Another one of my friends is pregnant!
What is going on?
Why are all these young girls getting pregnant?
Is it really that hard to get birth control? I'm not having any problem with it so why is everyone else?
I mean all the fathers are barely in thier 20's! They don't want a kid yet even if thier girlfriend does.
Except for my cousins husband. He wanted a kid and he wanted to get married. And mine and Lady Sickness's friend Angie's husband, he wanted to get married, but I'm not sure if he wanted a kid. But everyone else isn't married and sometimes isn't even dating!
Does anyone else notice it seems to be a fad with teens to get pregnant these days?

Don't really know if it's a fad or not.. but I do think it's odd that women these days feel this need to be a mommy so young.. I guess it's the biological clock saying that they need to mother something soon before they get too old. Although.. I think waiting is important, I don't want to have to make a child deal with poverty neutral

Im only 19 but if I had a guy who was making enough money to support me and a child and we had our own place and we're planning on getting married Id keep the kid if I happened to get pregnant. But I wouldn't be trying! I want to live my life, enjoy being young and start a career that way even if Ihave a guy who can support me Ican still supprot myself and a child if things ever went bad. Allmost all the girls I know who are pregnant still live at home with thier moms who still take care of them, and all of them but 1 are high school drop outs who don't work. I find it unfair to the child.

But I wouldn't be trying! I want to live my life, enjoy being young and start a career that way even if Ihave a guy who can support me Ican still supprot myself and a child if things ever went bad. Allmost all the girls I know who are pregnant still live at home with thier moms who still take care of them, and all of them but 1 are high school drop outs who don't work. I find it unfair to the child. Apart of life is living it when your young, otherwise you regret all the things you didn't get to do. Mooching off your parents is a bad idea. Parents need space too.. especially after the kids they have spent so much time on. oO Most mothers that stay with their parents for support end up being spoiled, and don't learn the real responsibility of having a child.. it's sad because they usually do not know how to take care of their children. Not working further enforces that they don't understand what real life is. And dropping out of school is bad.. What sort of role model are they being for their kids? What happens when the kid wants to learn something, and can't depend on their parent to do so? Most kids that don't get a real relationship with their mom, and dad are the same kids who have mental disorders, abandonment issues, or heck.. they get depressive easily. I know a few of my friends who are like that, that have problems that stem from their parents being ******** ups. It's irritating to see those things.. you need a license to drive. But to have children? To bring sentience into existance? All you need for that is a guy and a girl.. there's no testing, no qualifications, just.. whatever someone wants. This goes even further than that too.. what happens when they scrimp on things, or depend on the government for their mistakes? I think waiting it worth it.. I want to be a good parent. I still hate people for that.. how they can get pregnant with jerks who end up running away from what they started. ><

My best friend got pregnant at 16...and another one my friends got pregnant a few months after (on purpose...) because she thought a baby would keep her and her boyfriend together. I guess it helped because they're married now, but it's still a stupid reason to try and get pregnant.
I think people are plum crazy.

I think it might also be the return of the pendulum as i like to say...
from an extreme to another.
I dont know for you guys but i know that my generation was lucky to be born at all. My friends and i were all miracle babies, born from parents over 40, and i think that might be a reason we tend to want our children younger.
I know i learned a lot from having parents this old, but it was also an impediment, because there is so much stuff i never got to do with them because their health didnt let them, because they didnt have time because of their careers. so much stuff i didnt get to talk about with them, because they lived differently, they didnt have the same kind of experiences when they were my age and everything....
anyways, i think we dont want our kids to have this type of problems. Of course, it might mean that we wont have as much financial ease, but i think the quality of the time passed with the kids will suffice.....
As for teen mothers living with their own parents, thats just breeding future social assisted people... (sorry if it sounds harsh, but i think it is totaly irresponsible.)

I think a lot of girls don't actually realize that once they have a kid, things will change. You're not just responsible for yourself anymore, but another human beings life is pretty much in your hands.
I know of some girls who think, "Aww, babies are so cute! I wish I had one!" then they go out and when they do get pregnant they finally start to realize all the other little things. Sure babies are cute, but will take up the majority of your time once they're born. Are you ready for that (financially, emotionally, physically...)? A baby isn't just something you play with in your free time. It annoys me when people don't 'plan' for a baby. Like, they don't save up some money for when the baby is born, etc, etc.
Sorry if this seems like babbling. Haha. blaugh

Lady Sickness Wait a minute, wait a minute... Angie's married and pregnant??? eek Yeah, she never told me she got married! She didn't tell alot of people. She thought we'd all hate her.She said she was moving cause she had to, her family was saposively forcing her to move, it was accually because she was getting married. But she married her former ex Matt. She talked about him all the time around me and always told me never tell Fuzz I'm seeing him, he'll hate me. Guese who I found she was married from? Fuzz.... It kinda hurt my feelings she told me all about thier relationship and to keep it a secret yet she didn't even tell me she was getting married to this guy, she knew I was ok with them dating! And she called me about 3 weeks with news she was pregnant.
