My name is Katie and im 15 years old. My parents have
fought ever since I had been born, but they won't get a
divorce. My mom has called the cops on me many times, for
being out when i wasn't supposed to be. I would really
like to be imancipated because I know i can support myself
in all the ways needed. I have a job, and I work as many
hours a week that I can. My mom used to be in a mental
institution. She lied on her evaluation so she could get
out. She verbally abuses me and I try not to let it get to
me, but she treats me like im 4 years old and can't cross
the road without holding onto someone's hand. I've been
taking care of myself emotionally since I was little. My
mom hasn't care, and my dad doesn't know how to reach me.
I trust my dad, because we have an equal level of respect
for each other. I would already have a place to live and I
would still be in school. I don't want to end up like my
mom, because everyone is literally afraid of her. I don't
want that happening to me. She gets mood swings over
little things, like laughing when something is funny.
Lately i have been getting mood swings, but not too often.
I turn 16 at the beginning of january, and I'm going to
try to get imancipated then. I live in Michigan, and i
know a few people who got imancipated because of the same
reasoning. I'm just wondering if it would be possible for
me to be imancipated too. Please respond. ~Katie
