The following are polite, acceptable statements to a minor woman who you've just found out is
pregnant:
- Congratulations!
- Best wishes for an easy labor.
- Has your [insert name of close female relative or good friend] set a date for the baby shower?
- I'm so glad you still have health insurance through your [insert name of parent]!
- Do you have a copy of Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Newborn yet? It's totally better than What to Expect. Let it be my gift to you.
- I've just subscribed you to hipMama magazine.
- Does your high school have a daycare? You know you have a right to graduate with your class, right?
And that's about it. Unless you also want to quote
Allison Crews (1982-2005):
Girls like me have raised presidents. We've raised messiahs and musicians, writers and settlers. Girls like me won't compromise, and we won't fail.
