31- If I had any inkling of what was going on, I would have tried to do something about it. I didn't even know he had a girlfriend, let alone that he was having sex.

I don't understand OP's parents' logic. If parents giving their kids the sex talk is too "awkward," then how would OP know. Or only children for that matter. Just wondering.

You seem to genuinely care and worry about both his and the baby's wellbeing. Like you said in a previous comment, they are too young and immature to be parents. They have no idea what they've just gotten themselves into. They don't understand all of the responsibilities that come with being a parent and are going to need all of the help and support they can get. It sounds like you want to do everything you can to give them that help and support even though it's not your responsibility. Your brother is lucky to have a sister like you and your niece/nephew will be lucky to have an aunt like you. You seem very responsible about sex despite your upbringing and education. I'm guessing there is a good chance you've already thought of this, but in case you haven't, you should talk to your brother and his girlfriend and find out if either of them have had any other partners. If they have, they both need to go get tested.

After finding out, I told my brother I wanted to talk to both him and his girlfriend together without the added stress of parents around. That was one of the first things we talked about because I was concerned not only for their health, but also the baby and the possibility of his girlfriend passing an STD to the baby. I went ahead and took them to a clinic to get tested because even though it wasn't intercourse, they have had sexual contact with other people

This poor girl should get an abortion. Or at least think about it. Unfortunately, Abstinence-only sex ed also means "pro-life" ed most of the time. Time for me to get downvoted :) but I really meant what I said and stand by it.
Look at the bright side a baby is going to be born in 9 months!

I hope my response doesn't come across the wrong way. It's not my intention to be mean or sound like a bitch. That is not a bright side. In general, I love babies/kids. They are the best (that is just my opinion. I fully understand that other people feel differently and completely respect and see nothing wrong with their feelings/opinions) If my brother was a responsible adult ready to have a baby, I would be so happy to find out that a baby is going to be born and I'm going to be an aunt. That's just not the case here. It's not just a baby being born. It's a baby being born to two 15 year old kids that are in no way ready to be mature, responsible parents. It's a serious situation, not something to celebrate. Quite frankly, it's very upsetting. Especially considering the statistics about children born to teen parents.
I'm going to agree with an earlier comment. An abortion is likely the best way to go about this.
Sorry if I'm offensive, but are they going to keep the baby?

125- She comes from a family that doesn't believe in abortion or adoption. She doesn't want an abortion anyway, but even if she did minors need parental consent to get one in Ohio unless they can get a judicial bypass, which is hard to do. When it comes to adoption, her parents have gone so far to blatantly lie to her about adoption. My parents also don't believe in abortion or adoption. So, I don't think there is much of a chance they won't keep the baby. I don't think they feel like they can even seriously consider placing the baby for adoption because they are so afraid of doing anything to make their parents mad. My parents have already threatened to kick my brother out and her parents have done the same thing to her. All parents involved seem to care more about punishing them for the pregnancy than doing anything that even remotely resembles support. All of which infuriates me. I hate that I can't do anything besides make sure they know that, no matter what, they have at least one person supporting them, including always having the option of coming to live with me; that they will never have to deal with this or raise this baby by themselves without the help and support they need

Oh, and don't worry, 125, you aren't offensive. Sorry, I meant to add that to my comment
is his name Tyler bc a guy I know named Tyler just got his gf pregnant and he's 15 and his parents had almost the same reaction

No, his name isn't Tyler
Who lets there 15 year old son have sex?
We had the same thing told to us! Shame he couldn't decipher the lies :(
and of course, "people" like this won't even consider abortion.
Really? Someone who doesn't want an abortion doesn't count as a real person?

Your parents are morons.
Your brother and his girlfriend are the only two to blame. If you believe you're mature enough for sex, then you're mature enough to do your homework on the risks as well.
