Answer:
Stay in school, it will be hard, but in the long run worth it. You will go from job to job if you are not educated, no real career. You and your baby deserve more.

Hasn't your schools counciler talked to you about the available programs? Most high schools have day care available to mothers now, even if yours if offsite there should be something in place.
work the street.
you should do both if your health permits it
CONGRATS
dont let it get in your way youre too young sorry but get an abortion and go to school when you finish well you know
get the job

but if you wanna get a future "life" go through school and get all ur doplomas and such
stay in school and work with your aunt part time
definatly stay at school you need to learn how to spell first goodluck.
If you are keeping the baby the best thing you can do right now is continue with school. It's the only chance that child has. If you drop out you are a DROP OUT YOUNG PARENT, and where do you think that will lead you? A life of crappy jobs, and a life of hard knocks and that in turn will screw up your child's life. Think of someone besides yourself. That's what a mother does.
i would go back to school. You should atleast get your high school diploma. Most jobs won't allow somebody work for them if they don't have one. Plus, you don't want to be 26 years old and going back to high school because you regretted it...do you?
The best thing for you and your child is to stay in school, maybe work part time, but you need your education! Atleast your boyfriend is working to support you guys, you stay in school!
I had my first baby at 17 yrs old. And I'm still going to school. Later on your child is going to appreciate that since his life is going to be much better. Continue going to school. Later on in college you could do both.
you are a baby ; where is the guidance at home; you need to continue with your education now more than ever; don't quit your education; invest now in yourself; the only ticket out of poverty and to provide you and your baby the best life is EDUCATION, without it you will suffer your entire life just making ends meet. Stay in school no matter how hard or difficult; you need to protect yourself so you don't get pregnant again now or worse a STD.
if at all possible - stay in school. I wish you both could. Have you considered putting your baby up for adoption? I know that you might not want to do that, but as a teen myself i believe that you owe to your little boy to let him have good Adult parents who can give him a stable upbringing. Good job on getting a bf who is this dedicated to you! I'm not going to condemn you for having a kid at 13, although I do believe it is wrong, but my advice is stay in school, but don't starve to death. Good luck hon! I hope you and your little family always have always love! God's with you!
Stay in School! You can work part time with your aunt. It's going to be hard, but I'm sure you can do it if you really try.

Good luck with everything and congrats on the baby!
Stay in school if you can, there will always be jobs later and I am sure. If you can do both, if you find yourself needing extra cash but do your best to stay in school, it will provide a better future for you and your family in the long term. Good Luck
You know your boyfriend and you should both get a life! You don't have a choice (if you want to support your baby) but to get a job. Or he is a better one just put the baby up for adoption and study!
I'd say that the best thing for you and the baby is that you give the baby away. It pains me to say it, but he will have a much better life in an orphanage than with a 13-year-old. I just hope he didn't have AIDS or anything like that.

If you were molested (which it doesn't sound like) then I would recommend that you get some help finding that lowlife that infected you.

In any case, do not think about abortion. It was God's plan for you to have this baby. It was meant to be born. Abortion is indeed murder.

I am so sorry that you have to go through with this.

In answer to your question, you should stay in school if you can; otherwise make sure you have a way of getting back in when you're done.
Go to school!! There are plenty of organizations that help young teen moms even with clothing and such for your child! Talk to your high school guidance counselor and he/she can set you up with these organizations! You need school, most places with any kind of a good pay requires a high school diploma/GED! If you do chose to quit school, get your GED while you are working!
you shoud stay in school and if that gets too hard then think about taking home schooling. do not drop out because then in the future you will not be able to provide very well without a good job. You could also take a year off from school to be with your baby then go back the following year, but my best suggestion is to take home schooling until you are ready to go back. and get your boyfriend to finish school too!
Good Luck!
Ok ***** let's get this straight. You didn't have any quesitons to ask so you asked a stupid one like this.
your only 13 and pregnant poor Honey if you don't mind me asking how this happened at your age. Give us info on this so we can better help you. But I'll tell you know,
If it was rape take that dead beat father to court and sue him put him in jail and file for full custody and child support.
If it was your choice why at such a young age did you want a child your still young and have not done anything to experience life or try for your permit and license or graduated and gone to your prom.
If it was by mistake Honey that's what condoms are for and at your age this should have been far from your mind.
Now that you have a little one on your way your going to have to grow up and your going to need a lot of support to care for this little one.
I hope your family is still supportive of you and the father.
you can go to school and work there is nothing wrong with either one of it. your going to need your education and a job to take care of the baby.
No and let me tell u why.I work with children and where I work they have a day care at the school just for kids like u.It is high school though.You need to check and see if your high school has this.The reason is u need to stay in school so u get a education. You might want to go back to school when u get older.If u haven't finished H.S then your changes of returning are slim.So go and get it and then think about your child. The happier u are and the better u can provide for him or her the easier life is.Good luck
if you can get someone to care for your baby then get back to school and be someone that will make your baby proud of you and show others that there is more to you than someone who made a mistake as a child (yes you are still a child)
stay in school you can do it. i did it not at your age though i was 15. have faith in yourself and you can do anything. good luck
I agree with Tina M, you should try and do both. You should be able to get a night job or go to night school, that way you can finish your education and still support yourself and your kid. I know plenty of people that only went to the 8th grade, and now they are in their 20's and such, and having a hard time. God Bless, and congratulations.
Can you work with your aunt part time?I guess you could always go back to school when the baby is older.Another thing is are you breastfeeding or bottlefeeding?Who will look after the baby either way?
No! Don't quit school, that's the worse thing you could do. Go to your school counselor and find out if there are any programs at the high school or in your area for teenage moms. The best thing you could do for your child is to get an education and set the example for them.
obviousely by your spelling you should stay in school...but why should someone else (aunt) suffer by raising YOUR child. Why at 13 do you feel the need to have sex? because you think the boy that got you pregnant is going to like you better? My advice is that you are in for a LONG ROAD ahead of you. And may god bless you.
stay in school
