Excellent point. You can't generalize everyone into one catergory. It may be a struggle, but young moms stilll have a fighting chance.
Glad to hear your parents came around, now i'm not so scared to tell mine...I know they'll freak, but hopefully they'll come to their senses too
best of luck with your pregnancy

Yeah telling your parents can be scary. It would be differnt if u were marriedfor a year or two then your parents would be way more accepting, but if you a teen living at home your parents freak. If I end up being preg, my dad will freak but not say much, its my grandparents who will bite my head off, as for my mom I think she will be the most accepting of my family. I know my brothers will also yell at me. As for my bf's family, that just scares me even more

Hi. Everybody my name is tiffany and I have a 7 month old. He was born april 6, 2005. I have now found myself pregnant again. I was on birth control but I had to stop because it made me so moody and sick. So as soon as I was able to make another doctors appointment for another kind I found myself pregnant. Today I am 11 weeks. I got pregnant with my first when I was 15 I had him at 16. I am now 16 I will be 17 dec. 8. Being a young mom has been hard but also joyful. I love my son with all my heart and I know I would have never been able to give him up or abort him. But hey i'm running around in circles what I started writing for is to tell all of you pregnant or new teen moms there is a great yahoo support group that you should join. I love all the girls on there.

Thanks
Thanks 2 every1 that posted I had my baby nov. 6 he weighed 7lbs 5 oz it was not as painfull as I thought it would be I had no pain meds. I got there at 8am and had him at 10:16 am when I got there I was dialted 8cm so if you want pain meds. Go when you start having contractions well..... I didn't even know that they were contractions ....I was only pushing for 5 mins. Only 5 pushes when they tell you to push make sure you push during a contraction and push till you can't breath no more thats what I did and belive me it worked so if you need any advice or have any questions pm me, and thanks again

Hey...
This is for kimwall...How did you gather up the courage to tell your parents??? Im 16 and about 1 and 1/2 months pregnant (as far as I know) and I really dont know what to say. I still havent decided if I want to keep the baby or not (i know my boyfriend doesnt want me to but yea...). I dont think I can go through an abortion. I really feel strong about keeping this baby. But yea...I just dont know how to go about telling my parents. I dunno how all you gurls have gathered up the courage to tell them?? Please...Write back.

Hey im about 25 weeks and I didnt tell anyone until I was about 4 1/2 months. I was scared to tell my family which who took it really good. And im with my baby's daddy and his family was not so shocked about it neither. Well we've been together off and on for about 3 years, so I think that broke the ice!!! If yall need anythinkg just tell me!!
