This depends on what state/country you reside in and your age.

In many states in the USA if a minor under the legal age of consent becomes pregnant the parents can have the baby put up for adoption without the minors consent.

In some states where abortion is legal the parents can have the pregnancy terminated if the minor is under the legal age of consent.

All in All if parents dont want pregnant minors,then said parents need to place those minors on Birth Control..If said minor doesnt want to take a pill everyday or refuses to take a pill everyday then parents can opt for injections or implants to prevent pregnancy..

No child under the age of 18 that lives at home with their parents and doesnt have the income to support themselves ie. a REAL JOB not part time at Burger King should even think about getting pregnant and dropping another BILL onto their parents.

No! In no US state can anyone decide for someone else if they should have an abortion or not, even if they are a minor. Parents can not do that legally. It is always up to the female carrying it. And abortion is not legal in some states but in all of them. Same rule for adoption.

You can also not force a minor or anyone else to get on birth control or any other medical treatment against their will unless it's extreme like fighting cancer. If the parents don't want their child living at home with their grandchild they still have to pay for her.

A parent that gives permission for a minor to have sex with an adult is committing a crime, as is the adult with whom the minor has sex. Think about it.

It is the responsibility of the parent to protect their minor child.
