How does a person divorce a person?

This is not divorce. This process is called emancipation. You will need to contact a lawyer and give proof of being able to manage your own affairs and earn an income, as well as reasons to be away from your father.

You can try to become an emancipated minor by petitioning the court and filling out and turning in the proper paperwork, which you can get at the clerk's office. In order for a minor to be emancipated, they have to prove that they can take care of themselves by having a job and a place to live.

You can't legally divorce your father. As a minor, you would file for emancipation. You need to consult an attorney to find out the requirements for your state.
