some of these people need to relax! Sh*t happens...........I was 19 and on the pill for 4 years when i got pregnant.
Anyway: You are not an adult until your 18., just act like one for now on.. no more parties and stupid giggling in public places .

Your not a "Full Adult" until you are 18 and even then it is iffy. I have known a few people that at the age of 30 they were more immature than a teenager. It all depends on your mentality. Although you are 16 you still cant do lots of things legally. Just remember you are going to have a child, now if you choose to keep it it will be a long and hard road. Your life is not your life anymore it is your child's and you need to have the "mental" part of being an adult. I was also 16 when I found out that I was going to have a child and I knew I need to grow up fast and that is what I did. She is now 11 years old and getting A's and B's in school. Lots of children of children don't turn out so lucky. I want to wish you good luck and hopefully you have lots of people who will support you through this.

are you living out on your own and paying your own bills?do you have a job or does he? You two will not be adults until you are responsible enough to do and have those things. I know you feel like an adult but i also know your parents have one More person to worry about now.my sister was 17 when she got pregnant,of course he left her when he found out,but she stayed at our parents house and she had a set curfew anyway whether she took the baby with her or not.but the answer to your question is no that does NOT make you a full adult but when you have the baby you'll be well on your way to becoming one because a lot of things change when you become a parent!!

No it doesn't there is more to being an adult. Most people can have a baby and still not be an adult. To take the full responsibility and be the mother and fathers guardian is a good step, but when you don't have to depend on ur parents or guardian and can fully accept all responsibility then you are a adult.

No, this does not make you a full adult
This make you a teenage mother
You have to stay in school.
I would not married for at least two years
With family support, from both family, you will be okay
No having a child does not make you an adult, turning 18, gives you a lot of legal rights. The rest comes at 21
Good luck

Legally no, you are not an adult until 18. But you are going to be a parent, which means that you should behave like an adult. It sounds like you and your boyfriend are stayiing strong together and keeping things in perspective, and just had a run of poor luck. Good luck with your pregnancy and new baby!

Is the 13 year old that's pregnant in the next question an adult?

No you are an adult at 18 to 20 years old. Did you use protection? Just curious?

A full adult? As opposed to an empty adult?
If you have to ask if you are an adult, them you are not. But you better grow up fast because children should not be having children.

No this does not make you an adult, physically, mentally or even legally. You may become an adult as a result or you may become yet another teen mom who stays a teen mom forever and never takes responsibility for her actions. Good Luck.
