Yes, pregnant or not, you can leave home at 17 in Georgia, because by law you can go to jail at 17, so if you leave home, you can't be forced to return. In contrast, you cannot be forced to leave until 18. ***** No, they cannot. A 17-year-old in GA (and probably every state) can be charged as an adult if they commit a crime, but that has nothing to do with the age of majority. A 17-year-old is still a minor. They gain the rights of an adult at 18. Until 18, they are subject to the control and authority of their parents (so their parents get to decide where they live) UNLESS they have been legally emancipated in some manner such as marriage (which requires parental consent) or court decree (which is rarely granted). Pregnancy does NOT emancipate a minor. ***** Not true! Yes, you are not an adult until 18; however, in Georgia, you can leave home at age 17. You cannot be kicked out until age 18, but you can leave at 17, and no one will force you to return. Call the police and ask them. Or better yet, call DEFACS. ***** I'm not wrong. You're giving people inaccurate legal answers. I'm not basing my answer on what someone told me, I'm basing my answer on the actual law. If the police refuse to do their job and bring the runaway home, it is a very easy matter for the parents to get a court order requiring them to do their job.

Emancipation is done by a judge in court. You can not emancipate yourself, and it's unlikely that being irresponsible enough to be pregnant at 14 will convince any judge to legally make you an adult.
