WWYD?? Teen pregnancy.

Stemming from another thread.

If your 16 year old came home and said "I am pregnant, I planned it and I am keeping it. Will you help me? "

"You are a dumbass. Of course I'll help you."

But she would be doing plenty of the work.

Any mother who says "I'm not raising my grandkids" should have aborted when she found out she was having a girl... when you get pregnant, you know that there is a chance your daughter will be a pregnant teen.

I would say you're an idiot. Ok. Of course I'll help you, but you might not always like my help.

I deff would be less likely to help support them than if it was an accident... I'd also seriously be questioning my parenting and my relationship with my child...

I'd be extremely disappointed.. but at that point, what else is there to do BUT be there?

Um ... wow. But yes of course i would help my child, even though i would want to throttle her.

I'd take her ass to get a job. I'd ask who the father was and if he planned on helping her out. She would work and go to school until she had the baby. After the baby was born she would still go to school and work if need be.

I'd do the same thing.

Yes, I would help her.
Just because she made not so good decisions, doesn't mean I should hinder the health of my grandchild.

Though that would never happen, because I will NEVER have girls.  

I would be very disappointed and sad but I would get over it and support her every step of the way!

So if she was just a dumbass and didn't use protection you'd of been a better mom??


Your kid is pregnant, she is unable to care for herself, she needs help.

Yes I would help my dumbass inconsiderate child however I could....

I already said what I would do in that thread.

Either you need to abort, let someone else raise you and your child because she sure in hell won't be forcing me into taking care of something she did to herself.

I would also look back on my own parenting skills because if my daughter's only goal was to get knocked up at a young age and also be engaged, I would be thinking I did a horrible job of instilling respect and common sense into her.
