But only if you have a written consent from your parents and is presented in front of the court. But as any parent wouldn’t want there child to get married at such a young age they don’t allow it. Teens will leave and run away from the state and head to other places where they don’t require an kind of consent. In places such as in Montana where you don’t need a parental consent.
