How old are you. You can only be emancipated if you can support yourself. As to help from your dad, unless he is ordered from the court to pay - I doubt that you will get those funds. Your mom is probably receiving child support and once you become emancipated that will stop. Do you have a good relationship with your dad's mom. Perhaps you could live with her and he would support you via his mother.
