Answer:
The age of majority in Illinois is 18. Until you turn 18, you are considered a minor and are under your parents' supervision. You can only end this supervision through emancipation, which is a court process that allows a minor to gain adult rights. Emancipation must be based on valid reasons and can be contested by your parents.
