The age of majority in most states is 18, in Alabama and Nebraska it is 19, in Mississippi and Pennsylvania it is 21. In most states the exceptions are if a person who is at least seventeen is married or joins the military, both of which require the permission of the parent(s) or legal guardian. Some states such as Missouri have laws that can be somewhat confusing. Missouri juvenile codes list the age of an "adult" to be 17, this designation refers to juvenile court procedures and DOES NOT apply to the actual age of majority which is 18. There are states that accept petitions to the court for early emancipation of a minor, consulting the laws of your state can help you find the information you are seeking.
