You say that she is 15 years old. she is a miner. Until she 21 you are in control of her. How is she going to take care of a baby on her own when she can't even take care of herself? Let me ask you another question: What about school; I imagine that she is either in the 9th or 10th grade, how is going to take care of her education? You should go with the police or Family Court and have her come back home. It is better to have her get mad with you now than watching her regret it later. I bet her boyfriend does not want to know anything about the baby they are having. Answered by lilyflyAge : 34 1 month ago Edit Delete |

At 15, you are still responsible for your daughter's supervision, but if she resists your guidance, and leaves your home, there are only a few things you can do to help her legally. You could petition the Family Court to declare your daughter a Person In Need of Supervision. But a PINS determination is usually not terribly helpful in real terms, and may further alienate your daughter. She could (or you could) also petition for emancipation once she is 16. Your control of her, at her age, is mostly rooted in your ability to persuade and exert moral influence. Good luck. Answered by S.A.CablesAge : 61 1 month ago Edit Delete |
