That's right.

How would you react?
Would you keep it? Why or why not? How would you get rid of or keep it?
How would you feel about it?
Think about the emotional and financial implications.
What effect do you think it'd have on your partner?
 
I'd be a bit anxious about it, wouldn't be mad or anything.
I'd discuss it with them and make a joint decision based on what we think's best. I've got no idea at the moment as I've never really had to think about it.
Same as first.
Ok? :P
I'm not sure at all to be honest. Probably cause unwanted stress.
 
See, I know a caring male partner then they'd obviously be worried, like you would be and Kirk would me etc and I'm sure all the men on this forum would be just as concerned but...being the woman I think there's an element of panic. Knowing that I was as of then pregnant right then I would be very panicky and worried. Honestly, I'd cry a lot and be really quite upset.
It's not that I don't want kids, I know me and Kirk would be decent parents at least, but I'm only 17 and whilst I feel I'm old enough and responsible enough to have sex, I am not ready to bring up a child and that fact shouldn't hinder my sex life.
I also have a severe fear of childbirth at a young age...

I really think that at this stage I'd probably end up getting an abortion. It would be a painful and heartbreaking experience but I think I'd have to get past it and look forward. I want to go to uni, I want to get a stable career, I want to move in with my boyfriend. None of this could happen smoothly with a baby and I think that a long distance couple with barely any plans or money should really be parents at this stage.
I think Kirk would be heartbroken over it knowing the first time we got pregnant is the time I wouldn't keep the baby. It would hurt a lot but it's something we feel we'd need to do.

Emotionally in terms of our relationship we're very stable though so I'm pretty sure that we'd stick it out together :)
 
Abort. Neither of us ever want children, and even if we did keeping one would be the irresponsible thing to do right now, in my mind. The kid would be growing up with parents who aren't out of high school quite yet, don't have jobs, don't have the means to support it.
 
I'd panic. I'd probably be an emotional wreck for quite a while.
I'd talk it over with Michael and we'd figure out what we wanted to do, but if the decision was purely on my shoulders, I'd choose to abort.
I don't think we're mentally/emotionally/financially ready for a kid, and childbirth actually sounds pretty terrifying if I'm honest.
I'd only feel right bringing a child into the world when I know we can provide the best life and support possible for it.
 
i would talk to the only person who could possible be the father, but we both know that i would abort.
i'm in no situation to handle having a kid and i'm very careful about taking the proper precautions.
 
I'd love it and my g/f and I would certainly keep the child. It would be unplanned, but none-the-less a blessing.

I do know somebody who used the pill and condoms and still got pregnant :)

Same here. She also got the implant but was already a month or so pregnant and didn't realise, but she kept the baby and is now very happy with him. It did mean that she had to compromise her A2 exams and hasn't gone to uni yet (she's really intelligent), but she's going to do a course at Bristol next year and stay at home so it's not too bad.

Don't have a partner myself but I honestly don't know what I would do really; I think it's one of those things where it has to happen in order for you to make a judgement.
 
I'd probably be more worried than she would be..
I guess I'd just talk about it with her and see what she wants to do. If the option was mine, I'd probably choose for her to abort it, but the decision definitely isn't just mine and I'd stick with her through whatever she chose to do.
I definitely don't think that we're in a position to have a child right now and I'd put my opinion across. There's only so much I could do because ultimately, it's her choice.
