I got some big news today...

Well, apparently Duckie's pregnant...Anyone want to help? I'm freaking out. I don't have a job, and I don't know how to help the girl...Anyone have any idea what I should do?

1. Consider parental counseling

Planned Parenthood should be able to put you in contact with one...

2. It's your decision, and you should feel free to have it or not have it

depending on your personal situation. An anonymous posting board probably is not the best place to get advice, though.

3. The only thing you can do, bud....

Get your shit together! Yer in for the ride of yer life!

But seriously, you need to get together and talk openly about your situation. Jobs can be gotten. What's really important is your commitment to one another and to the child. It's not a part-time thing. It's full time for the rest of your life. If you're ready for that kind of commitment, then congrats to all of you. If not, it's time to consider some other options....

P.S. I think that HEFFA is a very flattering name for a young boy.
:P

4. You guys are students, right?

The student health center should be able to help (unless you go to a very conservative college -- in that case, Planned Parenthood should work).

:hug:

Just be there for her -- I've thankfully never had a pregnancy scare but if I had, that's what I'd need.
