I have a friend who is 17 years old, turning 18 in 4-1/2 months, but is ready to leave home now for unfit / unhealthy living conditions. Her home is Roach / Spider / Black Mold infested and it is not a healthy environment. Her mother is a Disabled Veteran who feels that she is her "property". She has control over her savings account and won't even let me know the amount inside. She gets $500 a month from her father for Social Security but won't use it for the teens benefit; she uses it for her own expenses. The teenager has a full time job and will be gradating from the local community college with her AA in 1 month. She has no other biological family in town but ha adult friends who are willing to help her with living situations until she go to University in August. Is the emancipation process even worth it now or what else can she do?
