Answer to Question 1

B

Feedback
A Incorrect. Following or not following rules of caregivers is note related to legal recognition.
B Correct. Emancipation is the legal recognition for a minor who lives independently and is legally responsible for his or her own support and decision making. Emancipation can occur through a formal court proceeding, during which a judge can establish whether a minor is living on his own and no longer requires financial support of parents. In some states, a minor is automatically granted emancipation in the event of marriage, joining the military, or becoming a parent prior to the age of majority.
C Incorrect. Many minors drop out of school and get jobs, but this does not qualify as emancipation.
D Incorrect. No longer attending public school or working on a GED do not achieve legal recognition required for emancipation.

Answer to Question 2

D
Video games provide the advantages listed above. However, they also decrease the time spent in physical activity, and limits should be imposed.
