Good day

I just want to know. My daughter is now 15. Her ex boyfriend is almost 17. They had sexual intercourse and she fell pregnant.. We will be there for her. My question is just wil there be any legal actions taken from the states side. Can they take my child or her unborn baby when she is born.. Like i said we do support her and really dont want to complicate things with legal issues. We already have a lot to deal with as it is now. We only want to help her give birth and support them both. She and the baby.
