I am 17 and I made a big girl decision but can't live with the big girl consequences. I was engaged to the baby's father (he is 23) for a year until 2 months into the pregnancy when I started figuring out how much of a bum he really is. I am not ready to be a parent nor am I willing to have my parents raise another child. I don't want to be a parent in general, I never have. Babies scare me to be honest. I don't even know what I want to do with my life. I don't have any money because my parents wont allow me to work before or after I have the baby, so no, I don't even have a car. I don't want to be in contact with the father for the rest of my life. I want my baby to have a great life filled with opportunity that I cannot give it because I am not the superwoman you read about in newspaper articles. The father wants to be in the babies life and help raise it but I know he is not capable of doing so because he will not finish college or get a job if his life depended on it.
