My brother or my friend?
I'm 17/f. My brother is dating a really close friend of mine. She told me in confidence that she's pregnant by my brother, but she took the abortion pill yesterday. She's not going to tell my bro anything about it. I know my brother is really, really against abortion, and I also am, but not as much as he is. I'm really torn by what she told me-like part of me wants to stand by her as my friend, and part of me wants to beat the crap out of her for killing my niece or nephew. If I told him in time, could anything be done to save the baby? Should I hold my friends statement in confidence when it's something this huge?

Someone I know just did the same thing except she told her boyfriend about it. I never knew there was an abortion pill until she told me she took it.
Once the pill has been taken, there is nothing that can be done. The baby will die and there is no stopping it.
I'm pretty sure that the law is on her side. I don't think the guys in the relationship have any say (which sucks, I know), but because it's her body, it's her decision.
Whether or not you tell your brother is up to you.
If you tell him, your friendship with her probably won't last, the two of them will probably break up, etc.
If you think telling him this is more important than your friendship with her, then do it. It's really just a risk you have to take.
Or you can give her the ultimatum. You can tell her that you really think he needs to know and if she doesn't tell him, you will...
You have a few options - each of them with a crappy outcome and a good outcome.
Honestly, I don't know what I would do in this situation. It's a really tough one.
It is against the rules of this site for you to ask a question to more than one user, but because you aren't registered (or just aren't logged in), I suggest going to the columnist razhie and/or younggrandma and asking them. They are both older than I am and they can probably help you a lot more with this than I can.
