Okay, so my boyfriend's "aunty" not really aunty but a close friend of the family said "we're too young to be parents" that's what she told my mom, my mom told me about it and I was mad as hell because she tells me & my boyfriend "it's okay if you two are young I was young too, you guys will do great" isn't that kind of being ttwo faced?

Don't let it get you down! My family was furious with me when I was pregnant with my first , because I was 18 when I got pregnant and 19 when I had her. They said horrible things to us like I was throwing my life away and would never amount to anything. But we have been married almost 5 years, have an almost 4 year old and are having baby #2

I would agree. I would rather hear it face to face then have it get around the family then me, how they truly feel. It'll still suck to hear it but i think it will be more respectful.

It doesn't mean they don't like you.  She's trying to put on a positive face to try to encourage you so that you have a chance to make it as parents.

But her honest feelings are,  you are too young.

"Two faced" usually implies that someone has evil intent - in this case,  she's trying to give you support she knows you will surely need.

Would you rather her tell you her honest opinion to your face?

It's okay I knew his family didn't like me :) but that's okay, because they won't be seeing my kid all the time.

I thought the same, I was offended & told my boyfriend never to let her around my baby because of that, if she doesnt support us why should she be allowed to see my baby?

yes it is being two faced. Some people are just scared to say What they feel. But a lot of people have kids young and do fine. I personally don't think she should have said that she should have kept yourself. Because now that's gotta be something you remember about her. I'll probably bring hard feelings. I'm sorry she is acting like that.
