You don't understand, little girl, if you knew half the stuff about raising and taking care of a baby you would of used protection, I thought I knew everything I needed to know aswell, I go to parenting classes to be fully prepared for any type of situation, it's 100 dollars a class, lasts as long as going to school!
You think you know everything you need to know, but you dont even know half of it. Why do you have a car if you don't even have your license yet? Your car has to be in your parents name, do you know how much insurance cost? My car isn't even in my name, it's in my dads, my dad pays my insurance.
Just because you have a niece doesn't mean you can support a baby. I have a niece aswell, she lives with me, but that doesn't mean I could support one, I know how babies act and how they throw fits, how they are needy. That's what i've learned from my niece. You have to be mentally and physically able to have a child before doing so, otherwise you'll be known as an unfit mother and like the case my mom had last week, this 14 year old got her baby taken away because someone reported her, they came to her house within 24 hours and there were bruises all over her child, her fault? Maybe it is maybe it isn't, point is, she's the mother, she still got blammed for it.
You can't rely on people when you have a baby, when the baby is balling it's eyes out because of gas or upset belly, you can't hand it to your mom or your dad, a friend. That's not taking care of your responsibility, something you created on purpose, not thinking because you're young and stupid.
I'm 16 will be 17 when I have my child, but my life is over and I know this and realize it, I have already said by to my partying,going out. I had a wonderful modeling career before I got pregnant. I still go to school, i'm not saying you won't finish it, but it's difficult to make time to do so, do you know how much daycare costs? It's 200-300 dollars a week here, you can't be leaving your kid with a friend or your mom, no one treats your kids like you do, your kid will end up calling other people mommy. My niece does to me and my mom!
If your not responsible to use protection, especially on your first time, then your not responsible to have a baby, no way, it's not possible.
You have a lot of growing up to do and you have your whole life to have kids, having a baby is a wonderful experience, but it's not cheap. Think about the hospital costs, you know if you have a boy and you want the baby circumsized it costs 150 dollars here to do so? All the doctor appts you have to pay for, including the medicine,shots. You're in over your head and you don't realize it.
Think about it, I gave up my dream for my child, a dream that was coming true, I don't have a choice, because I don't have the time anymore.
