    I have never heard of a 12 yr old getting emancipated. Usually it is more like a 17 yr old that has a job and can pay their own bills. Your friend does not have much of a chance at that. It's not as simple as 'he can come and live with me'. If he is being abused he needs to talk to a counselor at school. They will get the police involved and CPS will probably take him out of the home and place him with a relative until he is 18.

    As you're conscious, TN does no longer have an emancipation statute (a technique in place by which a minor can petition for emancipation). No, you could no longer petition for emancipation in a state in which you're no longer a criminal resident. Nor are you able to even commute for the duration of state line without parental permission. No, getting pregnant does no longer make it 'greater ordinary', it would make it plenty, plenty, plenty greater durable (ie very almost impossible) to be authorized. And the mere actuality which you asked that proves which you haven't any longer have been given any awareness of emancipation/what the point of it rather is. with the aid of the way, at 15 you're under the age of sexual consent, so it’s unlawful for everyone to have sexual touch of any form with you. except you like boyfriend to finally finally end up in penal complex, with a intercourse criminal label for something of his existence, he greater suited shop in his palms to himself.
