16 And Pregnant Need Advice Posted: 12-29-05 13:58pm
Hi, im 16 and pregnant. I just found out
a couple of days ago. Im really worried
because I dont know what to tell my
parents.... My boyfriend is really
supportive. I will only be a junior in
high school next year. And he will be a
senior and he wants to go to collage and
so do i. We both want it so bad. But we
are both worried about the future and how
we are going to support the child. We
have been dating for almost three years
and we are so inlove. But we just dont
know what to do.
If you have any advice what would be so
good!

thank you

Do what your heart tells you. If you
think, truly, that you can offer this
child a good life, then keep him/her and
raise it. If you can't, although it might
be the hardest thing you ever ddo, give it
up for adoption. I'm 18 and had twins 7
weeks ago, nov. 6. My fiance weren't in
any real great position to have even one
child, however we felt that if nothing
else, we could contact government agencies
that could elp up raise our children.
There are tons of good programs that can
help you in your decision making. Try a
pregnancy resource center. Or the local
health department. Anyone place would be
willing to help. Try even churches to
give you some the the support you need.
Because you are really young to have a
child. Do what you think is best. Think
about things before you tell your parents.
Have a "plan" organized and thought out.
And don't souly depend on your
boyfriend... Parents can be the best
friends ever!!!

Thank you so much... The thing is is that
im so scared to see what my sister will
say. She is like the " perfect child "
she is working is politics she wants me to
go places in life. I dont know how she
will cope with this. I will only here bad
things from her. My parents are a
different story. Also my boyfriend doesnt
want to be a young father and is scared to
tell his parents. I mean we could be ok
and get threw it I know it.
I think we are going to talk to some
councilers to see an adult point of view
to show the pro's and con's.
