I am in a bad situation. I guess its the typical story. I am 19, a second year college student, and just found out that I am pregnant. I have no idea what to do. I know that I don't want an abortion, yet I don't want to have this baby or even give him/her up for adoption. I can't tell my parents because they will force me to have an abortion, then they will KILL me. I have been advised just to be brave and tell my parents, but I really can't, and if you knew them, you would understand why. I was considering just having the child, but what kind of life could I give it? I an supported 100% by my parents, I don't work, I am a full time students, and I am just not ready to become a mother. I just can't decided what to do, and its driving me crazy. My boyfriend of little over a year, just wants me to have an abortion, but its so hard. I don't know why he thinks that it so easy to make a decision. I have always thought that if I ever became pregnant, I would not have the baby, but now that its actually happened to me, I don't know. I can't live the rest of my life knowing that I killed my baby. I feel like no one around me understands what I am going through, and the only advise some of my close friends seem to be giving me, is to have an abortion. I am torn inside, and I just don't know what to do. I need help!!!
