well from my experiences with dealing with kids my moma got 6 gurls and 2 boys and im the youngest gurl and im 17 and ALL of my sisters got more that 2 kids but since you only 14 i think you should get an education first and then wait until you settled down with your self to have a kid cause the things u need to do for a kid is hard trust me i know i aint got none but i've had my nieces and nephews like they was my own and iz hard and plus you gon miss out on life for real. so long story short get a job stay in school get your self together first b4 u do anythang and rap it up

i dont think you should have a baby now there fun and cute and all that good stuff but you need to consintrate on ur studies to if you want to goto college and get a good job but if you think you could do both then i say go for it.. but please donot put it thoough adoption or abortion please im so against that hah. anyways if you do go through with that and have a baby i say you should keep it because it is your child.. but when you goto shcool or something let your mom watch himor her.
hope i helped a lil =]

Having a child is a big step for anyone, any age. At 14 you are WAY too young to even be thinking about it, let alone what the law states! Your mum is in the wrong to use you by saying if you get pregnant she wants it. She cannot have kids, end of! She has you! Your mother should be saying that it is not the time to think about having kids!

I'm 16 and i get broody alot! But it doesn't mean I am definitely going to fall pregnant NOW! There are things to think of.. finance, social life and most of all who is the father of the baby - will he be a father figure to the child, will he love you so the child has a good upbringing?

You have so much to achieve through life, do not let a trendy whim set you back because teenagers get pregnant now so quick either because they do not practice safe sex or because its a craze... a stupid stupid craze

So I advise you to wait till you are older, experience love, heartbreaks and friendship. Experience the outer world

are u serious or what? what kiNd of mother would want her child to have a child? This world is so messed up. Who would want to bring a child into it? And, what do you have to offer your child. You don't even have a job. do you think you will get welfare? Do some research on welfare. There is nothing good about it. I really don't want to pay another cent for someone to carelessly have a baby. NO, IT IS NOT OK TO HAVE A BABY AT 14,24,34, 44, OR 54, ESPECIALLY IF YOU CAN'T TOTALLY SUPPORT IT.
