2) what are the advantages are of becoming a teen parent?

3) what are the disadvantages of becoming a teen mother?

4) for people in uk has anyone not been allowed to go to school because you are pregnant?

1) do you regret getting pregnant?/ do you regret becoming a teen mother?

A: I am not pregnate but I had a scare. If I was preg I wouldnt regret it.

2) what are the advantages are of becoming a teen parent?

A: you may get along with your child better for being closer to its age.

3) what are the disadvantages of becoming a teen mother?

Money is harder to come by, you havnt finnished school yet so there is a high possibility of having a hard time getting things it needs without help

4) for people in uk has anyone not been allowed to go to school because you are pregnant?

A: I live in canada and we have a high school where I live with a childcare program

5) people for the uk do you think that you get enough benifits? And if your under 16 did you get any financial help?

A: yet again I live in canada, and if we are not with the fathers we can get some finacal help from the goverment I think its called "young mothers fund" something I dont know. But it helps alot of people out.

1) do you regret getting pregnant?/ do you regret becoming a teen mother?

I do not getting pregnant. Sometimes I wish I would have waited but looking at everything now, im actually kinda glad I did get pregnant!

2) what are the advantages are of becoming a teen parent?
Advantages are being a young mom so there could be that closer bond. I also matured faster than some and got my priorities and life goals straightened out.

3) what are the disadvantages of becoming a teen mother?

Missing out on certain events in life, not being able to have ur full teenage life to hang out with friends, tho you still get to but not as you used too. Its also harder to work and go to college than it would be without a child.
