I have a friend whom I met on the net, his name is ----. He is a friend of my school mate and we became close because of the day to day basis of chatting. One day he have a problem and shared it with me. He got his 14yr old GF pregnant. After knowing this he asked the girl to live in with him and get married on the right age. The girl didn't accept his offer and ran off to Manila and had an abortion. The guy was devasted he realy wanted the baby. Right now he hated the girl.
Who made the right decission?
What was the right thing to do?
Was the girl wrong for aborting the child and running off?

I think the girl was very young to be in such a serious relationship. She was just 14 years old. She must have been very shocked to become pregnant at that age. Your friend was being responsible asking his girlfriend to move in with him and get married in a few years. But perhaps this scared her as she might have been happy living with her parents and getting on well with her studies. The girl decided to have an abortion and she might believe that was the right choice for her or she might regret her decision to get rid of their baby. It must have been a tough decision for her to make. Of course your friend is devastated that his girlfriend rejected his offer of living together and ended her pregnancy.
I think your friend made the wrong decision to have such a serious relationship with a 14 year old in the first place. But he was right in showing responsibility in wanting to support her and the baby. I think the girl made the wrong decision rushing off to have an abortion. But she can't turn the clock back. If I was her I would have kept my baby, stay with my parents or move in with my boyfriend. I don't think is right for your friend to hate his ex-girlfriend.

It was Irresponsible to have intimacy at that age anyway plus unprotected... how old is the guy? what happened was a very immature decision that can happen to even a 26 year old... If they both don't learn from this... then It may just happen again. They both made the wrong decision to make this baby without planning it so they both made the decision for the consequenses they both have to live with.

i also think what the girl did was right for her considering her age at that time she got pregnant she must have been in shock.that age is not right for marriage at all.
