Okay this is my view.
Abortion is not the only answer to your problem.
If you are genuine and not a "Wind up merchant"
Phone these people.
They will help your girlfriend.
POst Abortion syndrome is terrible.
Help and support is there.
don't be frightened, be strong, it takes two to create another
and there are plenty of other people out there who can't have children who desperatly want children.
You are both so very young but , it is not the end of the world.
If as you say your girlfriend has an abusive and violent father, these people can definitly help you.
New start new life for you all.
please if you are genuine think very carefully.
It's not just you, the effects of post abortion syndrome can be long lasting on your girfriend, her physical and mental health are at stake.
Be strong for her and for you.
She needs your support
Good luck.

Perhaps you could ask a trusted teacher or ex-teacher to help you, or find a free counseling agency where you can talk w/ someone and decide what is best. With her abusive father perhaps she should be living in a women's shelter. I hope the best for you.
I SHUDDER to think of Unknown66, who only the other day wanted to BEAT HIS GIRLFRIEND TO MAKE HER LOSE THE BABY, ever, ever, being a father or having any contact with a defenseless child.
I hope and pray if they do choose to have the baby, that this extremely immature couple, and dangerous young man, do NOT have anything to do with it after it is born.
I think it sounds like your parents will be much more supportive and as long as everyone knows of the danger that her father could potentially be, your girlfriend should be protected from him. Really and truly, what do you think would happen if her dad does find out that she's pregnant? Do you REALLY know for a fact that he would hunt you guys down and attempt to kill the two of you, or hurt either of you physically? If you TRULY beleive that, then you need to alert the police that way when and if he finds out and attempts anything, well then HE'LL be the complete ass that's in big trouble. You'll be suprised at the amount of support that the two of you will receive, even in that small town of yours, even if you guys are young. Please really think this through....rationally. I have to commend you for at least showing genuine concern for her in this situation; alot of guys your age would bail in a situation like this. You have potential to be a great man; just handle this like one and listen to your heart....don't be scared. Don't stop posting....I know that we all are genuinely concerned about you two..You're in my prayers.
has your girfriend sought medical advice?
Has she taken a test?
Is she definitly pregnant?
You have been given lots of advice and i hope for her sake you are doing something about it.
If she is pregnant then remember that at the age she is she is still a minor.
The web site i told you about does free pregnancy testing and will provide help and shelter for her if she decides to have the baby. They have a free phone number too.
Contact them and see if they can help, they are used to these sort of situations.
All i can see is that you are getting yourself more and more wound up, listening to people who's advice is either starvation or beating. Seek medical help. See a responsible adult who you can both trust.
Whatever the outcome of this situation your girfriend's health and well being is the most important thing.
good luck to you both you need it.
nobody wants to give you a hard time.may be i have come across too strong but i am very concerned.
please let us know what's happening please
