    Question: I am 17 and I live with my mom and dad but I hate it here. They never help me or any of my sisters they are lazy. I mean I hate it here. I have a place I could go and live but I don't think my parents would let me move out and live with someone else. Is there any way to get around that? I don't want to get them in trouble I just HATE it here. Thanks!

    Answer: Most adolescents hate living with their parents. Unfortunately, just because you hate it there doesn't mean you get to leave. There are laws recently passed on emancipation. Check the lawforkids section on this topic.

    okay, so i wear these wristbands, that I bought with MY money, but my dad took them away and won't let me wear them, same with a pair of pants that i owned. is this enough to be able to be emancipated or at least any way that i am allowed to have them back through the court system or something like that?
