Do you need parental consent for emancipation in Illinois?

In the state of Illinois, parental consent is not required for emancipation. Minors between the ages of 16 and 18 can petition the court for emancipation without the consent of their parents or guardians. However, the court will consider several factors when making a decision on emancipation, including the minor's age, maturity level, ability to support themselves financially, and living arrangements.
