    No, he probably can't pretend to be your guardian. Unless he is significantly older than you they'll know right away he is not your guardian. And if he's that much older he needs to be prosecuted because that would make him a pedophile. How old is this guy anyway?

    You should talk with your nana. And if not her, do you have any aunts or even older cousins or a teacher you can talk to? Maybe your school counselor? You should not be making this decision alone. Have you made a doctor's appointment yet?

    Where do you live? In most places a 14 year old isn't considered legal to consent to sex, especially not with a 24 year old.

    You really do need to tell your nana.

    Bad news. Depending on where you are in Australia, the youngest age of consent is 16, and in some parts it's 17.

    Not only are you not old enough to consent, but because of the difference in age between you and the father of your child, he is a sex offender.

    Actually, yes it does.

    He could be charged with having sex with a minor. You're pregnant with his child. You're 14, he's 24.

    He's an adult, you're a child.

    He's in big trouble.

    The thing is, there are a few other posters using that same computer, and they all seem to be teen girls with similar issues. It looks suspicious.

    Like I said, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and hope that you're not playing games with us.

    The bottom line, you're 14, you're pregnant with a 24 year olds child. In the eyes of the law you are a child, and you are not legally allowed to consent to sex. He's an adult, and having sex with a minor is a crime.

    You need to tell your nana that you're pregnant. There's really no way for you to hide it for long, and if you're looking to get an abortion you only have a small window of opportunity. No doctor will do an abortion past the first trimester (12 weeks).

    The babies father can't take you for an abortion. He's not your legal guardian. In fact, in the eyes of the law, he's a pedophile, a sex offender, a rapist.

    You need to stop seeing him. This man is only after one thing from you. You're not old enough to see that, that's why there are laws to protect children.
