    Default Re: Is a 16 Year Old Considered a Legal Adult is Married and Has a Child

    Married 16 year-olds in the state of West Virginia are considered legally emancipated. However, this does not relieve the minor from obeying age related laws. For instance, you still must be 18 to vote, and 21 to purchase and consume alcohol.
