to become emancipated? How long does emancipation take?
