Hey everyone I havent beem on in awhile so
I will let you know who I am, my name is
ashley and im 19 yrs old and 20 wks
pregnant. I have been faced with a
delema. My family is making me give my
baby up for adoption or they with
basically disown me. I want to keep my
baby even though the dad lives in rhode
island and I live in minnesota. But im
afriad to tell them that im keeping it.
We have started meeting potential adoptive
parents and I just knwo in my heart I dont
want to do that. Any advice? I will for
sure have to find my own place to live,
but I know I wil have child support and im
saving every penny I have extra now, so I
feel like I can do this but my famil means
everything to me and I dont want to loose
them... Help!! :( :(

Wow this is a really tough choice...I
think you really should follow your heart.
If you think you can support this baby
and it will have a good home then I think
you should keep it. It's wonderful you
are considering how everyone else is
feeling, but ultimetly this is your
choice. You family (even though they may
say they won't) will support you, once
they see that baby and how much it means
to you, if they love you and respect u (
and they must) will be by your side. They
just want whats best for you, but no one
knows whats best for you better than you.
Good luck, let me know how this turns out

If I were you, i'd say fuck you
guys and go live with a friend or
something with my baby.. If your parents
would disown you over a thing like that..
They aren't worth staying in contact with
anyway.
