The cop is wrong. A 17 year old can be reported as a runaway and the parents are still responsible for them in Michigan. While police would rather not get involved, the parents are within their rights to request and receive assistance.

Is it legal to date someone who is 38 when you're 17?

There are no laws for dating in the US so your parents will decide this since you are a minor. Sex is only allowed if the age of consent in your state is 16-17yo. It's most likely the 38yo does not have the same intentions as the 17yo though so sexual relations should probably be avoided until the 17yo is at least 18 and adult.

Can you get married if you are 16 in Texas and your girlfriend is pregnant?

For your sake I hope you are below 18 since the age of consent in Texas is 17 and this otherwise could be statutory rape. Marriage would not change that. For someone aged 16-17yo, pregnant or not, you will need written parental consent on an official form in the presence of the county clerk or an order from the Texas district court authorizing your marriage.
