I have a serious problem that needs to be fixed ASAP.
HISTORY OF THE SITUATION:
When I was 15 years old I got pregnant. The father of the baby lived in Indiana and I live in Ohio. After we found out that I was pregnant he moved in with me my mother and my step dad. When I was about 6 months pregnant we moved into our own place. In May 2001 my daughter was born.
In July his former employer from Indiana called and offered him a better job for 3 dollars more an hour so we moved here to Indiana.
MY PROBLEM:
About a month ago I called the high school and asked them what I had to do to get enrolled into school. I knew my mother would have to enroll me b/c she is my legal guardian. So the principal told me that she could enroll me but I would have to pay tuition. That made me pretty mad but I agreed since I knew I had to go to school. Well I had to write a letter to the superintendent first and he would have to accept it before I would be allowed to enroll. Well after the school board voted on it they turned my request down b/c of my "legal and guardianship satus"
Well lets just say for the last month I have been trying everything to be able to go to school. They told me that if I had a letter from a lawyer stating that Iam in the process of being emancipated that my mother could enroll me into school until I was emancipated. I tried to be emancipated, but that didn't work either b/c the lawyer I spoke with told me that I would have to be emancipated in the state that my parents were divorced, which is Kentucky. So my mother spoke with the judge in Kentucky who told me I COULD NOT be emancipated there b/c I do not live there. Then my mother contacted a judge in the county she lives in and they told her that they don't even emancipate minors at all in Ohio. Then when I spoke with my mother today they told me that they were even acting kinda weird that I wasn't living at home.
WHAT I NEED:
I want to know what I can do.
I want to know if anybody knows the laws about these sorts of things in Ohio. (I guess Ohio laws matter most b/c that is where my guardian lives.)
I really want to live with the father of my baby but I really need to go to school. If they won't let me go to school in Indiana I guess I might have to go back to school in Ohio.
I NEED HELP AS SOON AS TOMORROW B/C I HAVE TO MAKE UP MY MIND BEFORE TONIGHT OR TOMORROW B/C IF IAM GOING TO GO BACK TO OHIO AND GO TO SCHOOL I HAVE TO ATTEND ORIENTATION THE 23RD.
PLEASE HELP ME.............
