Might I suggest that you get her some unbiased counceling so she can look at all of the options and make an informed decision.

great post support2adopt!!

Please wait until after your grandchild is born to make this life changing decision.

Consider that most agencies offer post adoption services (damage control) to all 3 sides of the triad. But WHY?????

Your daughter may be a temporarily vulnerable mother at 16- but adoption is a lifelong process for everyone"touched".
I have links for financial and educational programs available to help single mothers raise their children, as well as community sponsored classes in parenting skills. I'd be glad to PM them to you.
Regards,

I have my OBC!! pfffffffft!
I missed her, I missed my siblings, I missed the connection, the identity, the ethnic background, the medical history..... I lost something very important in my life for 40 plus years. I am thankful to finally have all that back
