I am in the same situation, except im not
sure if i am pregnant or not but mostly
likely am. The thing with that is, there
is absolutely no way i can tell my parents
because they will not support me and they
will kick me out of my house and with
that, my dad will blame it on my mother
and kick her out as well. My boyfriend is
very supportive and wants to keep the baby
if i am pregnant, i am 16 too. I am scared
out of my mind, and if i am pregnant, i
have thought about leaving my house, as in
runaway once i start to show but with my
boyfriend and his parents. I have no idea
what to think, and i cry all the time now.
If i am pregnant abortion and adoption is
not an option for me, so i will keep my
baby. It just hurts that my parents will
not be there for me and the fact that i
will tear my family apart. I seem to be
suicidal now, but i know i wont kill
myself yet i think about it but i know i
wont for a fact. I know i am very young
but i feel that i can raise this baby and
still have a future if i plan everything
out. I just know i can never talk to my
family again.
anyone care to talk to me about this?

oh and megan40, if you are 16 years old,
it is against the law for you parents to
force you to have an abortion. If you were
15 and younger, then can but your 16 so
they cant

I am 16 and I recently went
to the gyn to get birth control and they
told me I was slightly pregnant. I dont
know what they meant byt the slightly but
ive been buggin out ever since. I told my
sis today and she gave me money to get a
test me and my b.F (nick) are going
tomorrow to get one. Im so scared of what
the result might actually be. In some
ways I think it will be a great
expierience but in other ways I think its
to early I wanted to wait til I was like
23 to have a baby.The daddy is very
supportive and loves me soo much but im
afraid of my parents to tell them. I
want to keep the baby if I am for sure
preg. But im soo afraid to tell them.
The daddy makes a lot of money well kinda
he makes almost 20 and hour and he will
help in every way to support it but I
really think my parents will disown me and
he might get kicked out of his house. I
dont know how this happened to me a week
ago I was fine and now I dont know what I
want to do. I know I wouldnt get an
abortion it wasnt even a choice its dad
wouldnt want me to either. I was
thinking of leaving a note for my mom
telling her my situation and running away
for a little while. If you have any
advise on my situation please email me
back! Or any ideas on how to break the
news to my parents...Thanx

MEgan whatever you do.....don't get an

legally be pressured into an abortion or
not. I'm not sure where you live but
here's a help line for you. They will
help you with anything and everything,
medical expenses, all of pregnancy and
adoption stuff if you want. Most have

It's a great, trustworthy organization,
give it a shot!! Pm me if you need any
help, I know of more resources also! I'll
be praying long and hard for you, don't
give up, that baby deserves to live!!
There's another, i'm not quite sure about
them, but they should be able to help
you!! God bless!!

All I have to say is that you are 16
although not a child, you are also not an
adult. However you are entering into a
very adult decision. A baby is not a
"idea" or something. Its a very serious
matter and you need to take proper steps
in moving forward with it. You need to be
honest with your parents. Start getting
into the doctors, takign care of yourself
and your unborn child (if you are
pregnant), hiding it from you parents and
being depressed isnt helping the situation
one bit. I wish you well

Im sure your parents would be mad, any
parent would be. But the right thing to
do, is tell them. I dont think they would
want their daughter to run off and have a
child without them knowing about it...i
think they would get even more mad about
that happening.
The earlier you tell them, the more time
they have to start accepting a new life
coming into the world. And if you have all
your plans of what to do [if you are
pregnant] when the baby comes worked out
they might not be extremely mad with you
or kick you out. But make sure you know
what all your next steps are, because they
WILL ask you that a million times. Im 18
and pregnant with my first, and my parents
were not thrilled at first, but i told
them early, and they are now pretty
accepting of this.
If your old enough to make such a big
adult decision like this one, keeping the
baby if your pregnant, your old enough to
come clean, and tell them about it.
They will be mad/disappointed/upset...you
name it. But if you were just to run off
and have this kid, i think they would be
really upset about that.
Maybe explain this to your mom first, and
say something like...i've been scared to
tell you because im scared you guys will
kick me out or get mad with my
boyfriend..be open and honest about
everything with them.
I hope that helped a little
Good luck!
Oh, make sure your taking your prenatal
vitamins too! And see a doctor
