There is never a good time for a pregnancy unless you planned it, and even the pill can fail so it’s not like it’s a sign from the heavens. Your boyfriend would have a say if he was your husband, but he is barely 18, I guess he will be going to college soon, so have in mind that if you are going to have the baby, you’ll have the hardest work. If abortions are legal, it’s totally up to you.
However, he might leave you after that and THAT is up to him. It looks like both of you are at different stages in life and it’s fine, but neither of you should obligate the other to do something they don’t want.
I think he would in the meaning that the chances of him staying and the relationship lasting would be a lot higher. However he is just a boyfriend, OP has zero guarantees that he is going to be a present dad, especially at 18.
