Rachel Canning, Teen Who Sued Parents, Reports She's Won College Scholarship
Rachel Canning, the 18-year-old New Jersey high school senior who made worldwide headlines after suing her parents for financial support before eventually dropping the case, has apparently chosen the college she will attend in the fall. “Decision made,” Canning posted on Facebook on March 30, according to the Star Ledger (the post is only visible to her approved Facebook friends). “WNE U class of 2018 BME Major w/ 56,000$ [sic] scholarship.” That’s Western New England University, in Springfield, Massachusetts, where she’ll study biomedical engineering.
WNEU’s student body is small, at just 3,800, and the cost for tuition and fees for full-time engineering undergrads is currently $32,606, plus room and board, which is an additional, $12,688, according to the school's website. (Canning's scholarship would more than cover one year's fees.) The various athletics offerings include lacrosse and football cheerleading, both of which Canning has participated in as a student at Morris Catholic High School in Denville, New Jersey.

This will give kids more power over their parents. Yes they can even sue them for divorce

Its like this,,Kids can become free agents just like in Baseball and the NFL. If you don't like your family you can go to another family. If I thought about this when I was 12 id would sue my parents for divorce and I would became Vince McManhon son
