The hardest thing? Giving up being a child
myself.
The best thing? My son.
The worst thing? Being married to an
abusive alcoholic and having no where to
go.
The best thing? My son.

I guess this doesn't technically apply to
me as I'm a pregnant teen, not quite a
parent yet. but so far, the best thing is
the impact it has had on my life. I used
to be quite the party girl, and really
didn't care how my actions affected me or
anyone else, and I had little respect for
myself. Now the most important thing to me
is staying healthy for the babe, working
as hard as I can and making sure that I
can provide a cushy life for the little
one, even if myine is extremely hard.
The worst thing is the criticism I get,
how many of my family members and friends
think "how could you let this happen in
this day and age" and feeling the need to
explain myself, over and over.
It doesn't matter though! In the end it
will all be worth it.

The steriotypeing is the worst i have to
say, it doesn't really bother me but it
gets annoying when people stare at you and
then you hear them whispering i just want
to turn around and say 'yes i'm 15, i
slept with one person and used a condom,
deal with it'.
DOm's prents being the way they are but
hey if they want to live their lives
without a beautiful granddaughter in it
then that's their loss not mine.

worse thing i would say, is that i dont
see my friends as often and doing
homeschool is a drag ...
best thing, o have my son to love and
cuddle, and to see him give me cute loving
smiles.. hes also brought my family to
accept shawn as family, they never would
have thought him as family until we had
kids or got married... my family trusts
him alot more now that hes stuck around
with all of this

I'm no longer a teen but I was when I was
pregnant
Worst: having to grow up sooner than you'd
like (getting a job, apartment (if you
live on your own) bills, supporting self
and baby
best: i get this happy toddler (she's
almost 18 months now!!) who doesn't have a
worry in the world
