There are many teens out there wondering about stuff. What can they do. What if their parents make them leave home, pressure to abort. Many things. First of all, your parents CANNOT legally kick you out of their house. You can leave at 17 with no problem, and wont be reported as a runaway. The parents are legally responsible to provide for you until you are 18 years old. They cannot put you out. Then, another thing that you can do, is get medical treatment, without parental consent or supervision. The hospital cannot deny you. You can also go to your local DHS building and apply for financial aid programs such as WIC if you are eligible. Be aware that you can also enroll in school without issues. You can legally drop out at 16 years of age, but this is NOT recommended. By continuing your education, you can fulfill a better career and make more money to support this child. Having a baby while you are in highschool as a teen is tough, but not impossible. If oyu have any questions, feel free to write me.
