We granted a writ of certiorari to the Court of Appeals in Arnold v. Arnold, 189 Ga. App. 101 (375 SE2d 225) (1988) to consider whether the family immunity doctrine is applicable. We hold that it is not and we affirm.

"Every person may recover for torts committed to himself, his wife, his child, his ward, or his servant." OCGA 51-1-9. Emancipated children may sue their parents and parents may sue their emancipated children. Davis v. Cox, 131 Ga. App. 611, 614 (206 SE2d 655) (1974). The appellant is an emancipated child who is being sued by a sibling. 1 The doctrine of family immunity is not involved.
