That would be the age of majority. In Tennessee and most of the US that would be 18. Then they are adults and the parents are no longer responsible for the child.

In Tennessee, a child must be at least 18 years old to leave home without parental consent. However, if a child leaves home before turning 18, they may be considered a runaway, and the police can be involved to ensure their safety.

In Wisconsin, a pregnant 16-year-old is considered a minor and therefore cannot legally move out of their parents' house without their consent. If the parents do not approve, the minor would need to seek legal emancipation or assistance from child protective services. It is recommended to consult with a legal professional for guidance in this situation.

If you are 16 and have a child can you get married without parental consent in Tennessee?

No. Tennessee does not have waiver rights allowing a pregnant minor or one who has a child to be married without the consent of parents or a legal guardian. Find out what the legal age of consent is in TN and you will have your answer. * The AOC only pertains to when a minor can legally engage in consensual sex. It has no bearing on the marriage laws. A minor who does not live in a state that has laws allowing a pregnant minor to marry without parental consent (Tennessee is one of those states) must have parental or legal guardian consent to marry or must be emancipated by the court.
