The parents of the girl are completely responsible for the girl. However, the parents and the boy (and his parents if he is a minor) are equally responsible for her medical needs while pregnant and delivering. * The parents of the minor female can request the court to relieve them of their parental responsibilities and make the minor a "ward of the court". The 14-year-old does not become automatically emancipated due to the pregnancy, and therefore cannot legally leave the family home and live on her own or with the father of the child unless the couple are allowed by the court to marry. The parents of the minor alleged father are not legally responsible for the support of the child born out of wedlock. In the majority of states the law requires any petition of child support to be postponed until the minor becomes of legal age and the responsibility of paternity has been established. A few states will allow a child support petition to be filed while the father is a minor; the order will then become retroactive when the young man reaches the state's legal age of majority.
