Quoting Bouta-Bear1994: "no guy wants a girl with a kid"

thats not true, my SO is only the father of the baby i'm pregnant with I have kids that arn't his i've been with him for two years, don't sell yourself short, there are plenty of guys who don't care if you have a kid,

I also disagree with that. I'm only 19 and I've found people my age who want a relationship with me, I mean, I go for the older guys a bit more, more the 23-27 range just because they tend to be a bit more prepared than some one my own age to take on a child being involved in the relationship. But I also try to keep my son out of it as much as possible.

I GOT PREGNAT WHEN I WAS 16 AND I THINK THAT IAM DOIN A GOOD JOB WITH MY BABY I NEVER ASK MY MOM TO WACTH HIM TO GO TO A PARTY, AFTER WE HAD THE BABY WE COULDNT GO TO A PARTY LIKE A NORMAL TEENAGER AND I WILL NEVER ASK HER AND I DONT TRUST BABY SITTERS THAT MUCH

You don't need the caps lock on for every word. Jesus.

i did it because i want lol

Quoting A M B E R:" Well I find with most people being a teen mom does make a difference in a lot of aspects. I found one ... [snip!] ... and party all week and some one commented "shouldn't you be with your son" she said "my mom said I could have the week off""

I know a 24 year old mom that would have me babysit for her every weekend so she could go out and party and not take responsibilty, she even had me take her 2 year old a few times for weeks at a time and her new baby whos 6 months old i took her for a few days. It was ridiculous, i know people need breaks because i sure as heck did when i was watching her 2 year old, but she took those "breaks" to make poor decisions.

I'm 18 and a single mom, at first I was really sad but now I've really gotten to love spending all this one on one time with my son.

I'm 19 and a single mom. I would say that at times it can be quite the struggle, however it is well worth it in the end.

Quoting A M B E R:" I`m 19 and have a lot of friends with babies. Most of us are single. Just wondering how many of the teen moms out there are doing it alone. It`s hard being a single mom let alone a young single mom."

im 15 and a single mother..it was hard but my baby girl is first than anybody  

I am quite happy to get such positive feed back, I just know so many moms who put being young before their child. Like I know of a girl from my town who lost custody to her first two children, she's now 20-21 and pregnant with baby #3 and it's like...stop...you cant' even take care of the first two! -_- some people.

I am 17, a single mummy to a 15 month old little boy
