The minor gets a co-signer for the apartment.

Why would anybody rent to a minor otherwise, regardless of the contract breaking issues. They are unlikely to have much credit history. To say nothing of the maturity / responsibility and income (+ wealth / cash savings) problems.

The whole point of emancipating a minor is to empower them with legal decision-making power, in particular the ability to earn and retain wages.

Furthermore it's really hard to interpret your sentence with a meaning other than 'poor people do not deserve housing,' which I have to assume is not your intent.
