Emancipation means self supporting. I suggest you phone Crisis Connection 24-7: You may phone repeatedly. Seek out school counselors trusted school teachers, the principal for private talks. As to your personal safety you may contact child social services or local police should you be in danger of physical harm. Tricia Dwyer Esq.
