Re: Girl suing parents for college tuition. - March 9th 2014, 07:01 PM

I will say it can be hard to get declared emancipated from your parents for financial aid purposes but it can be done. However, suing them because she chose to move out is stupid. However, in that case she needs to choose to go to a community college because she cannot afford the out of state tuition.

Also, I don't doubt that her parents are helicopter parents who are pressuring their child to due well. I also don't think she is used to being told no so she threw a tantrum and ran away. It wouldn't shock me if this is the first time her parents have stuck to their guns.

I don't think that the parents should have to pay. However, I don't know if I would blame her for running away but when I was making plans to leave my mom's house, I planned on working two jobs and going to the local university.
