Don't abort it just cause some smart butt here popped off! That's your choice, and you need to find someone/somewhere you can go to get just that!! Your options and choices. Most phone books have hotlines. Your local planned parenthood will have info too. Or a clinic/dr.
You will find that there are alot of people who will help you and not judge you! It's time to be responsible for your actions and start with making your choices and living with them. Use the internet to for things in your area hun!!!!
I don't know where you are, but you can always send me an email and I'll answer, sounds like you could use a friend!!!

Go to your local social service dept. and ask to see a social worker. Ask at your library if there are any organisations which help single parent mothers. You need to sit down with someone and get some advice.
Think it through, being a parent is a huge responsibility, you will need practical help in terms of accommodation, finanical help as babies are expensive they need feeding and clothing. When your freinds are goinf out socialising you will have to stay at home to look after your baby, so here is the social isolation of having to raise a child yourself. It's best to talk this through now with a councellor or social worker. If you decide to have your baby and raise it yourself it will not be easy, it's a real challenge and you will neeed all the support you can get. of course being a parent can also be the most rewarding this in the world, enjoy it, the years wil fly by before you know it, but think of the consequences too.

I'm sorry your parents are not willing to help you at this critical time in your life.
If you are still in school, talk to a counselor or the school nurse about your options. Do you belong to a chuch? Your pastor might also have resources to help you, or might be able to point you in the right direction.
I hope you would consider adoption if you don't want to keep your baby. There are many happy and loving families who would love to help you. This website: http://www.itsaboutlove.org is a free service that can put you into contact with families, counseling services etc. It's free and there are no questions asked. Good luck.

Your doctor for a start, or a walk-in clinic. They can head you to groups that will provide support. Do you have relatives or close friends that could help out? Or do you belong to a church or other religious organization, one that will be supportive, not judgmental? It's tough being alone in any situation, but this is not a good time to have to go it alone.
Good Luck and Take care!

Do a search on Yahoo search for Human Services, make sure you put your county in there too. Good luck in this and be sure to get the father to help out too. This is his creation as well. Also, get some assistance for college or getting a job as you will need this.

Find a loving family to adopt the baby if you can't give it the life it deserves. Don't have the baby & dump it or bury it alive or drown it. Someone out there can not get pregnant & would do anything to adopt a healthy newborn. If abortion is an option to you, just know that you will live w/that decision forever.

You should contact the county and state in which you live now to see what programs they might have to help you. There are state run unwed homes for you to live until the baby is born. Chin up, smile, you have options you just need a little help to see them. Hugs

Go to your local Department of Human Services, Women/ Infants/Children (WIC) and then to the medicaid office. If they are in the same place, that will be good. But go to your DHS office first and they will be able to help you.
