Question: Is it legal to drink in your own home if your parents condone it?
Answer: Many people think that no child should ever be given liquor. Many people think that children should be taught to drink at home. The law hesitates to invade a home and to tell people how to raise their children. However, when things go to beans, there can be all sorts of trouble from things which would not ordinarily give trouble. E.g.: A father give a slug of beer to his children occasionally. The mother files for divorce, and tells the court and the local child protective authority about this in order to get custody and to get back at the father. The father is in a world of hurt.

You don't have to be emancipated. You can have your friends parents become your legal guardians if that is fine with your parents. Also you can have it temporarily to.

okay, so i want to get emancipated when im 16. but, i want to move out of state. is that possible? i want to live with my friends mother, so that i can graduate from a highschool there and then go to college in that state, if that makes sense. i dont like living in arizona, its not my place, ive lived here for a year and a half now. and i was just wondering also do you have to work? because if i want to move out of state then i would have to find some kind of a job in that state, instead of here.
