[quote=Anonymous]I have daughters, so I'm sure my response will be different, but I would absolutely never cut them off at a time like this. I would absolutely encourage abortion and/or adoption, but if it was too late or she decided to keep the baby, then I would embrace my role as grandmom AND mom. This poor 18 year old girl is adopted - adoptees often have very conflicting feelings about motherhood and can rush to have kids as a way to cope with their feelings of being abandoned and not having biological family. If the adoptive parents dropped her like a hot potato, then I assume they have been awful in other ways and she's likely not shocked. She's trying to build her own safe little family. Not to say there wouldn't be expectations - there absolutely would. But my love is stronger than any "rule" or timeline one is supposed to follow in life. I think you're being a shitty parent by thinking the way you are. [/quote]
