Uhhh, no they can't legally make you do that. But a kid is kind of a big deal and if you don't have a daddy around you're going to be in a world of hurt.

If you are 15 and pregnant, you would not be the first 15 yr old unmarried pregnant girl in your area. Keeping your baby is going to be a physical and emotional challenge. You need all the stability you can get in your life and that means having your parents on your side. Sure, it may be difficult and everything as you know it may change. Adoption is not a terrible thing but it is hard to give up the baby you just gave birth to. That is why parents want abortion in that situation, and some teenagers choose abortion in that situation. All of this information is overwhelming but even your school guidance counselor can get you started in the decision-making process, with the hope that you may someday be able to be back in school. It is not the first time the school has seen a pregnant teenager! Yes, it's too young to be assuming this responsibility and parents know this; they feel that they have to have a role only because they can offer support whatever the solution. It's a shock and disappointment and that feeling is not going to go away soon. The most important person is the baby - to commit to having the baby means you must have good medical care. Connecting with other teen mothers helps to learn about making decisions with the baby coming first.

In the US they can't make you. It is your body and in this country you have the right to chose to keep the baby or not, there are a few states that want to make it that women that are under a certain age must have permission from their parents to have an abortion. The girl should talk to someone at her school that can direct her in the right place for what she wants to do, that is if she isn't getting support from her parents for what she wants to do. There are family clinics that can also help you find adoption agencies and talk about the abortion process if that is the way that you want to go. The people at the clinics aren't going to push the girl one way or another they are just there to give information.

If you do not do one or the other, how will you take care of the baby? Do you have a job to support the both of you? Do you have any idea of the responsibility of raising another human being? Being up at all night when the baby is sick, not going anywhere because you have a kid to take care of. No dating unless you can find a guy who wants to date a mom and most parents do not want their sons to do that? If mom and dad don't babysit, who do you leave the baby with to go out? Going without things so you can buy your baby clothes and diapers. Do you think it fair for the responsiblity of you and your baby to be put on the shoulders of your mother and father? They are trying to tell you they do not want this added burden in their lives. There are loving couples who are wanting a baby, so let the baby be adopted if abortion is not an option for you. This can actually put enough strain on your parents marriage to cause a divorce. Think about what you have done and what you need to do to correct the situation. Fifteen is too young to be a mother. If you have the baby and your mother and father will not help you, are you ready to live on welfare?

Your parents cannot force you to have an abortion, and if you go to a clinic and they suspect you are there because you have been forced to go, they are NOT allowed to continue with the procedure.
As for adoption... they can and they can't. Legally, they can't, but in reality, a baby costs a LOT of money, and being 15, I can only assume you don't have the funds and time to raise the child on your own. If they refuse to give money or babysit, you will have to give the baby up.

Yor parents can't make you have an abortion, it is an unneccesary medical procedure and no doctor would perform it if you don't want it.
The only reason a doctor might perform an abortion on you would be if the pregnancy put your life in danger.
Your parents can't make you give your baby up for adoption, it is your baby and your responsibility.
No adoption agency would accept the child of a mother who did not willingly give it up, that would be kidnapping.

Hi there. Most states have acknowledged that a pregnant teenager is competent enough to make decisions in regards to her pregnancy. Her parents can pressure her to do something, but they have no legal grounds to impose an abortion or adoption.have a good spring and always use condoms.

NO.... even in spite of the shown fact that the male determines the intercourse of the toddler it doesnt remember if his father had 5 boys and one million woman. The men probability is no longer decrease for having a woman. Its a 50/50 ingredient even in spite of the shown fact that I do be conscious some familys tend to the two have extra boys or extra women in them i think of its in basic terms the coolest fortune of the draw.

No. If you want to keep and can care for the the baby then keep it, if not give it up for adoption. Whatever you do dont get an abortion. Abortion is murder! It should be illegal. Theres no excuse for killing an innocent life and it can scar you for life. God bless you and pray and rely on God always. He loves you remember that. ♥♥♥

you know about three weeks ago i was in my goverment class, and talking about abortions.
if the girl is under 18 she can get an abortion w/o the permission of her parents.
if her parents wont let her have an abortion then they can go to court and whatever the case is most likely shell win.
hopes this help.
p.s. in the first place why would a young girl be having sex w/o protection?

No they couldn't force you to get an abortion, however I'm not too sure about giving up the child for adoption. It may depend on the state that you are in.
