It really depends on what state you live in. In GA you are a legal adult art 17. In most states, if you are married and over the age of 16 you are considered an adult. Good Luck.

Obviously having a child as a minor forces you to take on many adult responsibilities, however the mere act of having a child does not necessarily make you an adult. Unless you decide to become legally emancipated from your parents (in which case you will be considered an adult) you will not be an adult until you turn 18, which doesnt sound that far away for you.
