I got pregnant with my first son when I was 16 1/2 I had him when I was 17 but he was 4 months early I got pregnant with my 2nd son at 17 1/2 and had him at 18 I love my son more than anything , I hear it alot that you can't take care of your baby if your a teen mom , I am lucky enough to have my sons father here very successful man graduated college and works at a hospital and we own the house we are in , I am a college student and work part time and spend my free time with my son he is my pride and joy , I really believe being a good mom depends on your maturity level I won't lie I have a cousin who was young with her first and eventually signed her rights to the guy who was there for her (not the biological father) but he takes care of the lil guy but I seen women in there 30's who abused and neglected there children I dont believe the whole myths if your young, your a bad mother.

Re: Teen Mommy

Sorry, im confused - do you just have one son?

Its great to hear that everything turned out so great for you and you are obviously a very mature and loving mom. I am 15 years old and I have a 4 month old daughter, whom I love more than anything. I also have a boyfriend who is the babys father and he is also very supportive and sa great dad! We have recently found an apartment where we are moving in a few weeks. I hope everything turns out great for all the teen parents out there.
