[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anything to encourage the girl to give the baby up for adoption would be a good idea. No teen is emotionally or financially prepared -- or ultimately mature enough -- to have a baby. College in the future? MAYBE - if she can live with her parents and they agree to do a LOT. College fun? Doubtful.

I realize OP isn't the mother of the girl, but again, just think about how hard it was when your own kid/kids were newborns. I'm assuming you were married at the time and had the support of your husband. And that you weren't a teenager. And if any of these assumptions aren't true, then you have the life experience to say "babies aren't always a bed of roses."

[b]Many childless couples who can't conceive would be so thrilled just to be able to speak to the girl about the possibility of adopting the baby.[/b]

Honestly, I think it is the best thing for all parties. Sure, they will always love that baby, and always think of her, 
but they will be giving the baby the best gift - (adoptive) parents who are ready to become parents. [/quote]

If this were my daughter, [b]I would rather she have an abortion than have a child and give it up for adoption.[/b]   This is a cruel thing to do to the girl and the boy.  They had sex and a baby was the consequence and, with the help and support of both sets of parents, they will mature and learn to handle their situaion.  Thank god, in this day and age, a girl does not have to give her baby up for adoption.  Who are you or anyone else to say these parents aren't the best for their child.  [/quote]

I agree with this.  I would much rather have an abortion than to go through pregnancy and childbirth only to give the baby up myself, and if the girl strongly wishes to keep the baby, I would never "make" her give it up.[/quote]
