yeah i would. I mean the baby reallly needs a father from the start. I think you should give it a try and if everything doesnt work out then just send him back off but i think youshould give him a chance.

Yes, I probably would, but I would also either set-up a savings account and have him give you the money to put in the account, so they could move out on their own at 18, or I would make him pay his part on some of the bills. I would not just let them live there and do nothing. I believe that if they are big enough to play then they should have to "pay". Which basically means work and take care of the child they have created together. Do let them both be there for the child, but don't let them just live off of you for free. Good Luck...

It depends. If your daughter wants to - the worst thing you could do is to prevent the father from coming. Remember - even though your daughter is only 16, a baby growing up with no father will be much less healthier and happier than if growing up with the father.
If your daughter doesn't want it - whats the question? The father will respect it.

Personally, I was a teen mom and my son's dad lived in the same state and he said the same thing... My mom didn't let us move together for the simple fact we werent married and we were teenagers... She did however support us in our relationship that wasn't worth anything...She was respectful of him and let him stay over only when the baby was sick or something like that.... You could let them stay together but there's a chance that they could have a second child and possibly have issues. I would teach her to be a mom first and worry about the relationship later....

No, I wouldn't. The only contact she would have with the boy would be the monthly support check.
I would do everything I could to convince my daughter to have an abortion, short of straight coersion or kicking her out, so that she wouldn't become an unwed teenage mother to begin with. I would bribe her, offer to pay for the abortion, buy her a car, pay for college, whatever it took. If I couldn't convince her to terminate the pregnancy, I would try to get her to give it up for adoption. I would do anything I could to keep her from ruining her life.

Assuming that he is of good character I would allow the babies father to move in as it is in the best interest of the child.

Most likely I would ask her to give it up for adoption. If she chose to keep it, then he could live with us if they got married and went through extensive marriage counseling. If they refused to get married then he can just move on his own... they chose to have sex so they must accept any hardships that come with it. I would help him out a bit at first, but that would be it.

i would because at least the baby would have a mother and a father to look after it but it is still a very young age to be pregnant
