I hate that there are so many girls out there that tell me "oh i will never get pregnant" and then BAM they are pregnant. it is stupid! I want to be someone who goes around to every high school and explain to them what it is really like. All these girls think it would be sao great, well newsflash, ITS NOT! i ended up loosing my family, my home,my friends, and my education because of it. I no longer get to hang with my friends on the weekend. Or buy all those "in style" clothes. Instead i have to spend over $160 on 9 cans of fuormula that my daughter goes through in less than a week. and like 30 dollars on enough diapers to last me for MAYBE a month. they all think the father will help and stick around WRONG ANSWER i am lucky to have my baby's daddy but there are alot of issues because of it. Coming from a teen mother that cares BE SMART IT ONLY TAKES ONCE. sex isnt as great as everyone makes it seem. so enjoy your life and dont make sex a part of it till you are truly ready for it.

What would these teens do if they had a preemie? Or what if they had to deal with a special needs child? I highly doubt that it would get the care that would be needed.<br/><br/>There was a young girl in my pod when Ashton was first born. The mother was only 14. She was just so immature. I remember the first time she got to hold her son, I was so jealous as I hadn't got to hold Ashton yet. It bothered me to see her in there. I overheard her telling the nurse that was on that she couldn't wait until her son was old enough to take him to the mall. What!??! I almost lost it. <br/><br/>These girls need to think before they run out and have sex with whoever they feel like it. Raising a baby takes a lot more than feeding and playing dress up with them.
