WOW, i know how you feel my sister also got pregnant at 15 and gave birth to my neice at the age of 16, they lived with us for awhile until my sister decided she wanted to do it alone then they got there own place and soon after got evicted so she moved in my older sister, Anyway my sis who had the baby has now taken off and left the baby with my older sister this is the second time she has done this and my family are about fed up with her! All i can suggest is unless your sister really wants help then dont help her my sis didnt want help i helped and she took advantage of me and the rest of my family! All we ever did was love and care for her and her child and this is what we get back a slap in the face and she has taken off to find herself a new man and left her 2 year old baby behind! Good luck!

Your sister need to get some kind of medical insurance so she can get her and her baby checked. If you go to the health center, she can apply for the medicaid. Im not sure what your sister is thinking about doing the baby but there are lot of programs out there for girls so use them much as she can. HOpe everything work out for you guys.

I would get your parents involved and let them make decisions to help her. How can she be responsible for her as guardian. I would also try to prevent her from getting into a bad arrangement with the father and get support from him.

First protect the Sister and the Baby. Involve her guardian and go after the father for support and help with the medical costs. I think she should also go to social services. Where is her mother and enlist her help.

well inform your parent firstly about it then secondly you send her to your village or hometown to stay untill she has finished delivering the baby.

well, i would def. talk to her and make sure she has some goals set in herlife, anything that she can complete before the baby comes, like her education (ged etc) then she should sign up for early parenting classes to get comfortable with the new addition. oh yeah, and see about housing for her, bc u may love your sister and all, but having her and a new baby in ur home, is going to be stressful, plus she may not get the whole jist of being responsible, and preventing this from occuring again in the near future. ihope this helps...

You sound like you come from a very dysfunctional family. You have posts saying your 15-year-old sister is pregnant, that you slept with a married man who wants to break up his family, and others along this same line. I think you all need counseling. Your sister definitely needs prenatal care. Hopefully there is someone there who will be responsible and take care of her.

My sister had a baby when she was 15...and one when she was 19 and again at 20. My dad and stepmom let her get away with murder and now they take care of the baby while she works nights at a strip club. Put your foot down now and teach her respect and morals or you'll end up with the same thing!

You should help her to keep her safe and help her make good decisions for her child

I understand how you may feel Dude. Tough spot to be in for anybody. Help out your sister this time. Teach her what's right and wrong for her and see if abortion is an option. Also, you should teach the guy who's responsible a lesson. Its justified I think.

talk to her but it shouldn't sound like you're blaming her for what had happened to her. the damage has been done, no matter what bad things you wil say to her doesn't matter now. if you can teach her some stuff about being a mother and discussing the responsibilities, it'll be awesome :)

So much so difficult to say a word about this. My opinion is, If her pregnancy is at less than 3 months, abortion is prefered, if more, pse seeks doctor's advise
