What should a 14 yr. old girl do if she is pregnant??

Question

her boyfriend will support her but her family wouldnt and she dosent want to dissapoint her family

Answer 1

get an abortion. you can get it done at planned parenthood without your parents knowing.

Answer 2

And just how will the boyfriend support her?

None of the 50 states in the union will allow a 14 year old boy to get a full time job at above minimum wage, he can't even get a drivers license and he won't be able to vote, and he can forget about leasing an apartment or buying a house, only someone who is 18 or older can do that.

If you are pregnant, tell your parents. Get rid of the scumbag who got you pregnant, finish school, then go to college and get a decent job.

Answer 3

First, you didn't mention HOW pregnant she is. She may not have a lot of options. It is important for her to get to a doctor or clinic for a check-up and advice.

I don't know how old the boyfriend is--is he capable of supporting her--financially or emotionally??? Is he willing to drop everything and become a husband and dad?? Is he able to stand up to the girl's family and be a man??

It's a bit late to worry about disappointing the family--she did that when she had sex (no parents want their children to start that young). Now, she has decisions to be made--and she is too young to make most of them without a parent or an of-age husband.

Answer 4

She should come out and tell her parents, she may underestimate them. THere are many support groups and charities.

Go in the phone book, there are crisis pregnancy centers and Catholic charities willing to support her the entire way through.

I'm just going to say, if she get's an abortion, that's a LONG time to live with the memory of getting on that table and getting her child killed. Life is long and we all pay for what we do eventually. Choose wisely.

Answer 5

A 14 year old girl shouldn't have to deal with such a situation in the first place. Disappointing her family shouldn't be an issue here. Their lack of supervision has apparently gotten her in this situation in the first place. She needs to tell her parents and if they don't deal correctly with it, she needs to report to the local health department not only for prenatal care but they will help her decide what to do.

Answer 6

hi there let her seek a social worker at the school let her seek help she is young now it's up to her to get help if her family rejects her. thier is help out there she is not alone. listen about a month ago right here where I live a 14 year old girl throw her baby out the window everyone was shock the girl is in jail and her parents did nothing to help her . your freind is young only her boyfriend if he is willing to help her depending how old he is can do so but a social worker or policemen or another friend there are shelters to help out too even your local church . do not be sad . god bless

Answer 7

*
Assuming these two do not have drug/alcohol problems.
*
If she has a decent, boyfriend who can support her and love the mother and the baby, then they should get on with their life as long as they understand their lives are not about themselves anymore but caring for that child that is completely dependent upon them. They should both go to parenting classes regularly to reinforce the seriousness of their responsibility.
*
The mom needs to understand that she is a woman who is a mother and a wife now and now that is her life.
*
The dad needs to understand the family comes before everything including his convenience or comfort.
*
The grandparents need to set a good example and set high expectations for continuing education and responsible behavior.

Answer 8

You need to talk to your parents. U are 14 and this is a big decision to make, but if u were responsible enought to lay down, have sex and end up pregnant then do the right thing and take care of it. This is one of the consequences of having sex at a young age. You made your bed now u have to lay in it

Answer 9

She should lean on her boyfriend, but see how the family will act after some time passes. I know a lot of families get mad at first because they wanted more for us, but hey things happen. If they get on board then you will have a complete package

Answer 10

Well that depends. At your stage in life, it would be very challenging for you to keep it. But, this is all up to you. You need to first make sure you go to either a doctor or planned parenthood to make sure you are pregnant, and that you are healthy at this point in time. Deciding on what to do with your baby is all your choice. If you are still with the guy who help you into this situation, you need to talk with him about this. Confide in someone you trust, also.. like your parents. They need to know about what is going on. You have many options, but please seek medical assistance as soon as possible!!
go to plannedparenthood.org. They have tons of information on there. Good luck, and please from now on, be careful!

Answer 11

her family will come around. They're the blood of that girl they wouldn't leave her. Second thing, that girl should start learning her own lesson & growing up taking responsibility for her own actions & prevent herself from making foolish mistakes again. It's OK to fall but she needs to learn to get up on her own & make sure she won't trip over again
