What is the name of your state?

Arkansas

At 16 if you have a child do you become an legal adult?

No.

You are an adult at age 18 ... and, you may be granted certain "adult" rights and responsibilities if granted emancipation by a court. But having a baby at 16 is rarely a good way of demonstrating responsibility for an emancipation hearing.
