Sounds like she wanted to trap him by telling him she was pregnant. The mind of a 14 year old girl is too simple. So sorry to read it backfired on her. And NO, I am not blaming her for what he did. Why ever would she tell him she was pregnant when she wasn’t? To many young girls, having a baby ‘guarantees’ you will have someone who loves you. She was seriously misinformed about the complexities of relationships and life. And NO, her parent (s) shouldn’t have let her ‘date’ a 22 year old. I once had a discussion with a friend about the NYC school system offering young girls abortion assistance, without parental consent. My friend basically told me I didn’t understand the Black community. She said ‘do you want her to have the baby???’ I said ‘no, I don’t want her to be pregnant to begin with’. Heartbreaking lack of parenting.

Maybe her period was late, and she thought she was pregnant.

Well, you are just fantasizing that about the girl. A fourteen year old who thinks she's getting too big for her skinny jeans, or who has a bit of an unpredictable cycle, might think she was pregnant quit reasonably (for a kid that age.) Even those drugstore tests are not 100%.

I suspect she'd know that would not be a good way to develop stronger bonds with her boyfriend. A good look around the neighborhood would probably have shown that's a good way to make him want to vamoose out of your life forever.

My deepest sypmpahy for the girl and her family. As for the BF --- I can't think of anything to say except I wish we had penal colonies on other planets, or at the bottom of the sea.
