How old is your boyfriend and what state do you live in?

Well, this explains your other post.

How old is your boyfriend?

If he is under 18, yes, they can keep you apart, send the police to retreive him if he runs away to you, and then charge your parents with harboring a runaway and/or interference of custody.

The fact you are pregnant doesn't mean you are magically emancipated. You are still kids and have to do what your parents say.

Call CPS if he is suffering abuse. Unfortunately, your getting pregnant by him will only make his situations worse. And the word is BECAUSE, not CUZ.

Yes, contact the cops. No, there is nothing else you can do.

They cannot keep him from seeing his own child, assuming that there is a custody/visitation order in place and that he's been established as the legal father (either by DNA test or acknowledgement of paternity). However, since you are both minors.. your parents can keep the two of you from seeing each other until you are 18.

As for the smart-mouthed statement you made here, you ASKED for advice, and you GOT advice. Just because it wasn't exactly what you wanted to hear doesn't mean that it wasn't CORRECT.

And just for the record, MOST adults (I will admit I have met some ignorant adults) KNOW LEAGUES MORE than you, honey.

Just another in the long list of posters that give very little information, get the legal advice, and then give a long list of details that they think will change the story...

"You think you are so smart.... but she really set the father of her unborn love child on fire in a mistaken attempt to prove to her parents that she was over him....so, tell me now, can she still be convicted of stalking?"
