you really just proved my point doll. that baby is in for some shitty times if you decide to pop it out.

I really didn't.

If you don't have advice, please just leave me the hell alone. I am really in no mood to discuss with an idiot, over the internet, my maturity levels. Thanks.


fair enough, you're just hormonal, its meaningless.

At least im not the idiot expecting another idiot in 9 months  

Hate to be the guy to throw facts at you but the overwhelming majority of people who have kids out of wedlock AND under 18 ends in splitting up. Enjoy it while it lasts



Yes yes, of course you know everything? You know exactly what is in my future, my capabilities, you know my IQ, and hell you even know my future kid's IQ correct?

Why don't you shut the fuck up. No one was claiming to last forever. I simply stated, he is not up and leaving me like most scared little boys.

I am sorry, but it is quite possible for me to go to college next fall like I am GOING to, and still make more then you.

Don't doubt what I am fucking capable of.

I'm not a teen mother but.  
 I know you are only about 16, I think.  
 I know I could never live with myself if I had an abortion, I also know I would not be able to  have the child and then give it up.  
 You have to think about what is best for you right now, and what would be best for the child. It is a hard decision to make but it is one you will have to make. A lot of girls get pregnant when they are young, and have the child and raise it just fine, a lot of girls get pregnant when they are young and have an abortion and go on with life, some regret it. Some have children and give them up for adoption and never look back.    
 I have been in this situation before, luckily I miscarried and never had to make the decision.    
 If you decide to have this child would you have help from your boyfriend, his family, your family, and friends.    
 You are not the only one responsible for brining the child up, maybe your mom will be mad, but she will get over it.    

 I hope I helped even a little bit, I know this is shocking news to you, but everything will work out in the end, it always does, you will be able to make it work, no matter what you decide to do.  

 
 Edit:  
 Are you positive you are pregnant?  
 If you aren't 100% positive I wouldn't tell anyone until you are.  

 
 


I am glad you can understand. I don't want it. I mean, maybe later in life, but not now. I can't abort it, I have already been on the verge of killing myself and honest to god, that would push me over the edge. I can't give it up for adoption. I just can't.

Yeah everyone is being supportive, that still doesn't change the fact I am scared and nervous, and fuck I just wish I was hit by a car or something so it would save me the trouble.

I am 100% sure. I took 3 tests, 2 at home, both were positive, and 1 at Planned Parenthood.

I even have already sceduled a prenatal doctor visit for Dec. 12. I have been reading up, I quit smoking, and been taking my prenatal vitamins.


Good, I'm glad to hear you are being responsible about it.
It seems like adoption is the best option for you, you could make a woman who can not have children very happy by giving her your child.

Ultimately the choice is yours, things will get easier for you, I promise.

I find it funny that you bring my maturity into question, when you are picking on a pregnant 16 year old.

Hmm.

Sharpi, I really like you, so I'm going to give you the advice.

If I were you, I would abort the child. I understand that you're living on your own and in many way's you are very much capable to be a mother, but you also need to think about your education and your future, for the sake of this child.

You need to finish school so you can get a well-paying job that can support your child. I would never imagine being happy bringing a child into a world that I accidently brought them into, and have them grow up during a terrible childhood.

For your sake and the sake of your child, I would abort.

stop being a bitch and focus on this shit in your life dude. this is why i don't think you're ready. you really could have ignored me, but you're too defensive and obsessed with yourself to do that. be selfish, you're not supposed to be having kids right now. do what's good for you.

if i were you i would abort it, but it's entirely your decision, but just know that no one would hate you for getting an abortion, and at the end of the day you have to look after you, and if this baby will reduce your life happiness and such, then do the right thing. if you are less happy when you have the baby then that will result in affecting the baby.

on another note, telling your mum would be hard, but i suggest just sitting down with her and having a heart to heart. she went through the same thing when she found out about you.. just probably not at such a young age. i'm sure she will understand and help you through this.
if you decide to keep the baby, there are always places like planned parenthood to talk to about it and get advice.

don't let other people pressure you into keeping it or aborting it, make your decision yourself.
also remember you can also have it and give it up for adoption, but i think that might be harder to live with, knowing there is a kid out there who doesn't know who it's biological parents are, but i guess it isn't the end of the world, other people have been through it.

hope that helped a little.
feel free to pm me if you would like to talk about it
a lot of my friends have gone through this
:)


EDIT: fuck sorry i keep misspelling things



I can't. I can't do it, I feel horrible for even thinking about it, but that was my plan! It really was and then...

Ugh all my plans are down the toilet and now I am just confused.

My mom had me when she was 16 turning 17... which is why she will be pissed.

So you are suicidal. Ask yourself if you can truly cope with having a baby. If you are unable to handle your own emotional well being and your own health... how will you be able to handle a babies? Surely that will be beyond overwhelming to have to manage your own mental illness PLUS add another human being to the freaking picture!

I'm not going to tell you to have an abortion, that is your decision.... but you really need to sit down and have a RATIONAL talk with yourself. Is this really the right decision at this point in your life?

Even you hinted in your posts that you aren't ready for a baby... so maybe you should listen to your gut instincts... and wait?

Try and fix your own wellbeing before adding a second variable to the picture. Maybe this is just a wake-up call to make some SERIOUS changes in your life. You admitted you're pretty fucked up... so deal with it right now. No more putting things off... choose to end all this bullshit right now. Do everything you possibly can for yourself. Fuck everything else, as you can't deal with anything else until you can deal with yourself.

did your mom ever tell you that if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all? seriously, she's stressed to a degree in which you may not understand, and needs support-- not your negativity and snide remarks.

I see no capabilities, ergo theres nothing to doubt. You said you became another teen statistic and you said it best. You will most likely become one, if you go to college (which hopefully you do) it won't be the one your thinking of...most likely a run down one.  The fact your baby's daddy doesn't have a job is disturbing imo anyway unless he just lost it recently anyway.  Don't think im not wanting everything to work out for you im just simply stating what happens to most people. The people that form the statistic, the statistic that you just reinforced.

If you don't fucking stop I am going to report you. i don't like you. You don't like me, fine I get it. But don't go quoting me from the past, when I already got on fucking birth control, I already tried to prevent this. It isn't all my fault, and I am trying to do the fucking best I can right now. I don't need you, or anyone else talking out of their ass.

I can't abort it. I fucking can't, I will kill myself if I do, I don't even care how that sounds, but I will.
