Answer 6

Go on line and look at your state statutes under " emancipation of a minor ",  or contact your county court house for the proper dept to talk to.

Answer 7

The answer to your question is controlled by the law of the state of your parent who is your primary caretaker if there is divorce order granting custody of the child(ren).  If no divorce the state of domicile of your parents.  Just look it up in your state's code.  I would not think a lawyer would be needed to for a research of the question.  Most law is state based.
