16 w/ 19 has to get out GA

[butterflygirl]

What is the name of your state? GA

I am 16 years old currently living with my mother. She has been into drugs and heavy drinking since her divorce almost a year ago. I am dating a guy who is 19 years old. We have recently been engaged. He is in the military and has been for going on 3 years now. We have had sex, and there is a possibility that I am pregnant. My mother and I are inching closer and closer to having a physical fight with one another. I need to know what the laws are. If I am pregnant, I want to leave with him as soon as we are able to get a marriage liscense. If I am not, he still wants to take me away from my mom in the summer of this year; I will still be 16 years old. I need to know how to get out of here, and if there is any other way to do this according to my state's laws besides me being pregnant. And if I am in fact pregnant, I need to know if he can get into trouble. We did not have sex until I was 16. We thought this was legal, and didn't look any further into it. Thank you all.

If you are pregnant:

Georgia

Applicants must be eighteen 18 years of age or older to apply without parental consent.

Applicants may be sixteen 16 or seventeen 17 and apply for a license with consent of the parents or guardians.


Parents or guardians must sign for you if you are underage.


The parents must accompany the minor applying for the marriage license and must have proper identification, such as a valid driver?s license.


Guardians must present proper guardianship papers.


Underage female applicants who are pregnant may apply without parental consent. A letter from a doctor must be presented at the time of the application. The doctor?s letter must state that the female is pregnant, how far along she is and her estimated due date. This letter must be on the doctor?s letterhead with his/her original signature, not a stamped signature.


If underage applicants already have a child, they should present a certified copy of the birth certificate for the child at the time of application.


If parental consent is not required, the court will notify parents or guardians that you have been issued a marriage license. There is an additional fee of $1.00 per letter.


All applicants need to take a premarital blood test. The blood test results must be printed on the mandatory state form #3411. Blood tests results must be signed and dated by the physician and must be less than thirty (30) days old when you apply for the license.

If you are not, you'll need a parent's consent to marry. And until you're 18, I believe your mother can report you as a runaway if you just take off.

Honestly? Getting pregnant and married at 16 is a stupid thing to do.

Not to mention having sex at 16. What were you thinking? I had this friend when she was 16, we lost touch over the years, whoes situation was a little similliar to yours. The last I saw her was about two years ago. She has two sons, both from the same guy. I barely reconized her. And from what I heard from her grandmother as well as others the father of the boys is a real jerk.
If your mother is as bad as she say she is. Talk to your father and see if you can go live with him, but don't get married at such a young age and if you are pregnant concidering putting the child up for adaption.
You still have school, college, a career, you need to take care of before raising another life.

Kid's shouldn't be raising kids.

And I'm not some parent saying this, I'm a 21 year old female. So please take what I told you into consideration, Maybe try getting your mom some help for he drinking problem, if you need to call other relitves let them know what going on. Families need to stick together in these sort of situations.
