Posted: 01-29-05 09:50am

Hey everyone I havent beem on in awhile so I will let you know who I am, my name is ashley and im 19 yrs old and 20 wks pregnant. I have been faced with a delema. My family is making me give my baby up for adoption or they with basically disown me. I want to keep my baby even though the dad lives in rhode island and I live in minnesota. But im afriad to tell them that im keeping it. We have started meeting potential adoptive parents and I just knwo in my heart I dont want to do that. Any advice? I will for sure have to find my own place to live, but I know I wil have child support and im saving every penny I have extra now, so I feel like I can do this but my famil means everything to me and I dont want to loose them... Help!! :( :(

Wow this is a really tough choice...I think you really should follow your heart. If you think you can support this baby and it will have a good home then I think you should keep it. It's wonderful you are considering how everyone else is feeling, but ultimetly this is your choice. You family (even though they may say they won't) will support you, once they see that baby and how much it means to you, if they love you and respect u ( and they must) will be by your side. They just want whats best for you, but no one knows whats best for you better than you. Good luck, let me know how this turns out

If I were you, i'd say fuck you guys and go live with a friend or something with my baby.. If your parents would disown you over a thing like that.. They aren't worth staying in contact with anyway.
