How does the court feel about a step child datIng an unckle?

The court has no interest in the personal lives of either the step child or the uncle unless they are in violation of the law. If the step child is a minor the uncle could be charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and statutory rape. The child could be charged with juvenile delinquency. If the couple claims to have a platonic loving relationship, questions and eyebrows are certainly raised but I don't believe there are laws against a platonic relationship between adult and child. If the "child" is legally considered to be an adult, there may be ethical issues but not legal ones.

Can your mother do anything if you are 16 and you and your baby move out with the child's 18-year-old father?

It depends on which state you live. You would have to call your police dept. or state to see if a 16 yr. old is legally considered an adult. There is no state where a 16-year-old is considered a legal adult. And simply having a child does not emancipate a person. As far as the law is concerned, you are a minor, and therefore, your mother has the authority to decide where you can/can't live. This young man is an adult. If you move in with him without your mother's permission then she can have you picked up and have him charged with something along the lines of 'contributing to the delinquency of a minor' and maybe more serious charges depending on where you live.
