i don't think she can't make you do anything but she does have to sign off on whatever you decide to do. call legal aid and see what they say for your local laws.

Well I don't know if she can make you get rid of your baby. But I do believe she could send you to a maternity home. What I do know is that in the state of Georgia the age of consent is actually 16. So technically your partener could be charged with rape. I believe, although, I'm not positive on this fact that if you decided you want an abortion then your parents have to give permission. After you have this child, please go on birth control. Your 15 and your cheating your self out of the normal high school experience especially if you have another kid. Good Luck in all that you do and bless you and your unborn child.

I don't live in Georgia, but Im pretty sure your mom can't legally force you to have an abortion regardless of where you are. As far as maternity homes, I honestly didn't know those still existed. None the less, its your baby and you have rights even as a minor. Think long and hard about what you want to do then take a stance. Even if that means finding alternate means of financial support. Good luck to you.

She can not make you have an abortion, you both have to sign the papers for that. But, she can probably send you to a maternity home, although I've never heard of that.
If she has the money to send you somewhere, I sure hope she will simply support you in your home! You certainly can't do this on your own, but hopefully your mom will be there for her daughter. That's what moms are supposed to do.

no one not even the father of the baby can Force you to have an abortion from what i understand here in tx there is a law where only your doctor can recommend and abortion if there is complications with pregnancy and also if ur more than three weeks no place legally is able to give you and abortion. one of the questions asked when havin and abortion is if someone is forcing you to do so. as for a maternity home i have no idea. good luck and take care

Your mom cannot make you do anything. Even though you are a minor, your mom does not have any control over your body and cannot make you get an abortion or force you into a maternity home.

Why not get an abortion? I'm assuming this is an unplanned pregnancy. You are too young to be able to raise a child.
It's not a matter of your parents making you do something. It's what you choose to do to solve your own problem.

She has all the right she wants to make you get rid of the baby.
A.) You're underage.
B.) She still has control over you
C.) You shouldn't be having unprotected sex when you're that young anyways.
My suggestion is, you're lucky to have a mother that wants to give you a bright future, instead of letting you have a child. There's plenty of time for that when you get older. Protect yourself and your partner next time you decide to have sex.
And seriously.
You're only 15, and depending on who the father would be and his age, both you and him could get into serious trouble regarding stagitory rape laws.

She can not make you have an abortion, but I think she can send you to a home.

15 and pregnant, now that's smart!
Why on earth would you want to try to be a mother as such a young age. I bet your mom wants you to not have this child because she will end up being the one to take care of it.
