Hi my name is scott, and i was imancipated at age 16 its a
hard thing to do, u must show the courts that u have a steady
source of income wich is 40hrs a week from a job, a place to
live, that your bills are being paied, and that u are still
going to school, i wasnt aloud to miss more then three days of
school this year since i am imancipated, its not as easy as
people thin, but if u wanna do it go for it, life only gets
hardder when your imancipated...
