Found out that i'm pregnant and the dad is not supporting me and he wants me to get an abortion, but i don't want to the reason for that is because this is my only chance to ever have a child and he knows that too but he has been ignoring me and not caring all of a sudden, i don't understand and i don't know what to do.
I'm only 17 years old, very scared and confused.......

If you don't want to have an abortion, then absolutely do not - no matter what the dad is saying. Not to cause strife between you and the father of the child, but it is your child too! Go straight to the doctor, if you haven't already, and get some advice. They have support groups out there who can help you with just about anything you need help with, from finances to emotional support. Yes, you are young, but thousands of women have been in your same situation and have pulled through okay. Support is crucial for you right now. Go with your gut though, if you are not wanting to go through with the abortion do not. You don't want to regret it afterward and it is something that you can never go back and change. Best of luck to you and if you need more help, please write back to us. There are a lot of women here on the board who can help and share their own experiences.

I totally agree with Brenda. No one can make a decision like that for you. You have to live with it and it sounds like you'd have a lot of trouble doing that. Follow Brenda's advice regarding the support groups etc. There is soooo much help out there for you. Get to a clinic, where there are counselors who can guide you in the right direction. If you are going to move forward, be the best that you can be for your baby. Put the baby first in all things. You have to commit to providing shelter, values and time to that baby. I know you can do it...Now get started...Keep us informed of what's happening...I know you'll find even more help in this community.
