Happy half birthday... Haha

reminds me of little children when they pipe in "i'm 6 and a half!"

Hehe damn right.

Thank you =p

Well to add ....I'll be 19 in exactly 3 months from today...Im getting old..It seems weird to think I will be 20 next year...Sheww it seems like yesterday I was 12..And wishing I could drive..

Oh you guys are making me feel so old! (yes, I realize this is a teen forum)

i'm going to be 28 a few weeks after my baby is due. I'll be needing a wheelchair or walker soon!

Lol your still in your twenties...So your doing alright---now when you turn 30 ..Maybe you can feel just a little old..Hehe

so your bday is on feb 26th? Is that right? My bday is on feb 25th and ill be 18 and a mommy too.... Scary thought lol

omg! Young people! On a .T.E.E.N pregnancy forum? The shock! Who would have known the term teen pregnancy entailed being young!

Hahahaha, .Tanya duhh, teen means in your 30s &married! Because that's the only way to do it! That's the absolutely only way its acceptable to be a mother &have a family!

true we should probably all go kill ourselves, I mean we'll probably all end up in jail for trying to keep our babies warm in the oven and shaking them because it makes them happy.

me.

I am in college, and I work 2 jobs, I have a 4 month old son and have what i'd call a pretty dang good life compared to a lot of people.

Life is what you make of it, you either choose to become something or you don't, even though it is hard when your a teen mom it is still very very possible. =)

so would you consider your own mother succesful who had a baby at 18?

My cousin. She's a doctor now, actually.

My best friend. She's only 16. Has a job, goes to school, raises her daughter on her own.

That question is ridiculous, anyway. For every 1 woman who is successful after having a child at/under 18, there is 1 more who isn't successful. What you're suggesting is that anybody who has a baby when they're young isn't going to be a good mother, or have a good, prosperous life. &.That is just absurd.

lmao!!!

who said anything about fun? It's life. You know, you live it. You do what you have to do to have a good life. Heaven forbid that some people are mature enough to deal with the consequences of their actions &have a good life! What?! No way. I'm pregnant, .I'm 19, .I'm getting married, .I have a good life. I don't understand why it's so hard to believe that some people can &will be good successful mothers at a young age.

my parents are divorced? My mom cheated on my dad, my dad cheated on my mom. It has nothing to do with how much they love eachother, because their actually getting back together.

I am engaged and am getting married very soon, I am only 17, almost 18 and teen parents have a bad name just because some girls don't think they can make it when they've had a baby, they give up easy because it is really doing it hard.

Minimum wage is better than nothing at all, at least some girls actually try. Tanya is doing all she can do, she is doing one hell of a good job. You can't judge teen moms just because very few f*ck up, I know a lot of teen moms that have become very successful in life and are doing great. Like I said...

Life is what you make of it!

i've told you a million times I don't care haha. My parents business doesn't affect me in the least. My mom also finished college after having me and my sister, and yes my brother who you insult her for giving up for adoption when she was 18. Look both our mothers had babies at 18, my mom put her son up for adoption, your mother kept her son. Both were hard paths, a teenage mom getting through schooling and a teenage mom being brave enough to give her baby up. I don't care i'm not playing this comparing game. Grow up, insulting my moms job. I don't care what she does, I haven't lived with her since I was like 13 holy sh*t. I didn't live with her because I didn't like her and I think she's sort of crazy. So how is it going to insult me if you insult the mother I don't even have a relationship with? It's not. I don't care.

Adoption isn't a bad thing either, it's actually really doing it wonderful.

I had a baby at a really young age, a girl. I gave her up for adoption and that's the best choice i've ever made in my life! I don't regret it one bit. It's 100 times better than getting an abortion, and if anyone ever b*tches about how messed it is to give a child up for adoption, then you are a doing it psycho.

But thats the thing, not every junior in high school gets pregnant. But things happen. No matter how much you disagree with teen pregnancy, it's always going to happen. &.The help is there for people who need it. Why is that so horrible?

Carla I just want to tell you you are really changing the world here tonight on this forum and everyone is taking to heart every word you've said and you aren't pathetic for even coming here in the first place.
