i have found out i am pregnant. it is from the rape.

id love to be a mother, but just not from this way or with his child.

i dont know how i really feel about abortion. i mean it might be best, but at the same time i dont know. i mean id feel weird if i were to keep the baby and knowing all its life it was from him...i mean someone 20 years older then me and not even by my choice.

im just so confused and scared

Hey,
Honey, you need to confide in someone, a friend, a doctor, a teacher, your mom..anyone. This guy has committed a crime. You have to think about whats best for you and you need to seriously talk it through with someone. My friends dad raped her mom and its a very hard thing for her to deal with. I def think u need to get help and seriously think about contacting authorities about the guy. Goodluck. xxx

I completly agree with whamfan1986. If you feel that you are not comfortable with having this child from this circumstance, then I don't think you should go through with it. Have a child with someone you love, it would be a lot easier. Also consider the child itself; would they be able to really have a relationship with the father under these circumstances? Besides, you are 14 years old; you have you're whole life ahead of you, and having a child this young can interupt school and friends and things that you need to do when you are a teenager. I would certainly contact the authorities about this sicko... you'd probably be helping others too so that this does not happen to someone else. Talk to someone you trust. Stay strong.

When I was your age I was raped by a much older guy. And I too ended up pregnant.
I know exactly how you feel right now. I didn't want to have the baby I was carrying either. I talked to my friends older sister, she wanted a baby really bad but she couldnt have kids, so we talked and I had decided I would give it to her because I could not bare the thought of killing something that was growing inside of me...even if I didn't want it there. I don't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing...but I lost the baby. Yes, I felt grief for the loss but for some reason I was also relieved. I told someone about what he did to me though and he went to jail, not for a long period of time but he had to register as a sex offender and that has messed up his life a great deal, and frankly he deserves it. Please, feel free to message me and talk to me about it more, I know what you are going through and I want to help as much as I can.

You just definitely need to confide in your mom or dad, it may be hard, but it was rape, and thats a horrific crime, i'm not for abortion, but if thats what you have to do then do it, my sister got pregnant at 17, and she aborted it, it leaves you feeling sad, but you get over it, she is now pregnant again and keeping it, but this is a rape child, I think the child deserves a life, you should think about adoption, maybe? or keeping it, it's all up to you, i'm 15 right now, and I couldn't imagine going through what you are. Stay Strong, bb.

I think a good option for you would be contacting the authorities with this guy. If you dont feel right about having an abortion, then maybe you could go through with adoption... My best friends mother was 15 when she had her (did an adoption) and she is still in contact with her... They send pictures back and forth, they visit, they shop sometimes... that is an open adoption... She was very young and didn't want the responsibility of having a child but really couldnt bare to never see her again, her daughter would have a better life with her now parents, yet knew where she came from... not forever wondering who her parents were

I think you should have an abortion. Why would you want to carry out this guys child? You have your whole life to have a baby and why do it when your 14. I am 14 myself and could never imagine having some baby from a guy who raped me.

Only YOU can decide which option is best for you. Be it adoption, abortion or even parenting.
