Laws vary from state to state and country
to country, specifying where you live will
help other forum members provide you with
advice.
Generally doctors are bound be
confidentiality and unlikely to discuss
your situation. Most reports come from
parents.

Sometimes, the doctors see that the child
is young and they do call social services
to show up and ask questions. I know they
did that for my sister. And if they dont
think you will do good, they start showing
up at your house to make sure the baby is
doing good.

Weirded,
what state are you in? A bit of hope...I
was 16 also when I got preg and my then bf
(now hubby) was 23. My grandmother
called every detective around to try to
get him arrested, but they said that they
couldn't because the consent age in pa was
16. Find out the laws, or let me know
where your at so I can try to help you.
Good luck,
jennifer

Dont mention names! If you can handle the
your parents, tell them it wasnt ur b/f.
Pros & cons though!
