Different worries...
Im starting to think that teen pregnancy is a lot more common in big cities than out in the suburbs. Im watching 16 and pregnant, and these girls are a lot more worried about what their friends are going to say than the actual important stuff. I do not condone teen pregnancy, but i do know that a lot of teens are mature and become very good parents. I was a teen myself when i got pregnant the first time. I was 18 and it hit hard. I know that for a teen that has school going on, an unexpected pregnancy is a lot to take in. However, i do not remember caring about others opinion. My first thought was "how am i going to support this baby financially?" I guess we definitely are all different.
Was anyone a teen parent? And how did you take it?

we are not close.. she's from my dads side and I don't really talk to that side.
I wish I could help and encourage her w/good things I'm life.. not saying having a baby isn'
But things she should enjoy as child!
She's lives w/her 19 yr old bf!
She very very very immature and annoys me w/her dumb..I don't know how to spell status..
Lol excuse me!
I don't know how she is for a mom though.. I haven't hung out w/her since she was 12!
Once her status said something about after she had her son it seemed like everyone was coping her! And gave a speech on how she's still w/her bby dad.
And said her son was plan.
And yesturday shes asking what color should she die her hair..after she just permed it! And talking about getting a tat soon.. but she's prego!?
I thank my mom for the tough love. It helped me grow up.
The kids just seemed to do more at a younger age these days
I was extremely excited, I didn't care what people thought. I knew I was about to give my life up to my daughter and take care of her every way I can and I was happy too, now I am and I'm damn good at it
Then again, i know many girls that step up and they become wonderful mothers. They give the father an ultimatum, and get rid of him if he's not doing his part. Honestly, i think that the route of a teen parent is determined by the parent of the teen. If you as a parent allow your teen to resume life without any responsibility over that child, then they will do so. My mom let me stay in her house, but i had to pay rent. I already had a car note and insurance payment, but she didn't budge. I still remember what she told me. She said "you took an adult decision, so from now on you will have adult responsibilities." And now i thank her. I would not be the person i am today if it wasn't for her. I think teen parents need a little tough love.
