If you are not going to be in the picture then she should put the child up for adoption so that he/she will have a two parent home.

This is a choice she'll have to make her self and if she is young her and her mother. If here mother is as good as you make her out to be no matter how old she is her mother will be there for her. Also remember lots of children are never adopted and left in the system and foster care. She also has the option of abortion some people don't believe I respect that but it is an option( right) that ever woman has... Just look in the heart it will be fine any which way she decides to go!

Making the decision to be a Mom is always scary. Once she gets over the initial fear of just being pregnant, she will see things more clearly. We go through a pretty real shock when we find out we are pregnant, make sure she doesn't make any spontaneous decisions in the next few days. She needs to give the idea time to sink in. As far as considering adoption, she has plenty of time to decide on that.

She should put it up for adoption. There are so many couples out there who want children and can't have them. The best thing she could do would be to give her child a chance to have a good family that can take care of it. That would also give your friend a chance to have a life, go to college and do the things that she wants to do. Hopefully this will remind your friend to use protection!

I think she should sit down with her mom and talk about the options they have. because if her mom is open to helping her with the baby she might not have to give it up. And maybe she's just worried like all of us moms that the first time we feel that we aren't enough or won't be good at being a mom but most of the time is just nerves.

The question is: How old is she? If she is late teens & her family is willing to help her she should have no reason to think that she won't be as "good" a mother as she has. If she is early teens she'll really need to think about giving the baby up for adoption. Or live a good part of her young life on welfare. Good luck

Everyone worries about being a good mommy. I think it's something genetic in women to make us try harder. If her mom has been a good one, then she's had a good example & she'd probably be fine. If she wants the baby and can afford to care for it, then she should keep it. We all figure out how to be parents by trial and error...and listening to other experienced mommies. Not that we have to do everything everyone says...that'd make you crazy!

she definately should have thought about that before she got pregnat! she needs to keep her baby, how could she give it away? She would regret that for the rest of her life. If she is unsure she can handle it she should has her mom to help her out and teach her a few things.

It is her choice. If had sex with choice then treat the child god gift. What is her or his fault who had not yet seen the world. Be brave.
