Pregnant...but in college...hum!...~*~

I think getting pregant in college seldom happens in this present time...
People now take more precautions and are literate about this, but what for instance your precautions fail and you end up getting an unwanted pregnancy??
You're still in college, still a teenager, your boyfriend is still in college and stays with his parents and has no money or incapable of raising a family.....is there an option
well maybe.....abortion...but that seems dangerous...
A friend of mine is in such a state...i dont want her to have a baby now, and i dont want her to have an abortion...what should she do??

    This is a touchy subject. A conclusion no one can decide but the person whom is pregnant. She should have the baby, carry it full term, have it, take care of it !!! There is assistance she can get for being a un-wed mother. I look at it like this..... if she was capable of having sex.....she should be capable of accepting what came out of it. It was their mistake, they should have been catious..... now be ADULTS who are in COLLEGE and take care of this baby the RIGHT way. Its not the babies mistake. Abortions to me are horriable, there are so many families who cant have children, and then there are people like your friend, who gets pregnant and wants to abort it. Thats a poor excuse for a human being to me. Or the other A word, Adoption, give the baby to someone who will take good care of it, provide better for it, give it a nice structured home.

    You asked what I thought......there ya go :)

    This is a touchy subject, Im not being rude to you, Im stating how I feel about it. You can disagree with me thats fine, thats what makes us Americans. Have a great day !

    Thanks a whole lot Heather...actually i'mma Nigerian....but as you said erlier 'ts really a toucchy subject..

    although 'ts wise enough to have the baby, but that'll affect most things in her life especially her educational career althoug i also share your opinion 'bout they should be old enough to takia o' a babe if they're old enough to have sex....but lets focous on our present day society...how many young pips do you know who havnt had a form of sex or the other...

    The point is that mistakes are made and there should be a way of correcting it....

    Thanks for the comment though ;-)

    Wow, that is a hard choise, and unfortuantly you can't have both. Having a child is expensive, even just carring the baby for nine months, costs alot of money.

    But also an Abortion can cause emotional scars a young women isn't ready for. Either way, she is in a very hard and challenging point in her life.

    She needs to take some time for herself and thinkg about the future. Would having a child hinder her career and ability to bring home enough money to sustain them both? What about the father? Is he going to be around, or is the child going to live in two homes...Is she going to drop out of college? Where is she going to live? How is she going to pay the bills when she is on materinty leave? Who is going to watch the child for the next 7 years of its life (untill the child goes to school)

    Never mind what OTHER people think..she needs to look within herself and make the best choice for HER...because in the end...it's still her life (yes, even with a kid its her life...she has to come first because with out the basic needs a human has to have...a human can not function)

    Don't tell her she has to have an abortion, or she has to keep it...tell her that you will support her in every way possible and that no matter her choice..you will be there for her...thats a true friend...
