If you are pregnant, please don't think your life is over. It will be hard to be so young and raise a child but w8 & mmafiter did it and I did too. Believe me, it was much harder being a pregnant teen 15 yrs ago than it is now. Everyone still looked down on you like you were scum. Now days they got daycares in High School!!!
I do so hope you'll reconsider the abortion. I really can't think of a more selfish act then conveniently getting rid of a baby so you can have a "normal" life... whatever that's supposed to be.
I recently got pregnant, twice actually, with fade using the pull out method... miscarried both times in the 6-7 week time frame. I would give anything to have those babies. Noone will ever convince me they were just a bunch of cells.
I know how you feel about the adoption thing, too. I couldn't stand the thought of knowing I had a child in this world and didn't know if he was ok. I knew another girl that gave away her baby girl and she regrets it to this day.
Bottom line girl... I'm here if you need someone to talk to, regardless of how all this turns out.
