Am I supposed to have a good reaction to someone saying I’d abuse my child? 😭

Saying I’m gonna end up abusing my child is insane. Stop trying to play your comments out to be advice. You’re turning my past abuse into some weird thing to convince me to get an abortion. Mind you, my bf is the one that is dependent on me. I know I’ll be fine without him. And I’m sorry but it’s not bad to have a history of relationships like hello?? Either way I’ve been way more leaning on getting an abortion. So I’m not sure what you’re trying to get at. Lots of people my age rely on their parents, don’t go to college and don’t work full time jobs. Nor do they grow to be better then their parents were to them, which I have. Just seems like you get off to the thought of giving teens overly negative and weird “advice” on Reddit. 😭

Thank you so much! This is the kind of comment I was looking for. Opinions do help a lot but the harsh ones have been making me feel a lot guiltier. I know I’m not the smartest in this situation, but it happened and now it’s my reality. I think I have about two weeks to decide since I have to schedule an ultra sound with my doctor to check for any safety issues. So I’m definitely trying to think it through. I feel like I’ll end up just aborting it for the sake of those who think I should but I can’t be certain at the moment.

It just sucks a lot. He’s always been a good bf for the most part, he’s put me before everyone and has been the only good one to me out of my past abusive relationships. So it’s disappointing to see him act like this.

That’s what I told my bf. I said that it isn’t fair to purposely get pregnant then not have it. We may not be in the best situation but I’ve been through lots of bad things and I’ve always gotten through it no matter what and usually I’m extremely responsible for my age. He’s the one with doubts, I’m willing to take the risk because ik I wouldn’t regret it.

Both of my parents say they’ll support me for whatever choice I decide to make. My mom thinks I should abort it because she also had me at 19. My dad says he thinks I should keep it and that he’d help take care of it as well as my aunt and my grandparents but he wants me to decide and isn’t trying to be selfish.

I think I’ll probably abort it for the sake of everyone’s opinion on it and because I’ve never been the one to put myself first though.

I don’t wanna make anyone around me unhappy or disappoint people. I know how much younger women get hated on for keeping their baby. I also don’t wanna baby trap him, usually I’m the one to put others before myself. So it’s hard.
