Question Posted Wednesday December 19 2007, 7:08 pm
Wow well, i really dont know where to start. I am 15 and I have been pregnant once before. Yes i know it was a big mistake. For 8 months after that I didnt have sex. The 8th month, i was a party and got drunk, a man who was over age, prett muc took advantage of me at the party and had sex with me. it is now a month later and i think im pregnant again. I really dont know what to do because i cant tell my mom. She'll be soooooo hurt and i cant do that to her again. SO i was wondering.... I live in the state of NJ and abortion laws here need no consent. So i was going to go to the doctor and ask about one. if I do get an abortion do I need paper work, identification and all that, or since i'm just paying for it I wont? Thats all I really want to know please help. and i dont need any rude comments, trust me i beat myself up enough about it. ....

I don’t think an abortion is the best option, given your age, it might render you infertile. There are so many options to consider, such as an adoption agency? There are plenty of good hearted couples who want children. Please consult with your mother; you need support not a scolding.
As for this man, have you considered pressing charges? If you are indeed pregnant, then you have plenty of evidence for justice to run its course. Your decision to go to that party should not result in you being shamed, what you need the most now is support and counseling.
Best of luck [ Ugo's advice column | Ask Ugo A Question ]

Um, I don't understand why your mom would be upset this time, I mean she obviously knows you had sex in the past. Sex is a strong urge and takes helluva lot a will power to control. Second, have you considered adoption? You could bring joy into someone's life who isn't able to have kids. That's what me and my girlfriend did when we messed up at your age. Third, what happened to this guy? Shouldn't he be in jail or something? In some cases the adopters may even care for you while you go through this. Here's who we went through.

I would imagine that you need to have some sort of information on yourself to give them.
You can't be beating yourself up about it. Why?
Read below:
"If a person has had too much to drink or is on drugs they can not consent to sex and having sex with them is legally rape."
