First off, it is "taken" away, but no, I have never heard of such thing.

Okay, i'll explain this to you.

When you're the age of 11-15 and you have a baby in a hospital. It's your nurses job to call family services. Not to snitch on you, but because it's needed, it's what they have to do. You might get your baby taken away, social services will come to your house and question you about how old your boyfriend is,what his name is, and they'll probably ask you're mom why you're having sex and having a baby so young.

That's how it is in my city anyways.

If your baby's dad is above age, like if it's illegal, and when they ask for your boyfriends name, give them a fake one so he won't go to jail.

Every baby that I deliver from a minor, whether they are 13,14,15,16,or 17 has to be seen by a case worker from social services. This doesn't mean your baby will be taken away nor does it mean they are trying to invade your privacy, the only reason they are there is to find out your living situations and financial means.They have helped a lot of young ladies get approved for wic or food stamps.
