A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I am 15 years old and I ranaway and I got pregnant while I ranaway. And neither of my parents like my 16 year old boyfriend. And his parents like me and would let me move in with them, but he lives two hours away from me. Do you think I could move in with my boyfriend legally so that my baby could grow up with two parents?

I think this is the same person that has posted other questions. I have noticed that in some you are 15 and some you are 16, I have also noticed in this one your boyfriend is 16 and in the others he is 13, whats the truth, make your mind up. Sorry Aunts but these hoaxes really bug me.

Like Ankoku said, it depends on the laws in your state. If your parents really do not like him that much and don't support the baby, then they might support you going away. If not, you can file for emancipation, but that is a long and drawn out process. You need to consider though if you decide to stay in school during/after your pregnancy, you will probably need a guardian to sign your forms. You will need your parents to sign over guardianship to your boyfriends parents, or sign the marriage license so you and he can be married before 18. Consult the laws in your state for information on what you can and cannot do.

Good luck and I hope this helps.

Well I know where I live once you're 16 you can legally move out of your parents house. But that probably varies from state to state. What I say to do is just google it. See how that law is in your state, some times you can get "divorced" from your parents but i think that only happens when you have money issues with them. But it wouldn't hurt for you to look it up and get some information about it.

Good luck and I hope everything works out for you, your boyfriend, and the baby.
