Parental Rights & Teen Pregnancy: Understanding Your Options

Question
im 17 and dont want an abortion can my mom make me?

Answer
Hi Lashaun,
the short answer is NO.
BUT perhaps your mother is wiser than you and sees better what difficulties can better be postponed a couple of years, Are you ready to have a baby ?
Time ? Enough education ? A BF ?  enough money ? To have  a baby looks great but its not a doll. You have to be ready for it and prepare for sleepless nights, Less attention from other boys.Less chance to get a wellpayed job - if any.
No more parties, ALWAYS be there for the baby.
Can you do that ?
I hope so.
succes, Dr Shan
