I want to be emancipated?

Question

But i have no clue if i can.

I'm turning 17 in September.

And my mom wants me to suffer from my teen pregnancy.

She wants to kick me out.

If she does, I won't have anywhere to go but to my boyfriend's house.

He still lives with his mom.

But, he and I still don't know what his mom's reaction will be to the whole pregnancy thing.

What will happen if he gets kicked out, too?

He's turning 17 in October.

We both don't have jobs.

I don't know what else to type.

Someone say anything.

Answer 1

To be emancipated, you have to show that you are able to care and provide for yourself...as you have no place to live, and no jobs, you will not be emancipated.

Your parents are legally responsible for you until you turn 18, you could always to to the police station and have them help you with your mom.  She cannot kick you out.

Answer 2

i had my son when i was 18 and my boyfriend was 17.

this is really a very long convo we could have, but in a nut shell they will eventually accept that you are pregnant and having a child.  

just try your best to stay mature and keep your composure.  you may need to move out and have some space from your mom, even if it is just for a few days.

you can do a lot of things to prove to everyone's parents that you are both mature and responsible.

1.  Stay in school.  An actual highschool degree is usually better than anything else.  Do not drop out no matter what!

2.  Get on Medicaid.  They will pay for EVERYTHING.  They will pay for every appointment, every ultrasound, and for the labor and delivery.

3.  Buy books about teen pregnancy or pregnancy in general.  There are books.  here is a link to a list of some:

4.  Make an appointment with your school counciler.  it may be hard to talk about it for now, but they need to know.  They can help more than you could ever imagine.

i almost flunked out of highschool, but with the help of a principle who previously disliked me, i made it.

COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY!!  ;D

email me at [e-mail] if you would like more advice.

im now 20 and my son is 2.  but im still friends with a lot of young people like yourself who are getting pregnant so remember that you are not alone, and these days having a baby is easier than ever.

remember your options, but only choose what YOU want.  never do something your heart tells you not to.

Answer 3

You will have to hire a lawyer, then prove in court that you have a job to support yourself and a place to live. Teen pregnancies are always a challenge, not only to the mother and father but to parents of the teens. If you haven't already, check into any possible sources for assistance in medical costs and prescriptions relative to the pregnancy. Good luck.
