Parenting

Choosing parenting means you’ll continue your pregnancy and raise your child. Some people find parenting to be difficult, while others find it to be very enriching.

It is crucial to weigh your options and learn what resources are available if you choose parenting. We’ll help you gather the information needed to make a confident decision. 

Am I Ready To Be A Parent?

Knowing where to begin when you’re considering parenting can be challenging. Asking yourself these questions can be a helpful place to start:

  • Do I have financial support from my partner, parents, or others?
  • Am I emotionally ready to become a parent?
  • Can I provide a safe and healthy environment for my child?
  • How will parenting affect my job or schooling?

Your answers to these questions can help you thoughtfully consider whether parenting may be right for you. We’re here to address any additional questions or concerns as you go through the decision-making process.
