My question involves guardianship in the State of: Missouri
Recently my girlfriend and I found out that she is pregnant. We have intentions of getting married and raising our child together, but have run into some trouble with her guardian. I am 22 and she is almost 18. As a child her mother gave guardianship to the grandmother. The grandmother is now not allowing us to see each other or marry. She also is threatening to fight for an adult or extended guardianship.
I am looking for legal advice on what my options are. Being my girlfriend is a child of the state can the state allow her to marry without consent of the guardian? And can the guardian receive an adult or extended guardianship after she turns 18? I have read the Missouri guardianship laws to a small extent but I am under the impression that to receive a guardianship after the age of 18 the courts have to find my girlfriend incapable of providing for herself. Any and all advice will be helpful. Is there something that I can do or do I have my hands tied right now?
