Can I get married without permission as a runaway (continued)?

ok i guess i will re frase this question…things out the house are not good. i have alot of issues that are going beyond my control and im going crazy from it all. im not being abused physically though. my home life isnt all that great but my mother does her best and i lov e her but theres only so much that i can take from her.

any ways i plan on leaving in a few days or weeks i would probly be considerd a runaway but im willing to take that risk. i know all the consequenses for if i get caught. and the person/s i’ll be staying know all the risks to. im not leaving just to be with some boy but he will be there. i will be going back to my old home town with all my friends so i will know every one there.

I WANTED TO KNOW THAT IN THE STATES THAT IT IS LEAGAL TO GET MARRIED IN WITH OUT PARENTAL PERMISSION WOULD I BE ABLE TO AS A RUNAWAY???

i have been with this boy for a little over a year and i plan on being with him for as long as i can. i know running away to get married is imature but once your married that means your emancipated so it works for me.

Well you say you know the risk so im not going to repeat them. to answer your question it is eligal and he could be arrested and so can you , i would think about it if i was you , you have alot to loose and little to gain i dont know if this will help but what if you and ur bf talk to your mother and see if she agrees and gives you permission , and no u cant get married with out parental consent unless ur 18 years of age, is just the way it is. if u get arrested that will follow you through the rest of ur life and ur bf could be convcted and sentenced to years in prison if ur mother decides to press charges, if ur not 18 he will also be condsidered a rapist and it will fallow u guys becuase the post a list of sex ofenders in every comunity bulitin ,he will not be able to get a decent job… all this things just add up think about it.

Even though stuff at home may be tough, that’s no reason to run away- There’s always something you can do, you might just need to sit down and think it out. Marriage is a huge step, and is not something to be looked at lightly. The age you are at now, I don’t think you’re really prepared for it, especially when your emotional development will go in swings and roundabouts until you’re about 18- you might love this guy now, but until your hormones settle down, feelings can change day to day. It’s probably for this reason you legally can’t get married til you’re 18 without your parent’s consent.

Just chill out and have fun being young- leave marriage til later, it’s not the answer to your problems.

Answer #3

An afterthought: If you want to get emacipated, file for emancipation- however, if you do, you’ll have to prove your mother as an “unfit parent”. If you love her so much, why would you want to say that about her?
