all of us has a different POV, you ought to not call the teach stupid. I esp. enjoyed Catelyn's scenes. teen mothers are irresponsible.. they are not stupid, they have made a mistake.. i think they greater suited study their lesson. fact television shows do not unavoidably attain an success such as you pronounced - definite, you're clever for thinking of that concept, however that is noted as "fact" television teach. They partly do have a objective - like, get a solid activity, and teach you what may be the purely right thank you to do it in case you're a young person mom, and so on. Their objective is to coach females to not be pregnant at sixteen - their message is: you will remorseful approximately it. besides the actuality that I won't get purely right answer, i'm hoping my answer reaches an contract with some human beings :P

It's just a stereotype. Some people can't get over the fact that you're a teenage mother, they say things like "you lack mental maturity until 25!" or "teenage pregnancy costs taxpayers 11 billion each year!". They can't get over the fact that we're individuals who had sex, and that it can happen to anyone who does. They think that it's easy to group us all together, despite the fact that we come from all sorts of backgrounds, families, races, and social classes.

Don't listen to them. Use that negative energy as encouragement to prove them wrong. I too became a mother at fifteen, and I just recently finished high school and will begin college this fall. I used to be a disaster prior to getting pregnant because I was depressed and suicidal. My daughter is my strength and motivation to pursue post-secondary education and attain my dream career. She's not an obstacle, quite the contrary, without her I don't know where I would be today, probably dead.

My opinion on teenage mothers is no different than my opinion of older mothers. I can't tell if they were raped or not, I can't tell if they're still with their child's father or just escaped an abusive relationship, I can't tell if their parents are helping them, if they have the income for their children, or if they are still in school. I just see a girl with a baby, and I only hope the best for her. No judgement, if I have the opportunity to talk to her individually then I'll offer advice on breastfeeding, juggling homework and an infant, childcare, relationships, or anything that she's questioning. Sometimes, a teenage mother just needs a friend, since so many people hate us.

These people are ignorant, end off. I'm 16, and although I'd never have a baby at my age, the only teen Mum's I judge are the ones who pop them out, lumber them on their family members and are getting drunk and drugged up to their eyeballs. I wouldn't judge you. You sound like a great Mum. Anyone who gives up the booze and drugs and weed for their kid, steps up and actually looks after their kids, gives them a good home life deserves to be a parent - regardless of if you are 15 or 80 years old. Ignore those people, they're just too dense and stupid and live their lives judging people and thinking everyone is a stereotype. As long as you realise you're doing a good job then that's all that matters!

Maybe those people were also teen moms and their life went down the drain after they had their kids. It can also be that you haven't done anything to make them think differently. That along with the fact that some people will always think the worst of you no matter what you do.

I'm not a teen mom and I get the whole "you're a bad mom" from other people. It's mainly from old people and they give me that crap because I'm not raising my child like how they want me to. So don't worry about people telling you that you're a bad mom. It's not because you're a teen mom, it's because you're a new mom and people think you're too stupid to know any better.

Im sorry to say its going to keep happening. I had my baby boy at 14 and everywhere I go, people make faces, call me a slut, tel others not to associate with me, and so on.. but what they don't know is that i am doing something with my life. Im a junior in high school, I am not the best student but my gpa is a 3.2, I dont rely on my parents to look after my son, I am not on welfare or anything like that. I work for what I have. Its not much but I earned it. And trust me when I say that three years ago, I was a mess... always high, always drunk, my life was a mess and I gave not a single damn. One day I missed my period and I knew that there couldnt have been any other reason for that so I took a test. And it was positive... I thought my life was over at that moment but I realized that if I continued like thar, my life WOULD be over. Go after your dreams. Go to college. Do something with your life. Dont let anybody tell you that yu cant finish school just because you had a kid as a teenager. Most importantly, don't give up. Al those people who say things to you can go ***** themselves. They are probably judging you by what they see on t.v. but that isn't what it is like in real life.... well, good luck with your baby!

I don't think it's an advisable life plan. Having children before age 25 (when your brain has completed emotional development) puts a strain on parent(s) and child, and is not an ideal situation. No, that doesn't mean I will downtrod teen parents. Yes, that means I will strongly advise against all under-25s wanting kids.

I'm 18 and I am currently babysitting my friends (also 18) 8 week old baby.

Just after 7 hours I am so tired and I've really done nothing.

Props to the good teen mothers.

Sucks for them. Don't get pregnant. But to late for you-- you're happy now but I know it would **** **** up if I got my girlfriend pregnant.

I think they're stupid, as are teen dads.

“I haven’t seen you in these parts,” the barkeep said, sidling over and above to where I sat. “Repute’s Bao.” He stated it exuberantly, as if word of his exploits were shared by settlers hither multitudinous a firing in Aeternum.
 
 
He waved to a unanimated butt beside us, and I returned his gesture with a nod. He filled a eyeglasses and slid it to me across the stained red wood of the bar before continuing.
 
 
“As a betting houseman, I’d be ready to wager a above-board bit of invent you’re in Ebonscale Reach for the purpose more than the carouse and sights,” he said, eyes glancing from the sword sheathed on my with it to the salaam slung across my back.
