is there anyone out there that is 16 and pregnet?

Question

hi i am alison driggers and i am 16 still high school. i am haveing twins and my boyfriends mom wants me to have an abortion. what should do?

Answer 1

I don't find it right for your boyfirend's mum to interfere in this.Both you and yr boyfriend shld decide for the best of the baby.Finish High school and try to do home schooling.Plan out hw you can finance for yourself and your children.Pls don't go for an abortion first of all its dangerous and you are killing the innocent babies.

Answer 2

I personally have never beleived in abortion. I understand how you must feel, being 16 and already going through something like this. I was raped when I was 13 and went through it then. Just remember that no matter how it happens no baby ever asked to be brought into the world. Right now it is your responsibility to figure out what you think is best for the baby. If you know that you will have the help needed to support this baby then have it. If you know that it will most likely be too difficult for you, that put it up for adoption. There are so many good people out there who would love to have a baby of their own to love. There is also the option of an open adoption. This means that you can see your baby with the permission of the foster parents, and when the baby is old enough to understand it can know who you are. Either way you decide you are not a bad person. If you are mature enough to know that you can't do it by yourself then adoption is the best thing you could ever do for your child. Good luck, and I hope you are able to find the answers you are looking for.

Answer 3

The question is do you want an abortion? If so, get one. If not, I suggest you put them up for adoption. You will not be able to raise twins and finish school, get a job and have a life. Lots of guys will not marry a woman who has children to take care of no matter how wonderful she is. My daughter is 16 and I would advise her to have an abortion if she was pregnant. She has her whole life in front of her and even one child is too overwhelming for a 16 year old. I hope you did not just give the crazies on Yahoo Answers your real last name. Please edit it out

Answer 4

If you dont want to raise the babies adoption is a great way to go. There are many women that can not have thier own family and would give your child a wanderful home. His mom wants you to get an abortion because she doesnt want her son paying child support for 18 years specially for two children. You will have his whole pay check. Do what your heart tells you to do.... I had my first child when i was 13 years old and was prego at 12. I did just fine specially with his child support. Good Luck

Answer 5

Wow....that is a tough one. You are still in high school and have your whole life ahead of you. High school, college, and marriage. Children are a large responsibily, especially two kids. How far along are you? Do what you think is right. It will take a lot of thought. I really dont even have an answer for that. Do you think you can take care of kids? Are your parents there to help you. With children, you will have to put a stop to parties, going out, and having fun like a kid. It will be time for you to put your children first, and be a mother, especially when they need the love and caring from you. Are you ready to do this?

Answer 6

I got pregnant at 16 and had my baby when i was 17. My Mom always told me weather i gave it up for adoption, you'll always be looking for it and wondering how it would it would be if you had kept it. And if you had an abortion you would always regret it, and she's right. All you can do is do the best you can do and your baby will love you regardless. You'll know when you see your baby for the first time. There's a lot of help out there, go and get it. It may seem hopeless now, but its not

Answer 7

You need to do what is best FOR YOU,. You are so young sweetie, you have your entire life ahead of you. Don't keep them if you can't handle them (and I know at 16 I sure couldn't). I'n not saying you should have an abortion I am just trying to point out that keeping them and adoption are not your only options. Please don't listen to these silly people claiming abortion is murder. It isn't. Up until a certain point you have to know that they are just cells. You need to do what is the best possible thing for your future. And only YOU know what that may be.

Answer 8

If you want to keep the babies, fine honey, but promise me something...do not depend on this young man. If he is there, then he is there. Enforce that fact that he needs to be financially and emotionally responsible, but if he is not please do be a stupid girl and chase him through these streets trying to make your relationship "work".

If he does not want to be there, let him go, it will hurt but after a while becomes easier for you. 16 is kind of young but there is a lot of help out there for you. Stay your lil *** in school and even go to college. it will never be easy, honey you just threw easy out the window.

But nobody ever said life was a simple thing. We all have our challenges and strife, but it is how you hold your head.

I hope that your parents are as loving as mine were and end up being understanding. See I had my daughter at the age of 18. At first my mother HATED me, I even moved out with the so called father. But after the birth of my beautiful, now four year old daughter, it became painfully obvious this "man" was still a boy and no where near ready for a child.

I tried to "tie" him to his responsibility, but it ended up causing me a lot of heartbreak.

keep your head up little mama. Hit me over email if you need a friend

Answer 9

I wont quote any bible thumping stuff that I am sure that you have heard already. I feel that adoption is the best shot for you. My mother gave up my oldest bro to adoption when she was a teen. He grew up in a good family and became an officer in the US Army. They will get a good life and be well taken care of if you and your family can handle this responsibility.

If you have family that could take care of them then you should try to keep them and force the daddy's family to pay child support until daddy could pay it himself (I assume he is as young as you)

Answer 10

Dont get an abortion. Its bad enough people are killing there baby. But ur killing two angels. People will definately reach out for a baby, especially if they are twins. Seek adoption and if its tought with ur family and BF, seek a guidance counselor while ur at it.
