My parents do illegal things. I don’t want to be around that. I don’t feel safe anymore. I would like to get emancipated but I don’t think my parents let me. Can I be emancipated if they don’t sign off? Could I live with a relative if I’m emancipate?

Hello SWsally. Can I ask you a question about becoming a child welfare worker? I am interested in this field but most employers require a mater degree. Is this necessarily the case? Can a BS degree in criminal justice with a minor in psychology work?
