text: immancipation? i am a 16 year old living in chicago and i was wondering how would i go about getting my self immancipated. there are several requirments for emancipation, one is that you stay in school, and apparently you need to do just that as evidenced by you poor spelling. then you must be working and can prove that you can pay your rent (no roommates), pay for transportation to and from school and work, can afford to uy your own groceries and be able to produce health insurance and proof that you can pay for your medical bills.   rarely is emancipation the answer to parental problems, many adults cant afford to live on their own much less a 16 year old, uneducated child.
