Is a pregnant minor considered emancipated in the state of CA?

Pregnancy and Emancipation RightsYou cannot get emancipated merely because you're pregnant. However, if you meet your state's requirements for emancipation, yes.

As a general rule, you would be required to prove (among other things) that you are capable of fully supporting yourself and your child with no assistance (note: child support would likely be considered legitimate income to you and not a form of assistance), and that there is a legitimate reason that emancipation would be in your best interest.

Check the laws of your state for more detailed information on their requirements.

Here is more advice and input:

  • No! Contrary to popular belief, simply having a child does not make a person emancipated. Generally speaking, the only way to become an emancipated minor is by order of the court (and not all states have emancipation laws), getting (legally) married, or joining the military (which minors need parental consent to do).
  • This would be like saying making one stupid mistake should entitle you to make more decisions that affect your future.

The only situation in which that would happen would be if the teen needed to be granted early emancipation rights in order to receive state or federal assistance for herself and her child. That is done by the court with specific guidelines and requirements that need to be adhered to. Being pregnant DOES NOT constitute legal age or emancipation status. Having a child does not emancipate a person. Pregnancy does not confer emancipation status to a minor. The young lady can however, file for emancipation status to become eligible for public assistance for herself and her child if it is needed.
