What is the name of your state? Texas.
I want to move in with a friend of mine and her parents while I attend school in Tennessee. I would be employed and paying $250 a month as rent, to cover food and various school expenses. I lived in TN for 5 years before being forced to move to Texas with my parents this past August. Unfortunately, they won't let me go back under any circumstances, unless I drop out of high school (something I don't want to do just to return to TN, but I may just have to).
Right now I'm 15, but by the time I'd be moving (end of May) I'll be 16 -- can I move out and enroll in high school in TN without my parents' consent?
If not, it'd be great if someone could point me in the direction of some instructions on how to become emancipated from one's parents.
