I'd give it up for adoption if I were in your place.

Ok, first find out for sure if you're pregnant or not. Take a test. If you are see a counseling center for young moms. They can help you decide what's best for you.

Take a pregnancy test first so you don't start worrying and it could be nothing.

If you are pregnant think about what YOU think you should do not what other people think you should do. Speak to someone close about it and let your boyfriend know about it. Don't be upset with what option you took. Just remember to be careful next time.

It depends so much on your situation and how YOU feel rather than what people say here.

You should discuss this with a close friend/ family member/ school counsellor if you can.

Good luck in whatever you decide to do :)

keep it or adoption.

You need to talk to your parents, and maybe a NON-BIASED women's center or something.

Take a look at the options, make pros and cons of each.  Think about how a baby would fit into your life right now: how you'd finish school, whether or not your boyfriend has a chance of staying around for more years that you've been alive, how you'd finance this baby.
Look at abortion- what are your feelings on it? if you're avidly anti-choice/pro-life this may not be a good option for you. If you're not, you should look at it.
Adoption is another one- some people feel strongly about it either way. You have to think about whether you'd be able to do it after going through a pregnancy (and whether you want to go through a pregnancy in the first place)

Basically, very big decision that you need some un-biased support for.

I would keep it, but then at 15 I had a decent job. If I hadn't, I would have aborted.

Once you find out you are pregnant, if you are.  I would give it up for adoption.  You need to get your boyfriend, sit down with both sets of parents, and perhaps discuss with them what they think would be best.  You never know, they may want to take the baby and raise it as their own?  They can not make any decisions for you, but they may have some input.

actually in all seriousness, take a test. Then figure out what to do AFTER you get a positive result from a test AND a doctor.

i have NOOO idea
forfallonyy Posted at 4:59 pm on Dec. 3, 2008
adoption
MixedDelight Posted at 4:57 pm on Dec. 3, 2008
Probably abort it.

No way I'm ready to take care of some little hellion. And I'm not excited with blowing up like a balloon and going through pain worse than death to just give it away. :/

Hmmm.. I dunno.
I think abortion is horrible.. but I don't think me or my boyfriend would be ready for a baby.
Why don't you ask your boyfriend & see what he thinks, if he'd stay with you. I hope so.
Remember though, you might not be pregnant, get a test.

this. but i have a girlfriend. and i just quoted her. coincidence or what?

angel08 Posted at 4:53 pm on Dec. 3, 2008
