 My career and my future were going away in one fell swoop. I didn't feel I could turn to my parents, nor to my superiors, who had the highest expectations of me (I was one of the first women integrated into the all-male Army). The pressure was unbearable, and I was in a haze of fear. I remember looking at my male peers and thinking that they literally didn't have to bear the evidence of their deeds that began at the German bars.

 Hi thank you for replying to me quickly and all the help you have given me. I've sat down with my fiance and we talked about the baby, we've sorted things out and now he's happy that he is going to be a dad again. He has been telling his mates at work the lot, my family are getting used to me having another one. The only one that has stuck by me through it was my mum -- she's amazing.

 I read your story, and... I think I'm in the wrong place. You
see I'm suffering from the pain of my own choice. I had a abortion from
a one night stand. Like you, was drunk and I don't even known his last
name. All I know is that he was the father 'cause I don't sleep
around!!
I regret it sooooooo much, living in pain, I have turned it inward into myself.

And i want to know if that is the right way to go. I know I probably sound stupid because I mean no 14 year old in there right mind would want to get pregnant but I do and so does my boyfriend for 1 year and 3 months. I also want o finish school and go to college. I have been planning on how to tell my dad and mother when I do get pregnant but I really want to know if I should and I want to know how much responsibility it will be...

 I was at an end of summer party and everything was okay until I it became a drinking party. I was never into that whole scene and I really wanted to leave. My boyfriend Michael had decided to stay so I just thought I would walk home. When I was about halfway home a car pulled up next to me, and I heard a guy ask me if I need a ride. The voice was a familiar, and was in fact a guy I have known since we were kids, so I went up to the car and leaned into the drivers side window. When I saw him he looked obviously drunk so I refused the ride and continued walking. He got out of the car and told me to come with him. At that point I was getting nervous so I started to run

 Dear Becky - I am a 15 year old girl and I am pregnant. My aunts and granny and some of my mom friends want me to keep the baby. My dad and brother said no. I don't know what I want to do. I need some help on what to do. I want to finish high school and go to college. I don't think I can do the baby thing. Please help.
Hey DeDe, My name is Rachel and I work with Becky at Stand Up Girl. I can relate to your situation SO much. I got pregnant when I was 16 and was so confused.

 Hello Becky. My name is Breanne, I'm 18 years old, a freshman in college, and just lucky to be here right now. When I was 16, and a junior in high school, I met one of the most perfect guys I could have ever asked for. He was caring, sensitive, and always tried to make me happy. One day -- we started dating and things were turning out great. We moved a lot quicker then I thought we did but I didn't care because my friends were already having sex so I figured there would be no difference in me doing it.

My Boyfriend Decided to Break It Off |
|
Written by Taryn
|
 I was at a point in my life where I was not close to my family at all.
I worked as a server at a restaurant and my co-workers were my family.
I had been in a serious relationship for about 4 months when my
boyfriend decided to break it off suddenly, leaving me devastated. At
that same time, my male best friend had a falling out with his fiance
and they called everything off. Since we were both dealing with the
same thing we became even closer and began seeing each other.

 Dear Becky, I found out I was pregnant when I was 17. I was a Senior in high school. When I first found out I was with some friends and my boyfriend. We had been together already for three years. Anyway, when I found out, I thought my world was over. I sat and cried on my best friend's shoulder for about an hour. |

Returned to School Because I Was Pregnant |
|
Written by Kristal
|
 My boyfriend went out of the room to get coffee and the doctor come in and shut the door and told me that I was pregnant. I was speechless. I did not know what to think. We had only been together a couple of months and I was pregnant. I thought for sure he was going to leave and I was never going to see him again and the baby wasn't either. I knew I was keeping it either way. The baby was a part of me and it was mine.
I told him when we got in the parking lot and I started walking away and he said Kristal stop. And I said, what? |
