I am 18 years old and I am attending my
first year in a community college. I
think that I am pregnant. My parents are
very streaked. I don't know if I should
aboard my child or just tell my parents.
My boyfriend and I are the only ones that
know. I have a little time before the
embryo gets to big. I forgot to mention
that I play basketball. I am on a
scholarship. This is the biggest mistake
and or situation that I have ever
encountered in my life.

Babies Are a Blessing Posted: 09-30-03 10:31am
You should keep your baby or give it to a
loving family. The baby is here for a
reason, even if you feel you can't raise
it.
I hope you make the right choice.
Good luck,
jennifer

Hey chynadoll
you need to to talk more to your
boyfriend about this... What ever you
decide, it's going to have to be a mutual
agreement. I truly think you should tell
you parents even if you decide not to keep
the baby. If you do abort it, it's going
to be hard on you physically and mentally
and I think the best people to help you
out are your parents and you boyfriend.
It going to be hard on him too. I wish
you the best of luck.....Keep us
posted.....
Your friend'

Just wanted to drop a line to say that
this decision is one that should include
your bf's input and support. Although I
must agree with babypassion and say you
should tell your parents either way...
Incase something were to go wrong. Either
way if you ever need to talk just pm me
and i'll be here to listen.
(((hugs))))

Do not take opinions of others. Do what
you think you need to do. I have been in
your situation. Don't feel guilty no
matter your decision.

No one can make this decision for you. If
you decide that it is the best thing for
you then by all means do it. However
weight out the pro's and con's of each and
be sure to discuss it with family and your
boyfriend as you will need their support.
Would you consider adoption? Or is that
not an option? I am against abortion but
if you feel comfortable doing it and you
can live happily afterwards then go with
your heart darling!
Much love

Abortion/pregnancy Posted: 10-10-03 08:29am
I thank everyone for there input. I have
read each and every one of them. Although
my boyfriend and I are not ready to take
of a child, I found out that I wasn't
pregnant. I went to the doctor office
after I posted this subject, and was told
that I wasn't pregant. It was a close
call, but it made me learn so much. I
learned that no matter how long that you
know a person or how much you love a
person always protect yourself. The
condom did break after his ejacalation.
That's why I thought I was. Now I am on
the birth control patch and everything is
back to normal. Thanks to you all
!!!!!!!Hugs hugs hugs hugs!!!!!!!!

Not the Baby's Fault! Posted: 12-15-03 18:52pm
How you could look at an innocent, brand
new life as a mistake I don't know. I do
realize that it is very scary, as I have
been through it once when I was 15 and
terribly naive as to what being pregnant
entailed. But I sucked it up - I loved
that baby too much to give up on it for my
own selfish reasons! (she is 4.5 now and
absolutely a gift from god!) after
all...It isn't the baby's fault that you
and your boyfriend weren't careful, or
maybe just not careful enough. Sorry if
this sounds very harsh, but under the
given circumstances, I can't see you
making a very good argument that would
make abortion seem like the 'right'
choice. Abortion is very rarely the
"solution", and it is always ending a life
that you are responsible for.
