Q: Iam 17 and my boyfriend is 16 can are we able to get married in the state of florida if both of our parents consent?
my life at home hasn't been the best. and my boyfriends mom and I have been talking about marraige. Apparently my boyfriend brought it up to her. If him and I get married would i be able to legally move out? Getting married to him isnt the reason for me moving out. I want to marry him. but would I be able to.
A: You should wait until you are both at least 18. It's a very big decision, not one to be made by minors who are still dependant upon their parents.
