[quote=Anonymous]Lots of people on this thread are being coy, but I will say, bluntly, that if my daughter announced she was pregnant at, say, 20 I would move heaven & earth to get her to the nearest abortion clinic. If that required traveling internationally to somewhere that would perform one, so be it & and I would pay for it in full. If she were staunchly opposed to that option, I would let her know the second option would be to put the baby up for adoption, and that I would fully assist her in hiding the pregnancy while she was “on a gap semester from college” or “studying abroad.” But, those would be the two options. I would be 100% clear to her that I am not raising another child and will not be providing any financial support if she chose to keep the child. Because in 90% of these situations, if she keeps the child, the financial, emotional & logistical burden ends up falling entirely on the grandparents for years & years. [/quote]
