[i dont kno what to do]

Hi I'm 16 ill be 17 in June.. I have a 3 mth old baby. I usually go over to my boyfriends house and stay when he's not working or wheni feel like it!
My mom is making me stop seeing him for some reason.:mad: :(
I think that is rude we love each other dearly we been together over a yr.:)
So he is 20 and has his own place and a job.
Is it possible for me to be able to move out with ut being called a run away. Ir be made to come back home?:confused:

In most US states you would be a run away,

And actually if that is his baby in many US states he would be a rapist and be going to jail. So depending on where you live, your mom can make it very tough on him. And actually going back 9 months it places having sex real close to 15 which makes it rape in almost all US states.
So your mom may want something better for you, like gong to high school, getting an education and more.

I will assume the babies father is paying child support to help support the baby ?

You say your mom is making you stop seeing him for "some reason".. and you don't know why? Maybe it's for the best. I also think that you should try talking to her about these things before you go behind her back because she could probably get your boyfriend into a whole lot of trouble. Is this his baby you have?

In Texas emancipation is called "removal of disabilities of minority." The requirements for this are: the minor must be "17 years of age, or at least 16 years of age and living separate and apart from the minor's parents or guardian", and self-supporting and managing their own financial affairs".

But like I said before, you might not want to start bringing up the law with your mother because she can and probably will win on this one.

TALK TO HER... tell her how you feel. You are way too young to be out on your own and she knows it.

The self supporting and managing your own affairs is the issue, living with someone else is not self suporting, it is still being supported.
So to be emacipated, you have to get a job that pays enough to let you pay all for your own bills, rrent, electric, water, a sitter for the baby while you work, they may at 16 require you still also be in school.
And of course you have to have enough money to pay for an attorney.

You are at an age where you can stay with your mom, finish school and get a part-time job without giving up your baby and you can see a boyfriend who is not a legal adult in your spare time. Do that for another few years and you could finish high school, and college, and then get an apartment that you can afford to pay for yourself.

You may think you love your boyfriend, but you probably thought you loved your baby's father, as well. You need to love yourself and your child first, get your own life under control and then think about what kind of relationship ou can manage with a guy.

The path you have planned for yourself ends in more kids, a ton of short-term, broken, overly dramatic relationships with the wrong kind of guys and wellfare. Your mother's plan is probably for you to have an education, followed by work that is adequate to support you and enjoyable and satisfying to you, and then when you are an adult and know yourself better, moving in with a man after he first becomes your husband. May sound old fashioned, but your Mom is smart - it is much better for you in the long term and is not just moral argument - it's about finding true happiness instead of a fleeting rush of fun that will never be enough, and will never meet yours or your childs' needs.

As for emancipation -nobody who cannot spell it should even consider it. Clearly, more education is required first.
