I did that to my parents.They both reacted tottaly opposite from eachother.My mom was histerycal saying i needed to get an abortion and stuff.My dad on the other hand was so calm.All he said was "we'll deal with it".You know i think the best thing a person can do in this situation is be there for thier kid.Let them know that theyre not alone.I mean my parents didnt take care of my kid.I went out and got a job and took care of her but knowing i had my dad there to support me made the bad situation so much better and easier.Its not right ofr any teenager to have a baby but these things happen.You just have to deal with it.So many teens are killing and dumping thier babies in the garbage cuz they have nobody because thier parents turned thier backs on them.Im 23 now and my daughters 8 yrs old.I think i did a pretty good job with the situation.I have my own place and i take care of my kids.I make sure my daughter goes to school everyday,i pay my bills and live normal.But i dont think id be here int his situation if my father wouldve turned his back on me.I know it gets them angry.I know if my daughter told me she was pregnant when shes 15 id probably go nuts.But in my mind.I would tell her that what she did was wrong but we'll deal with it and im here for her.

I will give my child all the care and support anybody who's pregnant would need. BUT I won't let her and the father of the baby get married. I don't want them to be FORCED into a marriage that they didn't want because of the baby. Besides, at 15, my daughter is too young to know what she really wants. In time, if they want to get married, then they'll have my blessing.

Glad that I don't have a daughter yet... but i shudder thinking that my son would come home one day saying he has impregnated a girl... maybe it would be shocking to hear it just the same!
I think I am equally ready to hear it, should this be going to be uttered. For when I saw my boys growing up... I needed to accept it.. i shall be losing htem one day... and that this early, I should expect the worst, and just hope for the best.
Life is precious. Each one has the right to live. I shall opt to keep the child and let my son continue his studies so that he may have hopes for brighter future for him and his family. :)
