[iman′sipā′tid] Etymology: L, emancipare, to set free a person who is not legally an adult but who, because he or she is married, in the military, or otherwise no longer dependent on the parents, may not require parental permission for medical or surgical care. State and national laws vary in specific interpretations of the rule. Emancipated Minor A person under the age of majority—adulthood—who is regarded in the eyes of the law as being old enough—usually by virtue of marriage or financial independence—to make adult decisions and exercise general control over his or her own life Want to thank TFD for its existence?
