Do you have anyone who can buy you plane tix on-line? A parent can buy you tix on-line and send you the link so you can print them off yourself. If you don't have a printer at home, you can go to the library and print for ten cents.
I don't know what's in Astoria but you can Google it or you can do a Yahoo! search. Search for "Pregnancy Care Center." These are usually Christian people who will find you a safe place to stay and help you get the health help you need for you and your baby.

one call a relative, two look on the internet or ask a neighbor to help u make a decision or I could help..How far along are? If your over 6 months then its go to be at home but if not them try to find a job. Wit that job money, find yourself another apartment because your boyfriend must not want you there since u always get him mad. Then find out for yourself if u want to hav ethe baby or not. A man has no ******' idea what it is like to carry a baby any damn way so truthfully, **** him since he is being a self center ***** probaly like his momma. Call friends and ask them to help get u somewhere for help!! Truthfully, I'm only 13 and that's what I think u should do.

I did a quick Yahoo search and these are the women's shelters I found with their phone numbers. If none of these are close to you then they should be able to tell you one that is. Have you tried calling your family back home? They might be able to spot you the money for a ticket home. I would just leave him now.

Go to a local womens health services place - like a womens shelter - What about your family? Break down and call them - no matter how bad it is - the alternative - staying there is worse.

The google search below has some options for help. Can you call your parents for help? Even if you are estranged, now would be the time to do it, you need someone to get you out of that situation.

Open up th phone book to the yellow pages and see if there are shelters you can go to. A nearby church or police station or fire station or even the hospital or clinic. If you are pregnant you are going to need medical care.Best wishes.

go to a local woman's shelter. get out of there NOW. don't get an abortion. if you don't want to keep seek out adoption agencies, and if you agree with it, see if the family willing to help you out will get you home. i know some families pay for adoption services, and you might find a family will help you out because you help them out with the baby? just a suggestion. i recommend getting out and getting counseling. quick.

Call your parents and ask them to send you a plane ticket. Do they know your pregnant? If not. I would recommend you tell them that first.
