Dont you think its wrong to let Doctors give the right for pregnant teens to get married?
Well i just found this: In Maryland
however, you should
also know that the Maryland Code provides that she could marry the
father without your consent by virtue of the fact she is pregnant.
"§ 2-301. Marriage of individual 16 or 17 years old;
marriage of individual under the age of 16 years.
(a) Marriage of individual 16 or 17 years old.- An
individual 16 or 17 years old may not marry unless:
(1) the individual has the consent of a parent or
guardian and the parent or guardian swears that the
individual is at least 16 years old; or
(2) if the individual does not have the consent of
a parent or guardian, either party to be married
gives the clerk a certificate from a licensed
physician stating that the physician has examined
the woman to be married and has found that she is
pregnant or has given birth to a child." ↓
