What are the emancipation laws for teen mothers?

Emancipations laws don't normally take the ability to have a child into consideration. Those states that allow emancipation are more concerned with insuring that the minor doesn't become a ward of the state. They typically require the minor to show that they can take care of themselves socially and financially without welfare. Having a minor wholly responsible for the welfare of another minor is never a good idea, they need the support of a family.

In some states like tenn,nc,sc,ga,Maryland,Virginia,Florida,and Texas, if you are 17 and have a child you are consider an adult at that time.But you have to be with in 4 months of your 18th birthday.meaning you can leave home if you feel the need to leave and be on your own.But you must show means of support.meaning you can stay with another family member,a friend,or a boyfriend,that will help support you until you can support yourself,or get a job before leaving home.you are an adult now and what you want to do is up to you.its not up to your parents or any other member of your family.although their are some parents that say not till your 18.In other states that may be true.I know i was 17 when I left home in Virginia with my 7 months old son,and went to be with my boyfriend last year in ga.now we are married......from a personal note DON"T let your parents fool you.
