Not usually. There are just a few cases of partial emancipation. for a certain period of time or for some special purpose (such as the right to earn and spend his/her own wages) or from a part of a parent's rights (such as the right to make decisions about a pregnancy). Complete emancipation generally refers to the process of freeing a minor who is under age 18 from parental control. Which means the parent is no longer legally responsible for the minor.
