I have some experience with adoption, and I am not sure how the media would have the info about the adopting family, but maybe you know something I don’t. I suppose it would depend on the adoption route chosen.

How long do you think the adopting family would get media attention? what would the media gain by it? What would it prove? If most people think adoption is the best solution to her situation, why would the media keep it active?

As I said, you may be right, but I still think most voters think that adoption is preferable to teenagers “having to” get married.

Forever. Attempt to get their candidate elected. What makes you think MOST people think adoption is the best solution? IHMO, the "best solution" is one that does not kill the baby. All the rest is secondary. The media would keep it active in an attempt to make republicans look bad. It's the same reason that you can rarely read an article about Ted Bundy without seeing it mentioned that he was a republican.

No one is saying that she has to get married. If they want to, great, if not that's okay, too. Like everything else in this situation, it's really none of my business.

As for how would the media get the info, how did the Obama campaign get his opponent's divorce records unsealed?? In this day and age, nothing completely private when a relative is in the spotlight.

Nobody “has to” get married anymore. MY grandaughter is going to marry her babys father but after she gets out of school and they are better off financially. I think its a smart move.
