In what state can a 16 year old give birth without parental consent to the doctor?

Many: Well - assuming the teen carries the pregnancy to term - no one will be able to stop her from delivering as the unborn baby will prompt this parental consent or not. I think you want to know if parents must be informed - and often at the age of 16 minors can have some medical procedures - including birth or aborting - without notifying parents.

Legal question: Here's an example (below) of a booklet on the law regarding minor's rights and health care. Please speak with a responsible and trusted adult about these issues. Share the problem and get the support you need. http://www.nyclu.org/files/thl.pdf.
