[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." 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. 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]
