It's illegal for a 15yo, a minor, to have sex and it's illegal for a 18yo, an adult, to have sex with a minor. It's statutory rape. The pregnancy itself is not illegal (you wont be punished for getting pregnant) but the sex creating it is.
No. In the state of TX, pregnant or not, a minor needs parental permission in order to marry.
Yes. In Texas, the age that a young person can legally consent to sexual activities with an adult (a person 18 or older) is 17.
The age of consent in Texas is 17. The law has been broken and it can't be undone.
Obviously you can , HONEY. do WHATEVER yoU WANT . *** Being pregnant does not emancipate a minor. So, assuming you're talking about moving in without your parents permission, no you can't. And if you do Boyfriend can be facing criminal charges. They'll start with 'harboring a runaway' and go from there.
no. once your pregnant ,texas see's you as an adult
enlist the ghostbusters
No, you can't. Being pregnant does not emancipate a minor. If you leave home, your parents can file a police report and have you picked up and returned home. If Boyfriend takes you in/assist you, then he could be facing charges for doing so (possibly harboring a runaway/custodial inference/enticing a child). By the way, the age of sexual consent in TX is 17, so Boyfriend might be facing charging for that as well.
Only with approval of the court, but yes it is likely to be stopped.
No, in Texas the legal age of majority is 18, so a sixteen year old is considered a minor and would require parental consent to live with her nineteen year old boyfriend. Without parental consent, the boyfriend could potentially face charges for harboring a runaway minor.
Exactly the same as the rights of livin(g) people anywhere else in Texas
no. It's just a rumour.
I don't know waiting to watch the episode! No,it would be all over the internet already!
