Hi there, thanks for reaching out today.
Sounds like you are wanting to Virgin Islands to get married at 16. Generally speaking, 18 years old is the age you can legally get married without parental consent in the U.S. and it's territories. So you would still need parental permission as you would in the states.
Seems like you have a lot going on as you mentioned wanting to be free. Please know that we are always here for you. Please call or chat us if you would like to talk in detail (1-800-RUNAWAY; www.1800runaway.org).
Best,
