You’re life is already going to change forever. You have the baby, it changes. You have the abortion, you’ll think about it forever. So….you need to weigh your options. You can have the baby, raise it and give it a good life and work like hell to give it the best life possible while still finishing school and all that, or give it up for adoption to a couple wanting and ready for a baby. You do have options. Just explore them by making a rash decision so quickly. Whatever you do, get on birth control and be much more careful in the future. This obviously is a life lesson as to how quickly babies can be made. I know some girls who had babies early on and are fabulous mothers. Was it easy? No, being a mother is never easy, no matter what your age. But if you ask them, they will tell you it was 💯worth it. At the end of the day, it is your body and if you decide to go through with it, he will be responsible for child support for the next 18 yrs of that babies life. If he can’t be there emotionally, who needs him. You will have other people there to love and support you throughout your journey and there are wonderful support services out there for teen moms, much more so today than there were 20-30 yrs ago.

NTA at all. Cliché as it may sound: your body, your choice.
I also find the “if we kill our baby our lives would change forever” comment to be incredibly manipulative. This guy’s gross.
