I’m 16 years old and I found out I was pregnant and I told my mom about it last Sunday and now she’s asking me questions about my ex boyfriend and if he knows which he does because I told him the day after I told her but he wants no part of it because he has an athletic scholarship and college life ahead of him next year and isn’t ready to take care of a child. I told her this but she still insists on making him take responsibility and she’s talking about telling his parents tomorrow morning in church but I don’t want her to do that. Granted I think he’s kind of a jerk for blowing me off but he has a point, I don’t want him to give up his soccer scholarship for me and I argued back and forward with my mom about this and she took it like I was taking his side but I’m really not you know I’m just understanding where he’s coming from. How do I stop her from telling his parents because I know they will be mad and he will blame me.

UMM you can’t!! You should not have had sex if you were about your boyfriend getting in trouble. You made your bed or should I say unmade your bed and now you both have to lay in it.
This is none of your mom’s business to get your ex to take responsibility. I think you should sit down and talk to her about this (calmly). Tell her that your going to play the mother and father just for the child, and with her help, everything will be fine.
Good luck!!
I hope I helped!
=D
Look you will need help to raise this child. Its his child too. He should be helping you – your Mom is right. Plus his parents have the right to know they are going to Grandparents! He should not have to give up his scholarship – he will simply have to pay some child support( that should not stop him from going to college) while your whole life will change. He will be free to do what he wants to- go to partys, the bar and have fun while you sit home with a crying baby!!
Your mother is right.
Your Mom is right. Unfortunately because you made a very grown up decision without actually being a grown up, you have no control in this situation. Because you are so young, your Mom and his parents will have to pitch in to help you and this young man raise this child. Have you thought about how much it cost to have/raise a baby? Why should all the responsibility be on your Mom? Thats very selfish of you and you need to take your situation VERY seriously right now. You and this young man have created a bad situation and your parents will BOTH need to help you guys.
Regardless of the fact that he may not want anything to do with this baby, he still needs to be financially responsible and that falls unfortunately on his parents as well as your Mom.
Hope you learned your lesson in all of this….Babies are NOT to be had by babies.
Your Mom is not taking his side, really she is taking yours and you just don’t know it yet. If she were taking his side, she’d be telling you to take care of it on your own, and that a child is something that is easy to take care of. IT’S NOT! And you DO NEED the support of the other person. Whether it be emotionally, physically, or financially. YOU NEED IT! I was 16 when I got preg. with my son, 17 when I had him. That was without the support & It was not easy. Just let her tell them because maybe his parents will step up and help you if he won’t. (They will if they want to see his scholarship go though)!
His parents need to know.
If he doesn’t want it fine… but the grand ma and grandpa deserves to know.
well, let me ask you this: who is paying for you to have this baby?
YOU? it can’t be you, you’re 16…
your mom? how unfair is it that she foot the bill for you and your ex boyfriends mistake?
the taxpayers? UGGGH don’t even get me started on this. >:(
it doesn’t matter if he has a scholarship to play soccer. HE KNOCKED YOU UP. he needs to step up to the plate. this is both of yours mistake.
DO NOT let him weasel out of this!
i am 100% with your mom on this one! his parents need to know NOW and he needs to face the cold realities of life- you play, YOU PAY!
