    I'm going to be blunt, at 14 you don't know yet what's best for your future. Which makes me really sad that you are pregnant. And by an ADULT. You are still a child. I hope that you will be able to finish school and make a good life for this child. That's what you need to focus on right now.

    He committed statutory rape. What do you need help with?

    Yes he will be in prison and he will be a registered sex offender for the rest of his life.
    And I will be honest, a TEXAS prison is the last place he wants to be as a sex offender.
    The older prisoners will think of a 14 year old child as their daughter or sister and his life will be hell in prison.

    So you are wrong and he 18 year old is totally wrong for being with you.

    Please tell your parents you are pregnant immediately. This man is no good for you. It is very easy to feel like he's "everything" to you and you probably think we "don't understand" because he's "diffferent" and "amazing". Well, you're 14 and pregnant by him. How is it going so far to be involved with him? So far he has put you into a terrible crisis by breaking the law with you.

    You need your parents to step into this situation - you are way over your head. It is not the end of the world - your parents may be able to raise the baby or you could consider adoption. But you need to be done with this grown man, and he needs to be in jail for statutory rape. He is not your concern - you and your baby are your concern. He is the adult and can take care of his sorry self.

    And you can't hide this anyway, the sooner you tell your parents, they sooner you get into the doctor, start on the correct diet, start getting medical check ups for the baby.

    It is time to forget about yourself and start to worry about what is best for the baby.

    I'm not going to judge you, I'm going to judge this man. An 18 yr old has no business even dating a 14 yr old, let alone having sex with her. This is going to come out and there is a good probability that he will be prosecuted. In my opinion he deserves it.
