You can only get emancipated if you can fully support yourself, and your child.
Requirements for emancipation vary by state, but typically a minor who seeks a court order of emancipation must prove that:
- The minor is a certain minimum age or older.
- They willingly want to live separate and apart from their parents with the consent or acquiescence of the parents. (The parents do not object to the minor living apart from them.)
- The minor can manage their own finances.
- The minor has a source of income that does not come from any illegal activity.
- Emancipation would not be contrary to the minor's best interests; it is good for them.
Judging by the fact that you are an unwed 15 year pregnant teenager, i'd just stick it out at home until your 18, or can get married TO THE RIGHT GUY.
