In Tennessee is a 17 year old automatically emancipated when they graduate high school?

No, graduating high school in Tennessee does not automatically emancipate a 17-year-old. Emancipation in Tennessee is a legal process that requires a court order. While a 17-year-old's graduation might be *considered* by a judge in an emancipation case, it's not sufficient on its own. The court will need to determine if the teen meets other criteria for emancipation, such as self-sufficiency and the ability to manage their own affairs.
