marriage help: I’m just doing research really, but I really want to know. - Help.com

I’m just doing research really, but I really want to know.

If I graduate high school at 17, I’ll be legally emancipated from my parents. Can I get married without them signing for it since I will have no ties to my parents?

I do not know the answer. I would recommend not being in such a hurry to get married. Marriage is a huge commitment. Why not give your relationship some time to grow and mature?

thats right( what cajun said) In some states you can be anyage without your parents permission. But others not unless your at least 18. Even if your parents are willing to sign.

Why would you want to get married at such a young age? There is so much to do and see.Or anyone I know you said reserch but dont. That guy might not be the one I would wait even if the law allowed it.Young marriges dont work.Enjoy your life first. Thats a very big big commiment.And you have to be very ready to give up alot. Take your time.

Life is so fabulous to learn. I think it’s quite different between single and married life. All I said is just wishing you to be happy if it comes from your throughly decision.

And to anonymous, I dont think the actual divorce rate is any higher than the divorce rate of older first time couples. Or couples who one of which is a preacher for that matter. All of which have about a 50% divorce rate. So statistically young, old, religious or not, we are all in the same boat.
