My motehr has full custady. Her and I don't get along what so ever. I've looked up and down to see how I could get emancipated. But I don't have the money, and I can't prove that I can 100% support myself, without any help. The court house can't give me "legal adivce" or tell me what the law is. I'm not 4months pregnant, mom won't let me marry till I'm 18, baby is due 2months before I turn 18. I have WIC and CHP+, and once the baby is born, the fathers parents are letting us stay there for a bit, and I'm told I can get help from the government to get an apartment once the baby is born. How can I get married before I'm 18, without my mothers concent and without spending a lot of money?. Doesn't being pregnant make me emancipated? Or if you can tell me any laws and or links that can help me, that would be greatly apreciated! Thank you!

This website should answer all your questions.. from what I read if you get married you automatically become emacapated.. but read for yourself there is a lot of information
