I have been friends who were teenage parents or pregnant at some point. And here is what I have to say about it:
1. This is why you do NOT have sex before marriage. The only one I can say I have respect for us one of my old friends who got married at 16 with parental consent. They knew premarital sex was wrong, and did what they had to do. And while her ex husband did okay, he sadly wanted to go elsewhere and not be around her anymore. Another one who was also our friend ended up pregnant be ause Este wanted to experience sex and have a boyfriend. They wore a condom, didn't break, still got pregnant. She was a virgin at the time, and was scared for her life. She aborted at some point without my knowledge and I sensed she was pregnant at that time. She went on to have another child and kept him this time with the same father until that relationship went down hill too.
What they should do is tell their parents. Learn about their options and not get an abortion at all. Abortion won't solve anything. A child didn't ask to be created but he or she is still a life. A life made up of you and this person. If you can't be responsible don't have sex. Becuase like it or not, sex is a marriage and your already one with that person for the rest of your life. It's not a joke. But it is survivable.
They should still go to school part time if most, find a job, and get all the support they can. Real friends SUPPORT YOU. I did when one of my pregnant friends didn't have anybody. And the guy should not be a coward and run away. He should support his family because their a family now. That is why you wait for marriage to have sex. Because it's not a game, a toy or just aboit pleasure. It is more than that. And it's powerful. That power created another human being. And as parents you are responsible. But again, survivable. By yourself is tough. But together they can get a little easier.
People stop playing games with birth control nonsense and abortions. Get married, then have sex. It's not the end of the world if you get married young but choose wisely your mate and future parent of your children. You're not children anymore, you're young adults. And it's about time you start being treated like adults. Teen pregnancy in a sense is not bad. It's motherhood, it's fatherhood. It's been long done for eons. What's bad is your Reckless Behavior, runnng away from tough idsues, can't be loyal or have self control, and then blame other people for your choices. I respect people who do was morally right. I have no respect for cowards. It's only societies supported instead of Shame.
Depends on the relationship for one, the teenagers themselves too. Being young doesn't make them shit parents. Also everyone judging this made up scenario- anyone stopped to ask if they WERE using birth control? It fails sometimes. It's how I've got my boy. Wouldn't trade him for the world but considered abortion when I found out I was pregnant. Just lost my job was unsure on supporting them but my partner was amazing so we kept him. 🤷 Much more context is needed here.
Regardless of what liberal judges tell you people, Abortion is Murder/infanticide and there are even international laws against that, but they never get enforced.
Like I said on that other thread, I don't mind if my 14 years old daughter does get pregnant, as long as she is mature enough and responsible enough to get a job and finish her education and raise the child. I'll even gladly help raise the child, because I love kids anyway. However, a "Mature" person doesn't get pregnant by accident anyway, because they don't have sex if they know they can't afford the consequences of sex.
My sister was a virgin until she graduated college, and she dumped guys who wanted premarital sex, and her husband was her classmate for four years in High School and he had a crush on her the entire time, and he just patiently waited for every other guy in school to make a fool of themselves before he asked her on a date. Now they've been married for 10 years and have a son, and he makes about 110,000 per year income and she makes about 105,000 per year income.
Anyway, if my future daughter is "mature" and responsible, I don't care, but usually "mature" means not having sex ahead of time in the first place, unless she's like a genius and a self made million by 14 or something, which I've heard of a few self-made millionaires by the age of 16, so I guess it's possible...
Even using protection you still can get her pregnant. Condoms are not a 100% guaranteed way of stoping pregnancy. Go together to get her tested and if she is pregnant then own up to it. It seems like either you do not believe her when she says she is pregnant or if you do end up with proof of her being pregnant you want to her to get an abortion because you want to do adult things with not having to deal with any of the long term consequences.

I was pregnant as a teen and I dont regert it at all. Had a fallout with my family but my baby daddy was supportive and now we are married and had another baby so it all worked out in the end. Its not as bad as some make it seem
I think they should freak out a little bit first before making any decisions. If the guy wants to bail, he's going to bail, and the military or peace corps is an excellent place to disappear through for that. If the girl wants to keep the kid, or even if she doesn't. It'd be best if she talked to her parents, they're going to be involved at some point. Whether financial support for a grandchild, or emotional support after an abortion.
