You can get married but at 17 you are no where near the maturity it takes to keep a married relationship. If it is true love it will wait until after high school and you have a job(home and savings also preferably). Take the time to know yourself because you will be a totally different person in a few years and will be looking for different values in the person you choose to marry and be with forever! What are your goals? What are your intended's goals? How are you going to pay for a home, children, bills, medical emergencies, entertainment? How are you both going to buget time and finances? Will both work full time? Who takes care of the house and yard? What church will you go to or bring up children in? Does the intended have a drinking or drug problem, ever hit or scare you? Does his family have abuse or other big problems that WILL affect your marriage because the cycle most always continues. Be careful and be smart and do what will be best for yourself and your loved one in the longrun. If you are pregnant don't add to that problem by getting married too young. Deal with the pregnancy with you family's help because it will affect your life forever even if the baby's father leaves!Family almost never leaves family in need!

You can get married at seventeen will parent consent. If no parent consent I believe you have to wait until your eighteen. Sorry Honey.

"...so he broke up with me and tole me he didnt love me anymore and he only returned because of the "baby"! i felt really bad but he still kisses me and acts like were going out but dosent want to get back!" sound familiar? Make sure that this is the guy that you want to spend THE REST OF YOUR LIFE WITH. No questions. Does he treat you like a princess? Does he make you happy?
