you should talk to your parents and tell them to support your sister no matter what. tell them that she will be on the streets if they kick her out, because she will have no money or no where to live. what your sister needs at this moment in time are her family, and if they cannot give her support no one will.

You'd need to understand the law in Australia, but I'd imagine since she's still a child and not an adult, they can't kick her out. I'd check out laws and charities that all relate to teenage pregnancy in Australia and see what you can find. I just be there for your sister. She's probably rebellious and gone out and got herself pregnant because she doesn't get much love from her parents.

 Well if she is going to keep the baby like an adult then she needs to deal with it as an adult. not all parents want to be there for their pregnant teenagers. Do your parents know she is pregnant? Sometimes we over react to how we THINK our parents will respond to 'bad situations'. I was pregnant at a young age too and was scared how my parents would take it, I also had a bad/rocky relationship with them, however, they took it quite well and never gave abortion or adoption as an option to me. My daughter is the 1st grandchild to my mother and they have a bond that is stronger than ever. :) As for helping your little sister unless you both have jobs and can afford an apartment together that would be an option, otherwise maybe your state has government aid for young single mothers.

 You sound like a lovely sister :)
I think you, as the elder sister should sit down with your parents (and your younger sister too, as now she is going to have to act like an adult) and have a calm discussion. Hopefully they are just angry and don't mean to throw her out. I don't know anyone who would throw their pregnant underage daughter out onto the streets...