First of all the guy should never runaway. You suggest the two of you go to the doctor at a Free Clinic together where she can get a Pregnancy test and theyvalso have counselors to talk to you both. Laws vary by States what your options are. But start with a trip to Doctor's for accurate Pregnancy Test if she says No ask for her reasoning you have a right to see Proof she is Pregnant if she exoects you to Trust her and stand by her. Even Wives show their Husbands he Paper from the Doctor saying she's Pregnant.
Any man who runs away from the responsability is a wuss. I don't support abortion but I kind of understand the fear the girl is going through so I would not judge her... adoption is another option. But the ideal way is to have a supportive family and friends who help with that burden and help raising the kid. I know a few girls who faces pregnancy as teens and their families helped with their babies. They were able to study and care for the child during their free time.
Nobody can determine what is best for another person. If she feels she wants to have an abortion, that is her choice. If she feels she wants to keep it, that is also her choice. Having a baby can change your life and body forever and only she can know what is best for herself and what she is capable of
It depends a lot on what type of society they are living in. For instance, if something like that happens in east Turkey, the well being and even the life of the girl will be threatened. What i’d do if i was pregnant in such society and wanted to have the baby is that i would run away with my boyfriend to a bigger city untill i have my baby
I didn't react well because I didn't know what advice to give. One friend had her baby the other friend asked if she should have an abortion. I told her I didn't know. When I went back to talk to her again she told me she miscarried. I hope that is true but I never went back to ask her again if she was telling me the truth.
One of my daughter's friends got pregnant and she now has the most beautiful smart baby. In her case she has help from her grandparents and parents to take care of the baby when she is at work.
I think it depends on the person. Under 16? If you don't abort, they will both die. Over 16? Depends on the maturity and financial stability. I think it's unfair to judge them for it though, let's not act like none of us were teenagers, of which I still am. Everyone wants to get laid in highschool and some people do, you can't judge them for taking a risk that we all would have.
Depends. If they are both marriageable people its a great thing and they should get married and make it work.
If the guy is a retard and loser that girl is fucked. Which he probably is if he knocked up a girl by accident.
If the girl is a slut nasty girl id tell the guy to cut and run from the start. No possible way to make that work.
If i had a teen daughter like 15 and she got preggo by a 25 year old guy with a good job, goes to church, will treat her right... id congratulate her and tell her to be happy. If it was some ghetto jobless already having a baby mama dude id have to disown her. Thats just fucked and her life is ruined.
they should be given the choice if they want to keep the baby and have support for all parties affected.
Abortion is understandable for the mother who is scared cause pregnancy is an emotional and physically tiring thing and school is on top of that so parenthood would be kinda hard and hard on the child who won't be able to be with their parent as much.
If ethically done^(all parties r ok with the idea)
I think put ur baby up for adoption coz u r in high school u obviously can't take care of him/her thats the best way and no running away is the worst thing leaving ur girl in the time she needs u the most is not a manly decision
Well first of all, it’s no one’s god damn business and if a girl decides to abort, it’s her choice. But the teens should definitely get the parents involved. Getting married is NOT the answer, just be adults about it.
Hello there lol I’m a loner
If they wanna keep it the keep the baby if not that’s fine but don’t freak out just keep calm and relax no need for stress
They should do what they should have done in the first place. SIT DOWN AND TALK ABOUT IT. People need to have this kind of talk BEFORE having sex.
Just sit down and talk about your options and come to a conclusion. Weight your options. Involve your parents.
Depends on the situation, some may want a kid and be able to put up with what that choice brings and have strong support systems (family), some may not and can choose to opt for abortion but the guy just running away is well... pathetic.
If you have to ask this question, I’m guessing religion is not gonna stop you from aborting. Adoption is another option. If I kept the baby, I wouldn’t stay with the guy just because he donated a little bit of sperm. Just sayin’.
give birth and put the baby up for adoption or give it to relatives so they can raise it until you two finish high school and become financially stable
No not abortion and the guy should be responsible and stay with her.
I see it happening A LOT. I don't think teen pregnancy should be glorified though on TV and media the way it is. If you do have sex as a teen, you should be responsible as you can to prevent pregnancies. My boyfriend is a teen himself , he's 17 and I'm 21 and we plan to have sex soon but since I'm on the pill, we're gonna be safe as we can together until we're ready for a child.
Oh my god these other opinions here fucking suck.
Just abort the fucking thing or get a paternity test if she refuses. Do everything you possibly can to not involve yourself in parenthood whatsoever.
