I'm 15 yrs old and i'm pregnant, my parents hate my boyfriend because
he's not a christian. I haven't told them yet either. I want to know
if after I have the child I can legally go live with him without being
emancipated from my parents. Emancipation would definatley benefit me,
but i'm pretty sure you need both parent's consent. We want to get
married as soon as possible but since we're both under 18, we again,
need our parent's permission, emancipation would also allow him to be
able to assist me in caring for the child (if i could go live with him
and his family) His parents have agreed to let me live in their home.
If someone could please give me some statutes I could maybe read for
myself going either for or against what we're trying to do here, that
would be great. I live in colorado.

out of my exp. im only 16 and went from worse to messed up the best thing to do is call a local justice of the peace in your county you should be able to get emancipatied because you are having a baby and you need to prove that you are and that the father has a job to support you.search google.com for the laws in which ever place you live



ok good luck!

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. I realize that you probably think you are helping the OP, but before posting legal advice you should read and know the laws.

1. No minor can be emancipated because of pregnancy or parenthood.

2. No 15 yr old can be emancipated.

3. Not all states allow for emancipation.

I just noticed, the original poster posted her question in 2004. Before posting responses you need to look at the date of the post you are responding to.

In answer to #3, Colorado does not. (sorry, I know this was old, but just wanted to give you the support for #3.

By now, the person in question is helping that child walk and talk.

Yeah, the barn that door was attached to burned down long ago.
