teen pregnancies are not anything to be proud of!

I was 18 when I had my first and a week after my 20th birthday when I had my second.
Life is way too short to spend time ashamed-it's almost 2012 not 1935 where a young woman was considered a whore even if she was raped and either sent away to give up her baby whether she wanted to or not or made to lie and say her husband died or something-it's not something to proud of, but it doesnt have to be the end of the world-it is however the end of your carefree teenage years. You can still make a life and future for yourself and your child but it will be much harder than if you didnt get pregnant. Harder doesnt mean impossible if a young woman is really determined to give her child a good life

The sheer number of teen moms replying proves my point. Teen pregnancy has now become some misguided badge of honor in society. Sad and pathetic
Well what do you think the answer is? Go back to the days when girls were sent away in shame while the boys that got them that way got off scott free. Get over it that isnt gonna happen. My personal belief is they should wait til they're married but since people generally dont married til they're in their 30's it isnt likely. Girls in this situation have a hard enough hill to climb why kick them all the way up?

I had my son in September I'm 19 years old and not all teen moms think it's glorified I know better but you make it seem like teens are getting pregnant on purpose and it's bulls*** because for most of us I think didn't plan on becoming parent but at least we stepped up and took responibility for it
