hey im evelyn and im 16 and my beautiful daughter is 3 months. today i went out to check my mail and a lady passing by stopped me commenting on how cute my daughter is and then she asked me if it was my baby sister. when i replied it was my daughter she automatically started looking down at me and saying things such as you ruined you life, you have commited a big mistake and sin so u should repent and she even asked me if i would wait while she went to her house while she got holy oil to put on my child. when i said no she started being rude and telling me that me and my child we're going to hell. iam tired of people looking down at me. iam a great mom and my daughter is beautiful and i wouldnt trade her for anything. i dont believe she is a mistake i believe she truely is a blessing. im sorry i just had to vent.
have any of you ever dealt with people looking down on you or judging you because you are a young mother?? because if so how do you deal with it because when she was being rude to me it was one thing but to my innocent baby??? that to me is crossing the line.

Don't you worry one bit about people who are so ignorant and "holier than thou". Sure you were young to become a mom, but sometimes things happen. If you see her again and she makes a comment you might remind her that even Jesus didn't cast stones. ;)

thanks it just rubbed me the wrong way, you kno?
Quoting Clasane90:
I have gotten many looks and people whispering about me. I'm 21 but I look a little younger. But I don't let it get to me. I think of my daughter as a blessing also even tho she was not planned. GOD brought her into my life 4 a reason and being a single mother she is my blessing regardless of anything. If u ever wanna talk just send a message I'm always up 4 a conversation
Exactly, was my daughter a surprise, she definately was but not once did i think of her as a mistake or did i regret her. and thanks same goes to you, i have no friends that are moms so i would like to talk to one who understands what its like. so feel free to message me! :)
Yes. I feel judged. I am 20, with two kids, and twins on the way, and I look younger than I am. I am married, got married at 18, planned my kids, got pregnant after I got married, and we can afford our children very easily. I'm not the average young mother. Ignore the comments, protect your child, and get on with your life.
