Re: I'm 17, Pregnant, and I DONT know the Father or Have Contact With My Own Parents. HELP. - April 27th 2010, 08:34 AM

I agree with combatbunny. You really have to consider whether or not you can give this child the best possible life. Now, I have never been pregnant and cannot imagine the pain associated with giving up your baby, but what really it comes down to in the end is the well-being of him or her. Do you think it's fair to have him or her if you cannot truly provide the proper financial support? You may be able to make it work at first, but what if your baby wishes to go to college later in life? He or she won't necessarily make the same decisions about school that you did, and college tends to be expensive. Do you want him or her to have the option to further his or her education?

As combatbunny said, adoption is a possibility. I wish you all the best. This isn't an easy decision to make.
