oh gosh, please don't.. I'm 25, graduated college when I was 20, known my fiancé since childhood, been together for almost 2 years, and I STILL don't feel ready to bring this baby into this world lol
it's a challenge, and Lord knows I wish I could be 16 again! enjoy life, take care of your body so you'll be able to handle carrying a baby in the future, and please make sure the other person you're with is ready for it too.. we all think we'll be 16 forever, but you'll probably fall in love 10 times before you're ready lol BE A KID, I still am when I can haha!!
good luck! ((: ❤
Well im not planning on having kids anytime soon
Please read the post below yours on this forum. The girl is pregnant, depressed, has no friends and her boyfriend left her. This happens alot to teen girls that are pregnant.
You have many years ahead of you to have children. Why do it now when you're not ready? When you have a baby your life is not your own any more. You are responsible for that child 24/7. You can't go out with friends, you can't sleep when you want to.
Have you checked the price of diapers and formula? The cost is outrageous.
At your age you and your bf have a 10% chance of staying together. Most - not all- of teenage parents struggle with living in poverty for many years. And poverty is very bad for children emotionally, mentally, and physically. I worked with low income children for over 5 years and many of those families started as teenage parents. They loved their children just as much as everyone else but I heard a lot of parents say they wish they would have waited to have babies because they had no idea how hard it would be. Remember, they are only a baby for a year!
Having kids is hard work when you're an adult and both have jobs and a place of your own. It's even harder when you are younger. I was 19 when I had my first child and it was tough. I lost a lot of my friends. My boyfriend and I fought constantly because we were stressed about money. I was forced to grow up rather quickly and missed out on a lot of things teens/young adults get to do. I really think it would be best for both of you to wait until you are older and have gotten to experience the other things life has to offer.
You are way too young to have a baby. You still have your future ahead of you. Enjoy life while you can because having a baby takes all of your time. I'm 21 and I've been with my bf for almost 7yrs and we're still not ready to have a child. If your not financially stable there's no need to have a baby. Stay in school just be safe
