Of course its not easy. Its not even easy
to most parents who aren't teenagers.
Alot of moms do drop out of school to
raise their babies which of course I do
not reccomend.. I'm staying in school.
In my town I have a student mom's program.
We do our schooling and very near our
school is a daycare for our babies. Its
not as strict as regular school so that if
our babies need us or are sick we can miss
the needed days and not fall far behind.
I haven't had my baby yet but I am going
to the school and its really great because
if I feel sick in the morning (which I
sometimes do) then I do not have to go in
if I really do not want to and they are
alot more undertanding about it.

first off, it isn't easy for anyone to
raise a baby. And being a teenager just
makes it all the more difficult. Although
some of the teen mothers that I have seen
and talked to seem like better parents
than those who are in their twenties and
thirties. Some teens just stop going to
school altogether, some take some time off
and go back later, and some have someone
take care of the baby while they are at
school. As for what the people who live
around you and what they would say,
depends on who they are. Some people are
extremely happy and proud of you for
having a baby and for being a teen mother
and sticking to the responsibilities. But
there are always a few who love to put you
down, make fun of you, harrass you. Ya
know the really nasty people. Hope that
answers your questions. Much love melissa

Hello thanks for replyin to my
message...Ive also put up a thing in
pregnancy called help..Could I be
pregnant? If u would like to read
it...But im not sure I might be pregnant
but then if I am im not sure...Im only 13
and in the 8th grade...I just became
sexually active this year...Not really
this yr...But this is the first b/f that I
have been sexually active wit but we have
been together for like 4 months soo I
guess u can say that is good and we both
love each other...But ya if I was pregnant
I would say it would be hard but as long
as I had my familys support and some
friends...I know my best friend would be
there cause she has told me and she is
sexually active herself so ya...She knows
wat I would be goin through I guess u
would say...But I would wanna finish
highschool because wats the point of the
babys life if I didnt have a highschool
diploma I would be workin at a fast food
resturant or maybe not even that I wouldnt
make enough money for my baby and me and
my b/f or watever...And if I was pregnant
my bf would be there and hes gonna
graduate this yr so he will be gettin a
job and bla bla n he said that he would
watch the baby if he could while I went to
school or one of our family member would
have to watch them...So I think I will
have it ok as for there if I do ever
become pregnant...Well who ever is readin
this thanks for takin time out of ur day
to read it cause sometimes its nice to
have someone there to talk about stuff wit
that u dont wanna talk about to some other
ppl...Well im gonna go now...Thanks alot
