Butler Resources

Butler Resources

My case study was about an eighteen year old girl who is going through hard times. Her hard times being: boyfriend of two years breaking up with her, parents getting a divorce and finding out that she is pregnant. As all of this is happening she is also adapting to her first year in college. In complete panic she doesn't know where to turn, how can this be happening to her?
First thing I would tell her is that you can over come this. Many young women go through the same thing that you are. It might be hard to do by yourself but Butler has resources that can help you through this. There are counseling sessions offered through the school and also through the town. In El Dorado they have a pregnancy center that is located right on central when coming into Butler, they will offer you a free testing and direct you to further help if needed. Not far from there is a counseling center that can help you through the hard times.
In using these resources to your advantage will help you through the break up, your parents divorce and your pregnancy. It may be mind boggling thinking about being to young to be a parent, but you to learn to take responsibility towards your actions. Even though you want out of it, and you want it all to go away; stick with it. Count your blessings, and always remember that someone somewhere is going through a similar situation or even a harder time.
Let your parents intervene with your situation it could have a positive outcome for their relationship if they have to pull together for the benefit of you and their grandchild.
