what can a pregnant minor do to get married?

First of all, if your parents don't let you, you can't. You are a minor. You can get emancipated, but that is a long shot in the dark. Frankly, you should listen to your mother. Getting married is NOT the answer. If he loved you to begin with, he wouldn't have gotten you pregnant, asked you to sleep with him, or agreed to sleep with you. It is a respect issue, and he obviously doesn't respect you. You need to respect yourself! Listen to your mom.

You need to be 18 but some abortion clinics will allow you to go to get court permission and your parents don't need to know. Call your local abortion clinic and ask them. They might have better advice to give you then you could find in here. Also, don't let anyone in here judge you. We have all done things that other people may not agree with. That doesn't make it right or wrong. You are not a horrible person but just make sure you discuss every option (and there are alot out there) with your doctor and the baby's father but don't let anyone force your decision. Good luck.

If you wish to be legally wed, you must get a marriage license from the county in which you plan to have the ceremony conducted. If you just want to play house without protecting your legal interests, talk to your Clergyman about a commitment ceremony, but don't gripe when you can't put each other on your health insurance,visit each other in the hospital if one of you gets incapicitated, have to go through hell and back to make funeral arrangements, have trouble getting a mortgage or life insurance and your auto insurance premiums stay the same instead of dropping by nearly 25% if you both have decent driving records.

The answer is now 15 years of age.\n\nyesterday, they passed a bill unamiously to prevent anyone under the age of 15 to get married.\n\nStrangely they will let minors 15, 16 and 17 to get married.\n\nEDIT: Added a source to read more about it.

Early emancipation usually occurs by court order. To obtain a court order:\n1. The minor must be at least 16 years old.\n2. A petition must be filed by the minor’s parent, guardian or guardian ad litem.\n3. The petition must show the judge that the minor is independent and able to support himself and his child, if he is parenting.\n􀂾 He must either be supporting himself or have a specific plan.\n􀂾 He can not be dependent on public benefits.\n4. The petition must give the Judge reasons why the minor needs to be emancipated.\n\nYou are also emancipated when you marry. However:\n􀂾 A minor can not get married without parental consent.\n􀂾 A minor under 16 years old can not get married even with parental consent.\n􀂾 A court can allow marriage with parental consent if you’re under 16 years old but have (or are expecting) a child together.\n􀂾 A court can allow marriage with parental consent if the male is over 18 and the minor female is pregnant.\n\nHope this helps!

The State of Ohio does not have an emancipation law. A minor or parent is unable to file a legal action to have a minor emancipated or legally on their own and under the age of 18. There are two temporary ways in which a minor can be out of the custody of their parent. Either join any branch of the Armed Forces or marriage. However, if the marriage is dissolved or minor is discharged from the service and still under the age of 18 the custody automatically reverts back to the parent who originally had custody.\n\nIt sounds like your only hope is marriage.  However, 16 appears to be the earliest you can get married and then you will need parental consent.  Otherwise, you will have to wait until you are 18.  It does appear, though, that, as you are pregnant, you may be able to petition your county juvenile court to grant you consent even though you are underage.\n\n   \n \n Ohio § 3101.04. Consent of juvenile court.\n \n When the juvenile court files a consent to marriage pursuant to the juvenile rules, the probate court may thereupon issue a license, notwithstanding either or both the contracting parties for the marital relation are under the minimum age prescribed in section 3101.01 of the Revised Code. The license shall not issue until section 3101.05 of the Revised Code has been complied with, and until such child has been born, or it is found beyond doubt by the juvenile court that the minor female is pregnant and intends to have the child.

Your parents have legal control until you go to court and become legally immancipated.  A court may not allow it, because you are not self-supporting and are not legally married to your boyfriend.  \n\nEither he steps up to be a man and marries you, you get a job and support that baby.... or you go home to your parents.\n\nYou need to consider all of the ramifications if your boyfriend dumps you, Honey.  It happens all the time!\n\nBest Wishes,\nSue

smh. If you dont know what goes in a wedding, how are you gonna survive marriage. but hey thats neither here nor there. Since you already have a baby, you might as well get married. You can google, wedding planning, You need to hire a preacher/pastor/reverend, get things set up with your city hall or town hall, to actually be married legally, you will sign the documents at the wedding. You need to send invites and have the people RSVP and by that, you will be able to tell, who is coming so you can have enough chairs in the wedding and reception. Plates, forks, spoons, decorations, dresses, shoes makeup, Have a list on the invitations asking 3 choices of what people want to eat (chicken, beef, fish)

You marry the girl, then tell him in a very friendly, honest,serious way that he'll have to trust you to look out for her now, that you know she'll always be his baby and that you love her more than life itself and would never allow harm to come to her...then live up to that vow.

There is a state or two that no matter what the age of the people if the bride is pregnant or has a child they can get married without parents knowing about it.

18, usually. However, with parental consent, you can get married as young as 16.

I believe that the legal age in most states is 18.  I know that there are exceptions to this, like for example, if a parents signs a form to give them permission, you can marry younger.\nNow, there are few 18 year olds or younger that are actually ready for marriage.  The advice that I will give to my own children will be to wait until they have graduated from college, been at least dating for a year or longer, and have pre-marital counseling before hand.  I think that with all of those things, it will at least help the chances of having a better foundation when starting a marriage.\n\nThat said, I was 19 and my husband was 18 when we got married, we were not done with college, and we were dating for...oh...about a month before my husband asked me to marry him.  We did date for about a year before we were finally married though.  We have now been married for 12 years.  We are definitely the exception to the rule, and the first few years were really hard, because we were pretty immature.  It can be done, but the chances of it lasting aren't all that great if you just jump into it.

It depends on the state. Most do not allow people to get married who would fall under a statutory rape law. Others specifically define the offenses as intercourse with a minor who is not the spouse. In all states it is not illegal to have consensual sex with your spouse, regardless of age, as long as the marriage is valid.
