Q: I'm 17,I have a job and am getting my drivers license soon and want to move out but I heard first I must become emancipated first. how can I go about this situation?
A: David's Answer: There are several considerations to doing this before you take action. First, you may forfeit you ability to receive support from either parent if you move out without their consent. Second, you would then potentially lose their support if you wish to attend college. -- David Bliven, Westchester Family Law lawyer (www.blivenlaw.net)
