| If it helps any: My sister was 18 when she got pregnant and 19 when she had my first niece...and my parents were ANGRY from the moment they found out. It was quite funny to see my mom and dad, who swore they'd never have anything to do with this baby, in the hospital cheering my sister on. My dad was especially against it and he was the proudest most beaming person there, stopping perfect strangers and telling them about his granddaughter.
Also: I screwed up and had to move back in with my parents at 20 (humiliating moment of my life!) and when we got pregnant the first time, we were living with my parents. It wasn't my proudest moment by a long shot. We ended up barely moved out by the time our first came along. AND we've moved back in with his mom as parents of 2...now we are on our own. I swore I'd never live with our parents when I became a parent...I was wrong!
Everything happens for a reason and I'm only telling you these things above to let you know that feelings do change and people grow...and that you can do anything you want as long as your heart is in it. This is not the easiest choice in the world and what ever happens is gonna be scary, but you're a strong person and you have support, I don't know you really well but I'm here
