you can get a job at 15. I had one. You just need a work permit thing.

I'm all on her (original poster) side in this. She offered to take care of this situation but her parents intervened. They are forcing her to have this baby, so the responsibility is totally on them as far as I'm concerned.

yet they intended adoption? she should still be responsible for her child? and her actions?

i agree with that...

at 15 you can geta job with a permit in SOME states not all states
and how wouldshe work and have money for daycare and stuff

well i know at my school at least, they have classes special for teen mothers so you can take your baby with you or there is a day care right there so you don't have to be with a class like that.

She took responsibility and so did her bf. They both agreed to abort the pregnancy. That is taking responsibility.

yeah not alot of schools are like that though. i know we have a few schools like that here. but not many

yeah.. The only school around here that does that is mine... but even though we have that my mom is still going to watch him while I go back to school because of the crappy michigan weather.

have you considered homeschooling? i do it now and i LOVE it

I have and I really want to but my mom and step dad just don't have the money to pay for it right now. But if my step dad gets this job and actually takes it (he works at plants so he doesn't have a constant job and travels a lot) I will talk to my mom about it again..

Suzy, how does your homeschooling work? Who teaches you guys?

Me
its called continental academy and its wondeful! they send you the text and dvd lessons and t hen a work book to accomodate the lesssons and you do it on your own time at your own pace
so you can do whatever you want and get the credit in however much time you need. its a wonderful program and i love it

princess continantalis only 40 bucks a month too! and its a HIGH SCHOOL diploma NOT a GED

really? That's awesome! I'll so look into that. Heck. If I get a job I could pay for it on my own.

Suzie, ur getting ur high school diploma through homeschooling? Way to be proactive. Good job!

thanks!
