Re: how to separate from parent
I assume from your question that you are under 18, since at 18 you're considered an adult. It's highly unlikely that you could accomplish this legally as a minor, but to do so you would have to file a petition to have yourself declared by a court to be emancipated. If you can show the ability to support yourself and sufficient maturity despite your age, that would be a good starting point.

Re: how to separate from parent
I am unclear as to what you are asking? Are you a minor seeking emancipation from your parent?
