Hi. I had a 1 night stand with this girl
about 6 weeks ago. She said she was on
the pill. But then she text me the a few
days ago saying she was pregnant and im
the only person shes slept with recently.
Shes only 16 and she says she wants to
keep the baby. I tried to persuade her
not too but she still says she wants it.
She said she will get support from her
friends and family and I dont have to be
anything to do with her
i just dunno what to do. I spoke to my
mum and brother and they both told me that
I shouldnt have anythin to do with her. I
said but it takes 2 and my mum said shes
the one with the choice to keep it or not
so its her responsability. Im only 21 and
im in another relationship. I dont want a
baby now. I always thought that havin a
baby was somin you do when 2 people are in
love after alot of consideration and
planing. It shouldnt be the result of a 1
night stand or accident
and no pro lifers please

I think personally that you should stick
by her in her decision... I'm not
pro-life as such I agree with abortion in
certian circumstances but maybe this isn't
one of them if the mother wants to keep
the baby.
Talk to her and tell her exactly how you
feel and make her see your side of the
ordeal... You should really have used
other forms of contraception if it was
only a one night stand as she could have
an std or something.
In a way (i dont know the laws where you
are) but here in the uk you have to stick
by the mother as even if you are split up
the father has to pay for some of the
childs upbringing... It does take two,
you are right, but whatever your mother
says and however much you do not want a
kid you were the other member in the duo.
Good luck, let us know what happens.
