How old is she? Can she handle a baby? Is she working? In school? Graduated? Will the dad stick around?

all you can do is be supportive. Go with her when she gets the test, give her pep talks, you and your gf (her sis) be there for her. Now are you sure there is not more to this story? You were quick to say "i'm not the father"!! I'm not accusing, just asking! Sometimes things are incinuated by what is written. :o) is she sure she is pregnant? Will her bf support her? Either way she will need her family the most. And tell her if her bf does not stick around, she can do it herself. And tell her to jump on in here. Everyone here is great, non-judgemental and willing and happy to answer all her questions, and support her as well.

Good luck you all of you. Support her!!!!

Ok yea im quick to say im not the fatehr just to make sure we all have the story straight I didnt mean for it to sound jerry springer,,, but yea her boyfriend of only like 2 months tops not even says hed be happy and he would stick around but I dont think he gets it.... Hes the father and well yea... She went to the hosptial last night and they said its too soon to tell but we pretty sure and well her parents = very religious not even joking she would be disowned by her family I cant believe it cos I myself not religios at all still dont eblieve in premarital sex thats only for myself I dont concern myself with the actions of others but her family is insanly strickt about that. Dont worry about sounding accusive if thats a word... I understand I only said that just so u know the story... All that happened was simple case of broken condom.... Ack this is no good!

What the hell is an 18 year old doing with a seventh grader anyways I dont care how cruel this sounds but if she does keep that baby she needs to think realistically and give him/her up for adoption

When I was in 7 grade there was this one guy hwo was like 17 and he was in the 8 grade. I dont think he had any friends just for the simple fact that he was 17 in the 8 grade.

Hahaa...This has to be the most confusing topic yet!! Lol...I see what he's saying. When I was in the 8th grade there was a 17 year old in my class. I guess you can come back to school at any age under 18. At my senior high school there was a 22 year old graduate. He wasn't the smartest of the bunch but he put forth the effort...........................Dependabl e on a child's life? I dunno...All I can say is see how he acts when the parents get involved...If he stays by her side...He's a good man..If not, than adoption might be the best idea. Reguardless of his actions everyone needs to be 120 percent supportive of her and her decision.
