Teenage Pregnancy?

Question: What do you think about teenage pregnancy? What is wrong with you people, I understand teen pregnancy is wrong but its not to the poing that your parents should beat you for it. I think teenage moms made a mistake but i dont think it is for people to talk shi* about them. Everyone makes mistakes in life and you learn from your mistakes, and yeah the bible says that you shouldnt have sex until marriage but if we listen to the bible only 95 % of the people will go to hell. Not everyone stays virgin until marriage. No one even knows who wrote the bible and i dont think you should judge a person because they made a mistake or there age. I know many teenage mom, and let me tell you that they act more mature then moms who had their kids and are old. I mean you should really think about what your saying. You guys make me sick. Even god forgives people mistakes, and you guys are no one to judge anyone. I am 23 but im just talking in general, i had my sleep4you.com/sleep.php/84/baby.html'>baby when ni was 16 and i acted more mature than any women any age.

Answer: I believe that age is usually just a guideline for maturity, however as with most rules there are almost always an exception. I have friends in their late to mid 20's & 30's that I would not trust with my child, and yet there are many teenage baby-sitters in my area that seem to have a grasp on basic child care. So do I believe that there is a magic number and special cut off age that says you will either be a good parent or a bad one? NO! Do I believe that the majority of teenagers are ready for parenthood? NO! There are just so many factors that come into play when you are considering having children at a young age, such as the teen years... Those who got pregnant without considering the thought are even more worrisome given the fact that they never even thought about the consequences of their actions! You will either sink or swim! They are not many ways to tell which group you fall under, because there is no certainty as to the circumstances of your pregnancy! Most people take for granted a healthy pregnancy & child. I guess the key points to discuss, for anyone at any age regarding pregnancy, would be: Relationship status: That doesn't just mean boyfriend or husband but your family status as well. Are your parents going to be supportive, or at least helpful & understanding? Is the guy in you life going to stick around or at the very least keep his end of the financial burden that comes with having children? How would you feel if your teen was pregnant??? Financial status: Are you working, do you have an income to pay for living & medical expenses and basic childcare needs, diapers, clothes, wipes, medicines??? Where will you live? And what happen if the child has special needs, that require expensive on-going medical care, or surgeries etc.??? I do not believe that most teens have children for the best reasons. Most teens want a baby! Or say they need someone to love them. So having the baby has become a selfish want of that person. Well, babies take a lot more love than they give...I have a 3 year old whom I had at the age of 22 with my husband of 2 years! Even under the ideal circumstances it has been a difficult journey to find balance & accept the sacrifices that come with children. A baby is only a baby for about a year... then they are a child! I think that when two committed people can say they are ready to put themselves last, to want to spend their days listening to Barney, looking at poop, pee & barf, getting up 2,3,4 times in the middle of the night, only then will you truly appreciate the tender, loving, playful moments that come with children. Again do I think teens that have children can be good parents? YES! Does that seem to be the trend GOOD TEEN moms? NO! I think the women that make up "most" of the best moms are the ones who wait until the appropriate time to have children, because they like themselves enough to give themselves the time, it takes to grow into the loving mother stage, and they don't have the child to keep a guy or prove that they could do it just because someone said they couldn't! They had a child because that is the fruit that comes when to healthy stable people fall in love. This is a subject that can be up for great discussion, and not easily briefly discussed! There are still many other factors when talking about teenage pregnancy!

Question: what are your thoughts on teenage pregnancy?

Answer: I have 2 teenage daughters at home and I pray for them. All I can do is teach them that they are honorable and need to wait for marriage. I pray that if one makes a mistake, I can deal with it. But I would have to let them know if it happens twice, it's not a mistake. Mistakes do happen and no one is perfect, so I would swallow really hard and deal with one pregnancy, but I honestly would be hurt if they did it twice. I agree, teenagers really don't understand what it's like.
