What would you do if you were 15 years old (turning 16 next week) and pregnant?

Now… If that isn’t bad enough, imagine the father is a 23 year old who thinks you’re 18. What would you do?

How would you tell your parents? And… Erm, the father of the child?

If you’re parents are understanding you should talk to them and tell them what has happened. I too suggest an abortion. See what your parents say (if you have a good relationship with them) and take it from there. As far as the father, you need to tell him you lied about your age and if you decide on an abortion, you should tell him your decision, most guys would be relieved to hear that’s your decision. If you don’t want to have an abortion, you should give the child up for adoption, you’re too young to have a baby. You made a big mistake, but it can be solved and your life will continue, just learn from the mistake and move forward.

If you decide on abortion do it early because the soul of the new born
does not get attached very early on in pregnancy.No dissapointment.

I honestly don’t know what I would do.
I know what I should do? I should talk to my parents and then talk to my baby’s father. Then I would give my baby for adoption because that would be the best thing for my baby.

What I should do and what I would do might be completely different. I don’t really know how I would do because I never been in that situation.

Tell the father the truth about your age,if you keep telling lies to cover up lies it will only get worse,you must also talk with your parents no matter what you think they still love you,keep your child or you will regret it for the rest of your life uh huh

First of all I would tell the guy how old I was and ask him to marry me. If he says yes tell your parents and ask for their permission. You will need it to marry. If he says no look into adoption or abortion. You are too young to raise a child by yourself.

How pregnant are you? If you are 9 weeks or less you can take a pill that will abort the fetus but you will have to be at a clinic with a doctor. If you are over 9 weeks you will have to have a real abortion.

If you are white and not a crack addict people will pay all your expenses and you can even make money putting your child up for adoption. For some reason white healthy babies are at a premium and many people are looking to adopt them.

DO NOT GET MARRIED, YOU ARE TOO YOUNG! I agree with those that said talk to your parents, tell them what happened and see what advice they have. Personally, I think an abortion is the way to go and then move on with your life.
