Denise - im sorry I was so harsh on you. I was not in a good mood to begin with and it shouldn't of came out on you. Its a good thing you are giving ur baby up for adoption though sweetie. Do you really think you could handle all of the responsibility? We'll help you with any questions you have. Much love melissa

Denise I think you are making the best choice anyone can make. You are very smart about that. I think giving a baby is a great idea, if I was closer to you, id try to adopt it! But there are so many great families that make alot of money, have great jobs and have alot of love that would want your baby. Well what kind of help do you want? Right now all we can offer is emotional support. I hope you do clean up yourself and continue school

Denise, if it helps I read this book once of a teenager and she was pregnant and thought she would keep it. But going through it, she figured out she couldnt. She was just a kid. So she gave it to a great family. Even though it killed her, she knew she was giving the baby a better chance at life. Here is a sumary I found for you. You can find it at a library, its called annies babyby beatrice sparks. Its a true story, of a girls diary. Maybe you can read it for help.

The first, most excruciating entries in 14-year-old annie's diary trace her victimization and impregnation by a manipulative and sadistic boyfriend. Completely obsessed with 16-year-old danny ("he called me an 'earth angel.' and I think i'm going to commit myself completely to being just that for him, no matter what!"), annie is less prepared than readers for the devastating fall she takes the day her home pregnancy test comes out pink. The remaining, more solution-oriented segments of the book convey annie's arduous climb from rock-bottom ("i cannot bear to face it! I will not!") to a state in which she can confront her mistakes and plan for herself and her child. With the support of her exceptionally tolerant mother, patient teachers and a nonjudgmental therapist (supposedly sparks), annie changes from a self-deprecating romantic ("could plain me possibly be good enough for awesome him?") to a more level-headed realist, who learns, painfully, to put her baby's needs before her own. The book carries a strong anti-abortion sentiment and has an aura of soap opera as well. However, it provides a plethora of objective and valuable information about sex, pregnancy and birth control, and even includes a "what is love?" quiz to help girls assess their relationships. An appendix lists relevant statistics, crisis and information hotline numbers, and other useful resources. Tackling issues young adolescents are often reluctant to discuss with adults, this volume will likely find a place on the reference shelf.

Nikki-u shud change careers and become a book critics-ur gud at this stuff!

Lol! Unless she took the review off amazon.Com! !!!!!!!

"i want to keep my baby" is another good one! Thats what I thought you were talking about when you explained the first one nikki! Its really good. I forget who its by but in the end the girl decides she cannot go to school take care of the baby and go to work all together. And she was 16. Its really good! I read it when I was like 13 or something and I still remember it. Much love melissa

No tanya, I didnt get it off amazon! I got it from yahoo! Lol, I cant write all that to be a critic. Maybe if I had alot of time in my hands, which I do, but talking about books is fun but im not sure if it pays well...Hmm. Lol I just like the books.
