If your teenage daughter became pregnant and wanted to keep the baby how much would you help her?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:They’d both be my own children. So anything I can provide. If she’s in her teens, she’s gotten most of the lessons I’m going to teach already. I’m not going to turn the most stressful time of her (very young) life into another lesson on how hard the world can be. If I’ve taught her right, she’ll do everything she can. If not, that’s not the baby’s fault.
