The county and socail workers and also welfare know how old he I as. We went through this when I was pregnant. Also for everyone placing judgement, you guys have no idea what our situation is. Also courts and rape crisis manager came and spoke with me and confirmed that he couldnt be placed in jail unless my parents pressed charged.

I just want to know if I can find away to become a minor adult. My mother suffers from a lot of issues and its hard for me to live my life, take care of her and raise my own daughter, you know.? I had to enroll myself in school and pretend I was her because she has no time. Its a long story. She knows im in school but sometimes I think her jealousy makes her hate on me and put me down. I am very smart and nothing like her, actually im everything she wants to be.A good mother, role model, smart, educated, and loved. I dont know what to do. I want to be on my own but the only way for that is to be married, but I dont want my boyfriend, baby’s dad to go to jail,and I dont want my mom to hate me. Because one minute she telling me im better off with out her and then next telling me that I better not leave. ( its due to her mental conditions that she is suffering.) I dont know what to do

Answer #2

no, but im pretty sure you can live with him. once you get emancipated, you are a free adult. but you cant let the judges know that hes your baby’s daddy. because then he can go to jail, but before you get emancipated, your parents have to okay it. so talk to your parents.

Answer #3

That’s not how it works. When you become emancipated you become a legal adult. Which means no one has custody of you any more. So no… However, can a 20 year old get custody of you, again, probably not. Can he get thrown into jail for statutory rape, quite possibly…

Answer #4

Thats wrong, what kind of pathetic 20 year old wants to date a 16 year old highschool kid… F*in peto..
