    Underage and pregnant
    I just turn 16 on the 12th I'm 6 months pregnant. The guy is 18 and will turn 19 in January.
    My parents are stupid and haven't pressed charges. But I want to press charges. What can I do?

    Why are your parents stupid? What in your opinion should they have done and when did you tell them that you were pregnant? Lots of questions, huh? Well - you didn't supply much information, so someone had to ask...
    Did you get raped? If so, why did you not go and report the incident right away.
    Or, is this now a payback for him not wanting anything more to do with you?
    If you did not want the baby, why did you wait so long to say something about it - especially here?
    Make a sure plan for you and your future, talk to someone - the police, school, etc. and go through with that plan even if it creates a little work for you to do. Nothing comes easy in this world - and it sounds to me as if you gave up not just your viginity, but your care-free teen years that you'll never get back. Sorry about that honey.

    No matter what your choice, I hope things work out for you one way or the other.

    He didn't rape me. He just tricked me. I think he should be jail because he's a sick person and that's where he belongs. He needs a reality check. I think my parents should have put him in jail when I told them when I was 8 weeks. He's abusive and mentally unstable.
    But he's in the army servin in iraq has been since right after I found out. So everyone thinks he's some kind of hero. I'm not trying to be spitful. I've wanted to leave him for a year. But he drove his car into a tree. But he's gone now. I wasn't sure at first if I could
    Handle this. But just because he's a bad parent doesn't mean I have to be too. I've went through a lot with her already. I just want her to be happy. And I'm scared to do this all on my own. I don't want to mess up. But then again. I want him no where near her. He doesn't want her now but I'm also scared he'll change his mind.

    So inform your doctor, you call the police, your parents don't have to be the ones to call the police.

    But as J9 noted, please explain why you registed as a boy

    He tricked you for at least a year, then you slept with him?
    You don't want to do this alone but he doesn't want this baby?
    You don't want to be spiteful but you want him to go to jail?
    The whole thing sounds like a spoiled little girl who had a different scenario than what reality would deal her. So like a child when things don't go your way... "I don't want to play with you any more, "I'm telling momma on you!" This isn't a kids game any more. While he was stupid to mess with a kid you are old enough to take some responsibility for your own stupidity. Bet you wasn't thinking jail when you were letting him have sex with you. I bet you wasn't thinking jail even up to the time he told you he didn't want this baby. Oh yes you are trying to be spiteful all right.

    I suspect a troll here. But bottomline, you get off your butt and waddle down to the nearest police station and file a report. If you are a female and walk in with a belly, they will take you seriously.

    Depending on your area, if had sex, even consensual sex, at 15, then that could be statutory rape.
