I just turned 16 earlier this month. I'm living with my Dad (Who is not related to me, through blood or legal terms) and his new wife.
My biological father died when I was eight, so my mother has been recieving socially security benifits since then. I moved out of her house for the first time when I was 12 or 13, because she was emotionally unstable, and begining to emotionally abuse me. I moved in with my best friend and her mother, who some how became my legal guardian. I have been living with my mother off and on since I moved out of my friend's house a year later. I have lived with my grandparents, I stayed with my boyfriend for a week or two, because his mom didn't like me staying with whoever I could find that night.
I finally talked to my Dad, and he took me in. I do feel like a burden on him and his new wife, because I don't think they really expected what they got. I have a job, which I work at probably 30-35 hours a week.
I have been planning to move out into my own apartment for a year at least, and I have over a thousand dollars saved up for it.
I need to be emancipated, or have my mother's name off of my social security account, because she is spending it on herself, and I barely see a penny of it. I have never been to the dentist in my life, I have been to an eye doctor once, and I'm both near sighted and far sighted, but "we don't have enough money to pay for good glasses"
I do not go to the hospital, I do not have a doctor that I ever see for check-ups. I don't have life-insurance.
Whether I will still have the rights to my social security money when I am emancipated, I don't want her to have rights to it either.
I mainly just need information of emancipation laws in missouri. I could easily support myself, because I have been helping my granfather support my mother and her boyfriend (who had bladder cancer for a year or so)
Thanks all.
