[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. OP, I have a 17yo son who is preternaturally mature and well-grounded, and if he was in this situation I would absolutely insist on therapy. And I would also be concerned about a relationship that involved both sex and some sense of co-dependence at this age. As you describe it, your daughter is emotionally reliant on this boy and caught up with his family too - that's not healthy or normal at 17yo, and even more precarious after something as huge as a pregnancy. One of my friends was like this, and she literally never recovered when the boy dumped her during her senior year.[/quote]

Why would he dump her? What if they grow old together? [/quote]

Yes, perhaps they'll grow old together. But realistically, most 17yos in America today do not marry the person they started dating at 15yo. My friend who was dumped spent her 20s and much of her 30s in disastrous relationships, most of them not even actual relationships, and mourning her HS sweetheart. It was so ridiculously damaging. That won't happen to everyone, but intense HS relationships - especially where a pregnancy is involved - are not especially healthy.[/quote]
