My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Montana
I am a 16 year old teenage mother and I want to move out of my parents house. I know I made the mistake of getting pregnant at a young age, but I love my child unconditionally and want her to have a good life. Unfortunately, the environment we are living in is not suitable. It is a filthy home. There is usually dog mess all over the floors that my parents rarely clean up (I take care of most of it), and there is always some kind of mess everywhere. Also, there is a lot of yelling and emotional abuse. For a few years now, way before my daughter was born, my parents have spoken to me in a very inappropriate manner. When my mother is mad at me, she will call me names and ridicule me for being a young mother. Once, when I was very depressed, she told me to go ahead and kill myself and see if she or anyone else cared. She puts me down and brings me to tears right in front of my daughter. I do not think my daughter should be raised in an environment where her mother is called the B word right in front of her, just when I don't agree with my mother on something.
My boyfriend is 20 years old, and no, statutory rape was not and is not an issue. We live with my parents, and he witnesses most of the drama. We are capable of getting our own house, and keeping one. I was working before our daughter was born, and I plan on working again. My old job promised me my job back, so that is not an issue. I am also staying in school, and we have a daycare in mind. I plan on furthering my education and going to law school. If something fails, however, and we are in a bind, my boyfriend's parents will help us with open arms. My parents have repeatedly demanded money from my boyfriend for living with us. He never signed a lease or any form of paperwork. They told him at first to not worry about money. We are tying to save our money for a house, but my parents keep demanding money, and are threatening to kick him out and not let him see his daughter, which I know they can't do. They are also pushing to take guardianship away from us. I refused to sign it over, and they humiliated me in public by calling me selfish and a horrible mother. They do not need guardianship, we are perfectly capable of taking care of our child.
To sum up this long post: my question is, do I have a good enough reason to be emancipated, and what do you believe my chances will be? My parents don't know about this, but I already know they won't sign the emancipation papers. Any advice as to what to say in court will be very helpful. Please do not bash me for being a teenage mother, I've heard enough of it.
Thank you for the help, everyone!
