http://www.funadvice.com/my/advice/lexy725 en-us I agree with foreshadowingb, I was pregnant at 15, and my son is now 7 1/2 years old and is everything to me. I had "some" help with family, but very, very little. I married my son's father and we have been together ever since. He has a great job, and we have had more children since. I am currently taking CNA classes and my husband has a wonderful job. Not everyone that has children young don't take care of their responsibilities. I am ashamed of all the people on here lecturing these young girls instead of giving them some good advice. My advice is to find a moment when you feel is a good time to talk to your mom and just tell her. If she loves you, she will help you in any way she can, even though it is not what she wanted for you. And, just a reply to what someone said previously, they have programs for single/young moms to get their GED at no cost. Just to let everyone know... check things out before you run your mouth. And I hope all goes well with your pregnancy, please update and let us know how things are going. lexy725 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 14:03:52 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/im_15_pregnant_and_keeping_it_but 139561 I think by now the baby is born, but I just want to say that I think you are a very strong young lady to have to go through this so early in life. And to those people on here calling you a slut obviously are very ignorant for writing such things about you. People come on here for help, not judgment. But, I am sorry the kids at school are saying things. I am very proud of you for staying in school getting your education. Please update and let us know how your little girl is doing. lexy725 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 13:53:36 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/what_do_i_do_168995 139551 I think that you just need to talk to him about your feelings. Tell your Dad why you like him so much. Parents have a way of being over protective, even sometimes more than other times. I didn't understand this when I was your age, but now I am 23, and my daughters are 3 and 4. I have thought about my experiences, and now I understand why my parents did the things they did and reacted that way. It's just a parents way of being responsible and showing you that they love you. So, try and talk to your Dad like a mature young lady and he will respect you more for being responsible. lexy725 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 12:38:11 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/my_dad_hates_my_boyfriend 139426 I grew up in a bad home life, so I understand how you feel. But you are not "fat" and "ugly" like he says you are. Most people put other people down because they themselves have low self esteem. You need to talk to an adult that you can trust. Either a family member, teacher, or someone that will listen. I agree that family services should be involved, because that is mental and emotional abuse. If you need help, I will be glad to give you some phone numbers. lexy725 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 12:33:07 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/help_me_650 139419 Do not run away!!! I was 15 when I had gotten pregnant with my son. I was so scared that my parents would disown me, but I was really surprised that they were there for me and helped me through everything. I ended up marrying my son's father and my son is now 7 years old and is everything to us. You will risk your health and your unborn babies health by running away. Tell your parents, they will probably be more understanding than you think. They have not noticed the weight you have gained? Have you seen a doctor yet? Depending on where you live, they have free medical care for you and the baby. Please write back and update your situation. I will look up some information on here for you, if you'd like me to. But I was young, I have been there, so I know what you are going through and I know that it is very scary. Lots of Love, Lexy lexy725 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 12:28:59 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/pregnant_387 139416
