Q: Am I a Bad Sister?

asked by: TheDevilNamedAngel on December 17th, 2005

My name is kisha I am 17 years old I am engaged, and 18 weeks pregnant. I live in k-town and take care of a few people here. You know help them keep there life on track and what not.

After dating my bf for 5 months we decided we both wonted a child of are own. So would say it wasn't the best choice to make in my life. I am now 18 weeks pregnant an I just found out that my little street sister might be pregnant. She is dating a vary good friend of mine, and they haven't been going out vary long. My little sister lives on the streets and her bf lives at home with his rents.

Im worryed that she doesn't know what she is geting her self into and how hard it can be. Was I a bad big sister by getting pregnant myself? Did I set a bad exzapal for her?

I now know myself that keeping this baby is going to be hard for me and my love to do. Hes the only one who works and there isn't all that much money goming in. 1200 a month isnt much to keep a family going on.

How hard is it going to be for my little sis with her in school and her bf not having a job?

Well... I guess she could go to a special school for pregnant girls, like I go to and she'd get out of school early each day and she could have a job too to bring in some money and he needs to get a job. You aren't going to be able to raise a child without any money unless his parents are giving u everything you need, but I don't think thats very responsible.. If you're going to bring a baby into this world you need to step up and do things to take care of it urself and not rely on other people :) btw where's she going to live once the babys born?

But as for you I don't think you're a bad sister. A baby is never a mistake you'll ge through it. I'm sure it could have waited but as long as you try your hardest you can make it :)

good luck,
brianne

Well mines not just for pregnant girls but the reason I found it was because my best friend started going there. You could probably go to the principal of your school and check into it, because with my school you have to get a referril (sp?) from the principal or a counselor to be able to go. So i'm sure if you asked a teacher or someone from your school they could help you find one in ur town :)

No I do not think you are a bad sister. But you should talk to your sister..Have a good talk about how hard it is for you to be pregnant so young. You should be there for her..And be positive! Good luck hun

Hmm I really have no idea...
Maybe go to the school district? These schools are under the same district as public schools (usually) so you could check into it and get more info from them. Good luck :)

and sweetbabyrae is right, you should have a long talk with her and let her know the facts but also that you're gonna be there for her :d
