Emancipation - Do the same child labor laws apply to an emancipated minor?

Question

Do the same child labor laws apply to an emancipated minor?

Answer

Child labor laws are age specific and therefore would apply to an emancipated minor.  In other words, regardless of your status as an emancipated minor if you are under the age specified in such laws, the laws would apply.  This is the same for election law, laws regulating alcohol, and health and safety regulations.
