Question

Is a teen mom of the age 17 automatically imancipated after the birth of the child?

Answer 1

Laws vary from state to state. I'd look yours up.

Answer 2

Nope. She MUST turn 18, despite her parental situation

Answer 3

Nope you have to have atleast 2 children before that and also shes still a minor plus i believe they do that when a female is in their 20s

Answer 4

I feel kind of dumb disagreeing with most people here, but yes. In my state anyways I know it is a yes. It might vary from state to state though.

Answer 5

no, she's still a minor.

Answer 6

Nope. A lot of people believe otherwise, but it just isn't true. If the teen mom MARRIES, then she is emancipated. In some states, a pregnant teen is allowed to marry without parental permission if she is at least 16.

Very few judges will emancipate a teen unless they are being abused. I know of only one example and it was years ago; the abuser (her mother) was arrested and jailed after giving her two black eyes while 6 months pregnant. Today, there are actually foster parents who specialize in taking in threatened, pregnant teens, so it is less likely to occur.

Answer 7

No, why would she be?

Answer 8

Nope.
