Parenting

If you were not planning on your pregnancy, the thought of becoming a parent can be overwhelming. But just because this was not a part of your plan doesn’t mean your life is over. In fact, many people who choose to parent after an unplanned pregnancy share how much better their life became after that decision.

How do I Know if Parenting is Right for me?

At Pregnancy Aid Clinic, our caring and professional staff is here to help you consider key questions if you’re considering becoming a parent. Some things that might help you begin thinking realistically about your decision include:

  • Will you be able to continue your education or career?
  • Do you have a support system to help you?
  • Does the father want to be involved?
  • What resources do you have to financially support raising a child?
  • Are you in a safe or stable situation to raise a child?
