I think you should be concerned with the Human life inside you...I understand youre only a teen and this was not your fault...However, worry about the child and think about you last!

I wonder how you would feel if you were the product of rape and your mother only cared about what boys might think or will she ever date instead of caring for your life.....Just a thought!

I understand what your going through. I was 18 when my daughter was born a month after I finished high school. When I got pregnant, I went to a snobby college-prep high school, and when it became obvious that I was pregnant the other students began treating me very badly. The guidance counselor and vice-principal got together and decided it would be better for me to go to another school, so I transfered to another school half way through my senior year. I did better there, as the other students were alot more open minded about my situation. The only bad thing was that school had different graduation requirements then the other, and they told me two weeks before school was out that I didn't have enough credits to graduate. If I wanted to wait until the next year, I could finish my credits and graduate then. I wanted to be done as soon as possible so that I could start college cla__ses, so I had to settle for a GED diploma and a community colege for my education. I'm very glad I did,though, I've been a nurse for 10 years, and my daughter is twelve now. Raising her alone while working and going to college was very hard, but it was the best thing I ever did for myself. The only thing I regret was letting that school make me feel so unwelcome and out of place. If I had stood my ground and refused to switch schools just to make them feel more comfortable, I could have graduated with my cla__s(which I deserved, as I did finish all four years of high school.) The worst part was finding out later on that there were three other girls in my graduating cla__s that were pregnant as well, but because their parents had money and influence, no one said a word to them about switching schools. Just stand firm about your rights and do the best thing for yourself and your baby, things will turn out OK in the end!!

My mother gave me up for adoption when she was still in high school. I met her last year and she said that it was really hard being pregnant in high school but once she left it was all behind her. She was able to move on. After high school people grow up and have their own issues to deal with so when you run into these people again after high school things will probably be different. If a guy doesn't want to be with you because of what they heard and they can't deal with it then who needs a guy like that anyways. It's not like you were sleeping around, you were a victim and you made a very mature decision to have this baby and give it a chance at life. Most girls your age probably would of gotten an abortion . I think you are very brave. Don't feel bad about giving your daughter up for adoption, try to feel good about it. You get a second chance at making a life for yourself and your making someone out there very happy by giving them your child. She will probably have a great life and you will too. It's gonna be ok :)

some of you need to be more sympathetic. she obviously is concerned about her baby, otherwise she wouldn't have carried it for 9mons. she was raped for Christs sake! her high school life was ruined by no fault of her own, and she has every right to worry about how this will effect the rest of HER life. Mommy Dear, i really don't think think people will look down on you in college. everyone will have so much going on w/ their own lives, i doubt they'll be too concerned about your past. plus, people mature alot in those years and they should become more understanding. as far as your future relationships, this is a painful part of your past and you don't have to tell people right away. if a man really cares about you, he won't hold this against you. good luck !

I think u should keep the baby, and don't worry about what other people think, they are not in your position to know what it feels like, therefore they shouldn't say anything.
