No, you need parental consent if you are between 16 and 18 and want to get married in Florida. The age of the person you are marrying is irrelevant in this regard. (06/13/09) Why would you want to? It is a statistical fact that relationships involving people who co-habitat and/or get married prior to age 24 have an 85% failure rate. Biologically, this is when females reach full mature on the physical, emotional, and hormonal levels. At this point, a woman is fully prepared to have and handle children, as well as a male that is still not fully mature.

Males don't reach full physical and hormonal maturity until age 30. This is also when they reach their peak emotional maturity, but not to the point of being fully independent. Half of the male emotional health comes from a woman. The biochemical frequency range of the male brain adjusts itself to match that of the female, developing an emotional symbiotic relationship.

Couples who begin cohabiting and/or get married prior to age 24 can find themselves drawing away from each other as each reaches full maturity. Their whole view of the world, and each other, changes. This doesn't happen to all couples, but clearly it is a factor in most relationship breakdowns.

Cohabiting couples breakup three times more than married couples. Cohabiting couples that later marry have a 46% higher rate of divorce than those who did not cohabit prior to marriage. See Link Below

Discuss the situation with him in a non-threatening atmosphere. Explain your reasons why you think his child would be better off without him in their life. If you are married or planning to be married and your partner wants to adopt your child, freeing the father from any legal or financial responsibility may convince him to consent.

Are you allowed to dye your hair at 16 without parental consent?

If you are still living with your parents (which is likely) then what you should be concerned about is getting along with them. If they don't want you to dye your hair, don't. You will be moving out and living on your own (or with your chosen partner) soon enough, and you can then do what you wish. Patience.
