Waiting..... Posted: 12-09-04 19:29pm
Alright, I just want to talk to someone
about it I guess. I don't really think
i'm asking for help me like expressing my
opinion. I am getting married rather
soon and i'm moving to germany in
feburary.
I'm 16. I talked to my mom about
wanting to have a baby and she told me
once i'm married and I move it's not
really up to her anymore. We talked about
it and she told me it was our decision.
(my fiances) so we decided to, and now i'm
waiting to be able to take a test. I
think this could possibly be the hardest
part. I hope i'll make a good moher and I
know alot of people screw up when their
young, but I feel like I can do this and I
just want to let you all know. Young and
old people. Not all 16 year old
pregnancies are unexpected, some are
planned : d!!!!
Thanks for your time.

Congradulations in advance, but don't you
have other priorities in life? Like
education or persueing a career?
I know it is your life, and we would all
support you in whatever decision you will
make but think twice, as much as
mother-hood can be beautiful and rewarding
as much as it is full of sacrfices and
responsibilities...
My advice is think of yourself now... 16
is a young age!

well i'm going to finish hghschool one way
or another if I can finish in
homeschooling that would be grand if not,
graduating a year late wouldn't kill me.
As for a career, i've thought about it
and I would like to have a job, but i'd
also like to be a home (mom) i'll take
some photography and web design classes
and see how things go. I got delt some
pretty shitty cards in my childhood, and I
think it's made me a better, more mature
person.
We'll see how things work out. Michael
is 21, and she doesn't want to be an old
dad, and I really dont wanna be an old
mom, so I think it wouldbe fair is I had a
baby at 20 then he'd be 25, and i'd be
cheating him outta five years. Things
will work out.
Thanks.

Sweety I just wanted to tell you that I
know how hard it is to be a mom at 16. I
am 22 with a 5 1/2 year old. I know you
want a baby but waiting to finish high
school so you can have one doesn't make
much sense. 21 is not old and neither is
25. You won't be wasting those years! I
know what I am saying to you probably
won't matter much but I have to tell you
these things anyways. I really think you
should wait. Trust me when I tell you
that you might feel ready now but there
are alot of things you need to do before
you have this little person in your life,
for the rest of your life. Yes you should
finish school first and get a job first.
You want that baby to have the best life
you can possibly give it. If that means
waiting until you are a couple years
older, then wait. I think that if you are
that serious about having a baby and that
you are more mature for your age then you
would know that waiting a couple years
until you finish school and etc.. Is the
better choice. Just remember that babies
don't stay babies. They grow up and the
glamour of the whole idea fades away and
you realize just all the things you should
have done before you had the baby. Please
think about it. I wish you luck in which
ever decision you make and if you ever
need any advice or anyone to talk to
please keep in touch!
