maybe not support then, more advice/rant/let the shock out, we just cant get over her "i coukdnt care less attitude" about it all.

oh and shes 20 weeks gone, yet her doc says its too far to be able to do anything bout it

As Kitkat says, it could be the making of her. My sister fell pregnant when she was 17. She was a total chav at the time. Now she is the role model of a good parent. Just goes to show:you never know.

Admittedly there was a lot of strain on our family at the time - that was 9 years ago. and theers also a lot of difference between a 17 and 13 year old.

But i'm sure at the end opf the day theres no-one more dissapointed about whats happened than herself. Its gonna be hard, but support is what she needs. "I told you so" sentiments are not gonna help anyone.

Hope it all works out.

thats the scary thing though, shes acting like its noooo big deal at all??? i just dont get it at all tbh

she may be acting like that now, but at some point reality will kick in. It could well be just a show of bravado.

hmmm i dunno, i know what shes like, she doesnt seem to live on this plane at times-its almost like she thinks that if she shuts her eyes and doesnt think about it that it will all go away and it all never happened?

WOWOWOWOWOWOWzors.

Surly the lad is going to get screwed for this? man thats so against the law no?

Typical kid reaction I guess, if they don't go and lock themselves in a room and ignore everyone, they just deny all knowledge almost and as you say act like nothing is happening. How soon did she find out she was pregnant just out of interest?

dunno mate, as said above-takes 2 to tango.

have values changed so much in just 10 years that kids think its ok to have babies when they are only kids themselves?
i know at her age i was certainly more intrested in horses etc than boys!

by the sound of it shes known awhile, she confided in a school friend who plucked up the courage to talk to a teacher about it when she realished my cousin wasnt going to say anything and the teacher rang my aunt.
