If you get emancipated ( own income. Housing. Utilities w/out state or federal aid) you can opt to not let your parents know where you live. If you already have your.one apartment/ house or have at least $300 saved up you can petition to be emancipated. If you're not in that for of financial situation, you can put yourself into state custody for foster placement.

You should consult directly with a civil or family practice attorney in your area.

Good luck
