Emancipation of Minor

I am a sixteen-year-old minor residing in Virginia and employed part-time as a library assistant in a private school. I have earnings to support myself and I have been living separated from my parents for the last two years with their consent. My parents are also very well convinced and satisfied about my consistency in life. My girlfriend and I are now thinking of getting married by availing the provision of emancipation. She is 18 years old. Are there any specific statutory requirements that I should be complying with? Can I approach the court directly to get emancipated?

I am 17 years old and I have a child. My father kicked me out, does this mean I am emancipated and legally allowed to make my own decisions?

I am 14 years old and have been into gaming professionally since I was 11 years old. I live with my parents in San Francisco. I go to a private school and I don’t like it there. I want to quit school and focus on gaming for now and my parents are dead against it. I have heard that I can get emancipated from my parents in California because I am 14 years old now. Can I get an emancipation and leave school?

I play as the wide receiver for the Jacksonville State Gamecocks team. A scout from the Alabama Crimson Tide approached my agent and I am set to be taken into the team for the next season. I will be turning 19 in about 7 months from now. After the news was published in the local newspaper, my father who had abandoned my mother and me three years ago has come back to dictate terms claiming that he has legal right over me and over what I earn since I am his son. I want him gone. What can I do in this situation?

I am a minor wondering the legality of moving out of state, to Arizona, with my older sister, who is 21. While there I would continue to go to school and get a job in order to help pay rent for an apartment. I do not know the steps needed to move and if it conflicts with custody between my divorced parents.
