How old is your "man"? Usually that takes years of experience, right?

And wow... you've been pregnant 5 times by 19??? How do you even have time to work with all that humping? Jesus christ.

hes 24 no where he works they train you   and you do one thing at a time luckily he has had experience he knows most of the stuff already but to get a master degree is what takes the longest you can be certified in no time

I would have to say you're an exception then. It's not impossible, but MOST teen parents are not lucky enough to fall into a decent job. Most rely on WIC, food stamps, Cash aid, Medicaid, etc. So good for you if you can do all that on your own without any assistance.

just be careful next time you knock us teens down because there really are people that try!

No one is knocking teens. lol. I specifically said that statistically, older parents are better because they are more stable and emotionally mature. Never once did I say that it couldn't be done. Just be careful next time you read into things and put words in people's mouths. ;)

i wouldnt say either were better parents iv seen some older parents be horrible to there just as well as some teens but in some cases teens are better and some cases older parents are theres always gonna be thoes people that will never grow up and there are people that have to grow up alot faster then they should so it goes both ways... and sorry if i read wrong im not trien to start any thing just proving a point is all

Statistics aren't opinions.

i was on birth control and it still happened its gonna be hard but i can handle it! so what i may only be 19 but atleast im the one raising them its not as hard as they make it sound its only hard when you make it that way

What birth control were you using? Did you have them one after the other? I'm actually curiuos not being a bitch or anything. I'd understand one time but 3/5 times .. that's bull. Having a child is not that hard, specially if you're financially ready but I still wouldn't want to have 3 or 5 (how many it is that you have) at 19 .. that's just too much mental, physical, emotional and financial work. Plus I'd be too worried about finishing college & starting my career. If it's hard going to school, working, being a wife & being a parent with one child I can't imagine with that many. If you're able to handle it, power to you! Like I said though, I'm glad I'm not you .. I don't think I would nor do I want to find out if I could handle that.

i was on sprintech im not sure how you spell it but its a pill and i never missed them because i wasnt ready for another one.... i have two that are alive and im pregnant again i got lucky and finished school early because i was home schooled... yes it is very stressful alot of the times rite now the two that are alive are 1 and 2 they are 15 months apart and im pretty sure no matter how old you are its probably gonna be stressful lol its hard but its not as hard as every one puts it off to be

I was 17 when me & my Husband had our first baby. I know Im way younger than you but we put him first & do whats best for him(: . Im a mom & proud of it. Just dont let other peoples labling distract you.

I was 17 when I got pregant, turned 18, graduated high school, had my baby girl and got a job 4 weeks after giving birth to my daughter... My daughter is my number one priority! My SO and I BOTH work everyday to give our daughter everything she needs   Im 19 now and guess what....we are trying for our 2nd!!! You can be 19 with two kids and be a better parent than some 30 year olds with 1 kid. If you act like an adult, and youre responsible....age has nothing to do with being a good parent, long as you got your smurf together
