Minor Emancipation
A person who has not reached the "age of majority" (usually the age of 18) is considered a child (or "minor") in the eyes of the law. In the realm of family law, "emancipation" (also called "divorce from parents") refers to a court process through which a minor can become legally recognized as an independent adult in the eyes of the law.

- Automatic Emancipation - In some states, certain actions or events may cause a minor to be emancipated automatically.
