I would wait until you are 19 to return.how long does it take to become a resident of another state. how do i go about doing so?? once i am emancipated can i return to alabama on my own?

First, I think you should drop any ideas of emancipation. It's not going to happen and trying to force the issue by moving out of state would simply mess up your life.no im not willing to drop out of school. it's my senior year and i have a 3.54 GPA and a 22 on the ACT. im planning on going to college. but i hate being in the group home im in. i recently had MAT asessment, and it came back saying that i needed to be placed in transitional living program, meaning an apartment. but my social worker does not agree with it and is making excuses to keep from moving me now. now she's saying that she wants to wait untill the end of the school semester to move me. but school just started and this school run 7 periods and the place that i may be going runs 4 blocks, so either way my credits are going to be screwed up whether she moves me now or later.
Then start getting creative here. If you went to guidance, they might find a volunteer who could help you prepare for interviews, etc. There are people in the community who ARE willing to help. If I was closer to you, I would volunteer, but I'm not.well that's not the problem. it's just the fact that i'm unable to prepare myself for life outside of living in group homes because they won't allow me to do anything. now dont get me wrong im very smart and resposible with my money and such. but ive never worked a paid job or even done an interview.....ect
