yeaaaa i would go with adoption. if this girl lives with an abusive dad rasing a kid would probably be a lot harder than most other teenaged moms. plus its not like she cant have a healthy realationship with the child once she gets out of college or whatever she plans to do with her life.

then again that fourth option where we just stare at each other is also very tempting. hmmm decisions decisions

@DarkAngelWings101 So a 12 year old who winds up pregnant would be "the best mom out there." Do you think a sixth grader who has never held a baby in her life could suddenly take care of one adequately? Be a mom? She doesn't know how to be a mom. The problem with teen pregnancies are that the family is burdened with taking care of another child because the teen is a child herself. It becomes a problem for more than just the teen mother, Thankfully there is abortion and adoption.

I've already been through this in real life. I chose to become a mother at 15. I'm now 16 and about to graduate high school over a year early. Anyone can do it! It's the most challenging thing I've ever been through in my life, but looking at my son fast asleep right now makes it all worth it :)

[puglit1]

if they had sex then they should have to deal with the baby. why kill a child bcuz your an idiot?

[MrJero85]

The only thing I know is that I as a 15 year old young man is that I could not be a good enough father to my children yet, and I'm most Likly going to have sex befor I'm ready to be a father. So early abortion seems like the best thing under the sitcom stances... And I do not say that easily or with any joy.

[noveditzmee]

I only rated yes because you said what would I do. I would become a mother. As you said in the main video what Jessie does is her own choice, but I personally, would become a mother.

@prevs24 that is the meanest and cruelest thing ur discosting

[ayanneih]

The creepiest thing is that my name is jessica, im 15, i love poetry my first loves name was kevin and my household was that way.. CREEPY! execept im not pregnant

[AnnabellaChase]

On the other hand, I am completly in favor of "ProChoice" and even though I do see a moral issue with abortion, I will not force my beliefs onto others. I believe that abortions should only be available for rape victims. But then there is a chance of another child lost in the adoption system. It really is a gamble, unless pre-marital/long term relationship sex is outlawed. lols

[AnnabellaChase]

I strongly believe that you should go into sex knowing the act is designed to create children, no matter what "protection" you use.If you are not ready for kids you shouldn't be having sex. No child should have to get lost in the system because of their parent's mistakes--they didn't ask to be created.

[neoncrayon69]

So it would be a huge gamble for her even then and would probably be best to abort the child. It's also why I don't fully support adoption. People always use the excuse, 'There are so many people who cannot have children who would love your baby.' Like there is suddenly a shortage of children who need to be adopted. When there are no children who need to be adopted, then I would agree. But most likely, this baby will be in a foster care program where it could so easily go into an abusive home.

[neoncrayon69]

And if she did manage to get out of the abusive situation with her dad, it's still on the fence. I've known many people who have been in the foster care program after being taken from their abusive homes by the CPS. Only three of them had good experiences and were lucky enough to go into first a good group home and a stable foster home and one even became adopted by a lovely family. The rest had awful experiences going into only a different kind of abusive situation.
