My boyfriend doesnt want the kid im going to have...help?

Question

Im 16 and he is 17 going on 18. I want this child with all my heart, i knew what i was getting myself into and i have to pay for my responsibilities. The easy way out would be to get an abortion (which im EXTREMELY AGAINST)

or to put itup for adoption. He doesn't want our kid...what do I? do?

Answer 1

My mom raised me all by herself! You can too!

I'm sure once the baby is born he will feel differently.

Good Luck

Answer 2

keep that child and its good you are against abortion because that will always be on your conscience and even if your parents are upset now when that child is born they will love it, and that is the best support you could ever get.

Answer 3

Raise your baby! Thats what youre saying you want to do. So do it. I'm a 22 year old single mother. It's hard, but it's doable. And even if he doesn't want that baby, he's legally responsible for child support. If he doesn't cooperate, take him to court. There are so many other programs out there for you as well. Call your local wic office and sign up. They can start you out in the right direction for more help. Good Luck!

Answer 4

Be prepared to give up your fun and be a mom.  Stay OFF public assistance.  I am a taxpayer and I don't want to pay for your mistakes.  Drop out of school and get a full time job.  raising a child yourself is going to be expensive and time consuming.  Good luck.

Answer 5

He doesn't have to want the baby or like the baby. The baby is coming either way. Keep your baby and bring baby up with all of the love in your heart. Your boyfriend will either come around or he can leave and just pay child support. Either way, you and baby will make it.,

Answer 6

go raise the baby with the help of family and friend and leave him and file for child support dont let him make you do what you dont want to do

Answer 7

I was 17 when I got pregnant with my first and I raised her alone for the first 5 years! It is no matter if he wants to be involved, you do not need him to survive and I am sure that you can find a better man someday. One who will raise that child ith you though it is not his, there are plenty of men that do that.

Enlist the help of family and friends and you finish school and get a good job to support your family. It is better that way. Do not kill it just because he says to, listen to your heart, it is always right.

Answer 8

Do the best  you can with what you have. Dont be afraid to ask for asistance from anyone willing to help. (dont use or milk people though) Government assistance is  there for you. (even if people criticize you for using it) If you are against abortion then dont feel forced to get one. It will be a HARD road ahead of you but assuming you have the support of friends and family you will be ok. As far as your bf goes, well,  your baby will be better off with both parents even if you arent together. Hopefully he will come around. If he never does, then baby will be ok with just a loving mom and one day a step dad I am sure. Go after him for child support either way. He owes it. No matter how much he doesnt want the baby the responsibility is still his. You can do it. There are lots of resources out there to help. Keep looking til you find everything you need.
