Do you feel safe enough listing your state? Each state have different laws, but I am pretty sure all states allow minors to have an abortion without their parents finding out through the court system if the state requires parental consent. It is a pain though, but do-able.

Also, the abortion is probably not going to be free, although sometimes they do have programs that can help you out. It is state-by-state case.

Why are you considering an abortion? Do you want an abortion or is it more of a necessity?

Then you can visit a doctor to confirm you are pregnant. Adoption is such a wonderful option. Open (where you can see your child) or closed (where you don't) are very good alternatives to ending your child's life. PM if you want to hear more about the adoption option.
Except it may shock you to know that open adoptions aren't enforceable in many states. And great job on trying to guilt-trip her! You could have written it a lot better and left about the guilt-tripping bullshit. (It is possible and I used to do it all the time.)

Also, maybe you should look into giving birth vs abortion. Abortion is a lot safer than giving birth. The same side effects of sterility can occur from giving birth too. The risks of becoming infertile are lower than the risk of sterility or death from pregnancy.
