Pregnancy & Birth Control
I got a 25 year old pregnant
TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
I got a 25 year old pregnant and she is blaming it on me, I understand it's haft of my fault but she blames the Whole thing on me. I don't know how I feel about this. I don't know how her husband would feel either... When this happened he was away, they also have two other kids, so I'm in a huge mess. I would like to know what you think. I think she will be getting an abortion since I'm only 14.
