>she can petition for emancipation at 16 in her state
With her parents permission. I sincerely doubt they will allow that.
>age of consent is 16 in her state too so
The age of consent only applies to couples within a certain age range. She will still not be able to have sex with the age group she wants.

"If the older individual holds a relationship (as defined by RCW 9A.44.010) with the 16- or 17-year-old and is at least 4 years older, and abuses this relationship to engage in sexual intercourse, it is considered a crime."

There is also no romeo and juliet law. Because there is no such "Romeo and Juliet law" in her state, it is possible for two individuals both the age of 16 or under who willingly engage in intercourse to both be prosecuted for statutory rape. Similarly, no protections are reserved for sexual relations in which one participant is a 15 year old and the second is a 16 or 17 year old.
