"I'm sorry that the first real adult decision you will ever make is one of the hardest," said Nicole Hennessy, mom of 17-year-old Angelina.

In another TikTok, Nicole explained that she got her daughter's permission to post the above video and she hoped it would raise awareness about the topic.

Nicole's video has racked up more than 13 million views in less than a week, and many commenters - including doctors and fellow parents - are praising the way she handled the situation:

Nicole sat down with Angelina to help her make an informed decision about her options. "Angelina is the one who has to live with whatever decision she makes. Our life is like our own personal story, her next chapter should not be up to me. My job is to educate her and give her facts so she can think for herself," said Nicole, adding, "I told her I would support whatever she decides and I told her I'm sorry that the first real adult decision you will ever make is one of the hardest."

She further explained, "Her dad and I discussed the pros and cons of each option. I told her to make a list of what she wanted from life and how her choices will fit in to that. I found her professionals to discuss and work through her options with. I told her my personal opinion was not important because it's her life, not mine. We also discussed that no matter what she decided, people will judge, so ignore it all and listen to herself."

BuzzFeed also spoke to Angelina, who said she felt shocked when she found out she was pregnant. "When my mom gave me all of my choices, I felt overwhelmed and didn't know what the right decision was for me. As I gave myself a while to think and talk with my mom, I felt that keeping the baby was the right choice for me, knowing how supportive my family is, especially my mom," she said.
