im 17 in oklahoma and could possibly be pregnant. My parents and I don't get along at all and if I am pregnant, they will go crazy. I am financially stable. I pay for everything: food, clothes, car, insurance, gas, school, activities. The only thing i don't pay for is a house, but could easily afford. I have read the oklahoma statute on emancipation, but it doesn't answer my question. Is there any possible way that I could become emancipated?
The chances of a pregnant teen being granted emancipation are next to zero
why is that??? Is there any possible way to become emancipated?
A pregnant teen will stop working at some point and no longer be self supporting. The likihood you will sent government assistance increases. Emancipation is about "self" support not a tool for teens to escape parental rule
ok but my boyfriend, who is the baby's father, and i are still together and have been for years. He is 22, owns his own business and also is a correctional officer. I there any possibility of us getting married before im 18?
Not without parental consent
ok what if i live with my mom and step dad, but see my real dad on a regular basis. could he sign?
Who has "legal" custody and also even if one parent signs the other may object. Sign what? Emacnipation is off table. If you mean give consent to live elsewhere again the other parent may object and this will certainbly alter any support order that might exist as well
i meant consent to get married.
Laws vary by state the license may require signature of both parents
