Hi

You are only sixteen i agree, and i can only give you my personal opinion ... you have fallen pregnant for a second time. You have the support of your boyfriend obviously...and do remember he has a say and it is also HIS child . Really nobody can answer this for you....

If you decide to keep your baby

Ask mum for support and your brother(uncle) and become responsible for the role you may be taking ... if you are going to be a mother you have not to fear what ANYONE thinks...you have a life growing inside you and you are responsible for it.

I believe the most special/important job in the world is been a good loving parent anything else comes second place to this responsibility.

I wish you well and agree with(anon) There is Hope! what a nice name :)

Please please keep your baby! Face the fact you pregnant together with your boyfriend. Go and tell your Mother and ask for help and guidance.

I fell pregnant on purpose when I was 15 and it was tough but I have a 28 year old daughter who brings me incredible happiness to this day.

There is hope... :)
