Yes. A case worker may take whatever action they feel is necessary to establish a stable environment and insure the safety of a minor who is in the state's custody.. The judge will determine the legality of all the actions taken at the custodial hearing and is such action(s) should remain in force.

At what age is it illegal to possess tobacco?

There is no federal law prohibiting the possession of tobacco, no matter what the age. These laws are left completely up to local authorities. For example, up until about two years ago minors where allowed to legally carry and smoke tobacco in the township in which I live, but now the township has imposed a law prohibiting the possession of tobacco for minors. So you see it is all local laws, and they are all different everywhere.


What rights do a 14 year old pregnant teens babys daddy who is 15 in Georgia have?

You really need to check with your Dept. of Social Services or Child Protective Services. Unfortunately for you, it appears that neither of you may have any legal rights since you are still clearly minors. The age of emancipation in Georgia is 18 and the age of sexual consent is 16. Neither of you qualify on either count. Whatever local agency that takes your case will have to make their own determination, according to Georgia law, as to how to best handle it for the welfare of the baby.
