Is teen pregnancy really that wrong? Can I not keep my child? Why do people shame young mothers?

I'm 20 still schooling, but I'm6 weeks pregnant with my boyfriend's. I'm loving every moment of my pregnancy especially can't wait to see my little baby bump. But sadly I have to abort the child before I'm 6 months pregnant. This was the plan because I am financially unstable to support the baby and my boyfriend too. I know I will be fine if I go for abortion but does anyone thinks otherwise? Should I keep my baby? I'm not even sad about having this child while I should feel guilty. I wish I could keep this baby but for now i have to do whats right to prevent shame, isolation or the possibility of my parents kicking me out of house. #advicepls

I didn’t know you but i know what i do. I was 15 and i love my boyfriend more than i love myself. But here am i 5years after everything happened. I regretted it for the rest of my life. I keep on dreaming about my baby saying he missed me. Why? Because i dont have the guts in the first place. But i did it anyway because everyone including the man that i love said IT WAS WRONG to be pregnant. Im not going to say what is right & wrong for you. But here is the thing, u gotta do what u think is right so u didn’t regretted it like i did. After all we all have a choice & every choice have consequences. Because why? After 5years here i am being married to the man I thought I would’ve never married & here am i crying mostly everyday because it’s has been hard to conceive a baby.
