You will have legal custody of your child. In the eyes of the law, once you become a mother you are emancipated as far as any decisions you make on behalf of your child...i.e. medical insurance/treatment decisions, all the bills for the baby, social security, birth certificate information can only be handled by yourself....unless you choose to sign over your parental rights to your parents. Due to the fact that you are 14, your parents still have legal authority over YOU. They will still make all decisions on your behalf legally. Hope that helps.....hang in there, it does get better!
