Drug Abuse

Question by Alaskan Girl 22: What Does It Take For Me To Get Emancipated In Alaska?
I have thought about this a few times, but now since that some one suggested it. I think I want to, but I just was taught in a certain way and now I know my WHOLE family will be disappointed in me.
But I want to. So this is what imma tell you. I’m 17, I’ll be 18 in a few months. I lived with my dad for 2 years but i moved back with my mom. I’ve never had a real relationship with my mother, we dont get along. And her having boyfriends has been a problem for me for a long time. I was abused in a way as a child. I was verbally abused, emotionally abused, and not alot of physical. But when I say physical abuse “not much” this “little” COUNTS. My mom is an alcohlic, and abuses it. And also Drug abuse, I plan on using this in court. She doesn’t know I’ve taken these decisions yet. A thing with her boyfriends, her last boyfriend ( who is now in jail because of her ) physicall abused me. So its the fact that she had people who abused me stick around and she never did any legal action wise about it.
So my boyfriend has been living with me (waiting for me) to be 18 so we can move into our own place. I know IM YOUNG but with the life I had he makes me feel safer and stronger and he supports me financially and buys me what i need. I have a job now so I pay for whatever i need. My Dad or my Mom stopped buying for my necessities when I was Freshman year in highschool. Idk how i supported my self but i did. I babysat and was given money by divident and aunts.

K well i moved into a place with my boyfriend that my mom used to stay in, she siad that i needed to buy stuff for that house cus she was gunna take the couch. And i moved out of it with my boyfriend BECAUSE my older borther HAD to live with me. And all he did was drink and cause violence towards people around me. I moved out and moved in with my mother. Its very cluttered and now me and my mother are not getting along again and I wanted to take the Emancipation action. I’m tired of her boyfriend and him trying to aploit my rights as a older sister to my younger siblings. My mother is clearly more caring towards her boyfriends and I’m just “not accountable” in any arguement sake. I have a job, And my boyfriend and I are a team. I believe we can do this. But i need to know if this is what it takes. Everyone says this is going to go through but I’m still nervous and scared because THIS IS NOT ME. I JUST WOULDN’T DO THIS but i FOUN THE STRENGHT…and Im trying to hold in here….please help!
I’ll be 18 in March next year. So like 6-5 months. I can’t wait.
