My best friend is 17 and has just found out she is pregnant. The "sperm donor" is 24 and her parents think he is 19. He was in town visiting his cousin for awhile and that is how he met her...he went back to los vegas the week before she found out. She told him about it and he basically told her to do what she wanted to do and basically what we think is that he is not gunna be any part of it..but that could change. Her parents on the other hand...she told them about a week after she found out. The next day her mom took her to a place to set up an appointment for an abortion...so she has until tuesday to decide what she is going to do. If she keeps the baby her mom told her that she cant live in her house because she "just couldnt deal with it" so...that basically has her living with me. We are both still in high school and both graduating in October. she will be 18 in October and the baby would/will be due in January. I know this is alot..but i would just like to know your opinions. im really stressing out about this and i dont know how she is dealing with it...help! ↓

Has your friend considered adoption. My husband and I would love to adopt a baby and if she is interested we'd like to talk to her about it. We live in NC and even if she doesn't want to give to the baby up for adoption if she needs someone to talk to I am a good listener. My email is [email protected]

honestly, i know what you are going through, my best friend had her baby three months ago. I woudn't consider abortion because think about the great times that the mother would miss. I know you guys are still in high school, but there are many other options of schools, There is always going to an alternative school. It keeps up with the timing of the baby, it will give you the time you need to take care of a new born. About the father thing, it is his loss, and as long as you give your friend alot of support it should be okay, it will be hard considering she will be a teen mother, but it's possible. She just needs your support and comfert. Help her out alot. ↑
