Can a 17 year old move out if pregnant in Indiana?
Yes, according to Indiana Code § 31-32-2-1, a minor who is pregnant or has a child may file a petition in the circuit or superior court of the county in which the minor resides requesting that the court terminate the parent-child relationship between the minor and the minor's parents. If the court finds that it is in the best interests of the minor to terminate the parent-child relationship, the court may grant the petition and the minor will be considered an emancipated minor. An emancipated minor is considered an adult for all purposes and has the same rights and responsibilities as a person who is 18 years of age or older.
