Emancipation is allowed for teens under the age of eighteen in the state of Florida. Caution should be used applying this law as teens are using pregnancy as way to seek independence from household rules due to the fact that law protect pregnant teens from being physically disciplined. Technically once pregnant a teen or child at any age can do anything they want when pregnant due to the fact that they cannot be restrained. Police officers and child protective authorities are reluctant to physically restrain pregnant children due to the fact they may harm the fetus. To get emancipated you have to have your parents consent. I feel as if she should tell her parents that she's pregnant so that she can get a check up at a doctors office because it is very bad for a young girl to be pregnant and not take care of herself bad, bad, bad complications can happen. She can always put it up for adoption there is people everywhere looking for a baby to bring home and love. To get emancipated you have to have your parents consent.

No. There is no judge who would do that. At 14 you are not done with school and can not get a job or a place to live.

When pregnant and after you decide things regarding your baby but your parents still decide regarding you.
