[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Father lives 1200 miles away? Yikes. [b]She's awfully young to be dealing with split custody and such. [/b]Or is she planning not to tell him?

I know you respect her choice, and you're doing it better than I would. I would probably ask her why she's set against abortion in this case, and point out how complicated this is likely to be. She now knows she's fertile. She can get pregnant at literally any future moment.

This kind of thing makes me sad about how effective the pro-life propaganda has been on women under 30. Even pro-choice women think of a 5-week-old pregnancy as a child.[/quote]

But she's not too young to be having sex?  Got it.[/quote]

Huh? Clearly this particular woman is, because she isn't prepared to make a mature decision (which to me would be not having this baby -- I take it to you it would be to keep the baby).[/quote]

To me, it would be to give the baby up for adoption and give it a decent chance at an intact family.[/quote]

Not necessarily.  Several families we adopted with are divorced (kids all elementary school age) and some of the families don't treat the kids like they do their biological kids.[/quote]
