In Arkansas is a pregnant minor considered emancipated?

No, in Arkansas, or any place else, you are not emancipated automatically when you are pregnant. It does not mean one has the ability to take care of yourself. You do have certain rights as to obtaining assistance for you and your child, but you are still the responsibility of your parents until you turn 18.


Can a sixteen year old girl who is pregnant move in with her nineteen year old boyfriend without parental consent in Texas?

NO. Being pregnant does not give you any 'adult rights'. You would be a 'runaway' and boyfriend can face criminal charges for taking you in. Plus, while your parents are chatting with the police they just might mention the fact that an adult impregnated their minor child who is *under the age of sexual consent*. That's big time illegal.


If you are arrested by the police what due process rights are you guaranteed?

If you are arrested, meaning that a reasonable person would feel that he is not free to leave, a police officer must read you your Miranda rights IF he wishes question you and use your statements against you later. The police have no obligation to read you the Miranda rights if they do not wish to question you. The police can use things you say against you if you volunteer them without being asked.
