Hey there.
My family and I have a very, very strained relationship. My dad used to hit me a lot (leaving bruises, welts, etc.) and social services were called multiple times. Nothing really happened except my dad had to take anger management classes. He gradually became better and better (going from physical abuse, to mental abuse, and then trying to "atone"). Sadly, by the time I was around 13 I was already beginning to abuse substances as a way to cope. I've been cited for underage possession and running away (multiple times each). As of today, January 6, 2024, I have four upcoming court appearances: one running away, three underage possession (2 times for nicotine, 1 time for nicotine and marijuana (under a ounce so a citation).
As of now, I have planned everything out. I have a job lined up, a place to rent (I plan to rent out a room in my friend's house), an in-depth finance plan, and decent grades. However, my parents refuse to allow me to accept the job and actually move out, which is what I believe is required before emancipation. It's frustrating because I know for a fact I can support myself, my parents just won't let me.
I hope this was a good enough explanation of my situation. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Here are my questions:
1. Is it possible to be emancipated even with a record?
2. Do I need to actively be out of the house and working at the time I submit my petition or can I do those things after being emancipated? I ask this because after emancipation, my parents have no say in whether I get a job or move out.
3. Can my parents refuse to tell me my SSN? Or at least the last four digits so I can get a certification of age (for a job).
I'll update if I think of anymore questions!! Any replies discouraging me from being emancipated/telling me I'm stupid/generally unhelpful will be ignored
