Pregnet Friend


Question Posted Tuesday April 19 2005, 9:01 pm

my best friend is pregnet. i dont know what to do. i know she wants to keep it but she hasnt even told her boyfriend and she wasnt going to tell me but i found the strip in her room. I'm afraid that she wont be able to handle it and that her parents will be mad if they find out I've known this girl since i was 7 and were 14 now and she is so young that her parents would probly just kick her out. i dont want this to happen to her and i dont know if i should tell anyone she's not ready to have a baby at all and she cant get enough courige to go tell somebody about it so now im realy worried about what will happen if she doesnt tell. should i just go ahead and tell ppl and make things easy or should i just let her do it her way?

if she doesn't have the courage to tell someone that she's pregnant then she shouldn't be having a baby, 14 is WAY to young to be a parent, all it is, is babys having babys, talk to her tell her you don't think she'sready and this might get her mad atyou but inthe long run it will help her not to ruin her life, tell her that if she doesn't tell anyone then you will it's your job as her best friend to look out for her best interests and it sounds to me like you've only got her best interests in mind. but someone else like a trusted adult needs to know

I really don't think her parents will kick her out. She will tell soon, she'll have to explain her sudden weight gain somehow.

NO do not go ahead and tell people. This is her problem not yours. She will deal with it in her own time. I know you want to help, and there will be plenty of time for that. Let her get used to the idea first herself. :)

You shouldn't tell people about what's happened to her. Let her tell people on her own, its the only way.If you do it would probably just turn into a huge mess and then it would go around school and she would get really mad at you. I know you really want to help, but all you can do right now is to be supportive of her and help her in anyway you can.
I hope I helped!

let her tell everyone but she should because she cant hide if forever! they will find out sooner or later but she wont trust you if you tell everyone. how many tests did she take? sometimes they are not accurate so make sure she is before she tells anyone or it will make her look bad. if her parents kick her out, im sure there are support groups for pregnant teens that will help her through it and give her options.<3

well i think you should try talking your friend into telling her boyfrined and family because this is an important matter and her paretns cant kick her out because she is not 18 and that will be ilegall and since she is only 14 she should talk about whether she would be an abortion or not with her family and then her boyfriend

hope i helped

please rate

Ok well first her parents cant kick her out it would be against the law b/c she isnt 18 or older... honestly i think you should talk to her about this and convince her to tell her parents and her b/f and after trying to convince her she still refuses then tell her parents for her b/c she really needs to talk to her parents about this..... hope everything works out

At her age, you think you can cope with a baby etc. You have to let her know that by having a baby it will disrupt her school work, finding a job and meeting guys. It will mean she won't be able to go out with you guys because she will have to be at home looking after her baby.
You can call someone who will give you advice. You can also get these dolls which they lend you from a hospital. They are just like babies and you have to look after them for 48 hours and see how you cope. They will behave just like a normal new born baby and cry and wake her up all night. Most people who have tried this realise they are not fit to go ahead with the pregnancy at their age.
Ask her how she will be able to look after the baby and get a job with no qualifications as well as no time to work in that job because she'll be having to look after the baby all the time. Good luck

Its her decision if she wasnts to tell ppl. if she wants to tell her friends and family she can. they will find out one way or another. its her life and she needs to learn from her mistakes. in the meantime just be there for her if she needs you.

tell her boyfriend and parents so that they wont getthat mad. tell her parents don't get mad at her just talk to her and don't get frustrated when she walks through the door. tell them she probably wanted to see how it was to have sex like adults. her condom probably broke. tell her boyfriend the same thing. hoped i helped. if your friend gets mad at you she not a true friend because friends help friends solve problems to make them easier. she should understand because if you don't tell them their family can fall apart and can be really be mad.

clotito answered Tuesday April 19 2005, 10:30 pm:
I would presume that someone else knows already and take a chance on telling a school counselor. That way, the school counselor can tell your friend's parents and she can get help and if confronted you can outright lie and say you didn't say anything if you want. Not the most ethical solution perhaps, but utilitarianism doesn't have to be.
