Teenage pregnancy

user1486156070 · 2017-02-03 21:24:08

Im 17 and found out a while ago that my girlfriend is pregnant and due in June. I have no idea what to do. Im in year 13 at sixth form and im pretty screwed. I dont even live with her (I live with friends). What I need to know is what the hell to do. theres loads of articles and stuff online about teenage motherhood but literally noting about teenage fatherhood. Like im not surprised teenage dads dont stick around with how little help they get. How do I raise a kid? Am I supposed to go to uni like I've been planning? Do I need a full time job instead? My parents have said arent going to be involved as we've never really had a good relationship. I don't want to leave her but I also want to get on with my life. I suggested abortion when I first found out but she started screaming at me that it was murder. She also screamed when I said adoption so thats not a route. So now Ill have to look after a baby and I don't have a clue how to. Any advice? Jace
