I want a baby mature responses only please help!!!

ohk I no this may sound really weird becaus I am only 13, but I want a baby. my boyfreind who I am in love with and I really think its for real. you c his family is very young he lives with his great grandma and his gradma is only 2 years older than my mum (mum is 40!!) and his mum is 26. The only reason why I am not going out and making a baby now is that mum would make me get an abortion, and that would be horrible. But really want a baby I did a babysitting job once and I didnt mind getting up at all hours of the night look after her. And my boyfriend was there with me, cause it was his friends and he was having a sleepova and he said that I would make a good mother. And the thing is I wouldnt mind the pregnacy and birth just to have my own little baby. what SHOULD I DO!!!

Answer #1

Who is going to pay for your medical bills? Who is going to pay for your baby’s medical bills? Who is going to feed this child and keep it clothed and diapered?

Do you or your boyfriend have a good paying job? You can expect to pay out about $11,000 just in the first year alone to raise this baby. Where is that money coming from? Your parents? They raised you - they don’ t have to raise your child - that’s your responsibility.

What happens when your friends want to go out? Are you just going to leave the baby with your parents while you go out and have a social life? Your parents are not your personal babysitters.

Before you run out and get pregnant, you really need to consider all the facts…having a baby isn’t just about ‘aw, how cute’…it’s an 18 year life sentence. Don’t even consider making your parents responsible for all this - if that’s your thought, then you are clearly not ready for a baby.

Answer #2

just imagine the life your baby will have. is that really fair? if you think it is. have a baby. if not, don’t.

Answer #3

13 years old and you want a baby?! you have to put that baby before yourself. how would you support your child? how are you going to get your child to doctors appointments and everything else… you cant depend on everyone else to help you out for the rest of your life. A baby seems like a great idea at times, but honestly take a step back and look at your life as it is, at 13 you cant really work… not like you would need to in order to raise a baby… you’re body isnt ready for the stress of pregnancy or childbirth… theres a serious risk of premature birth, which causes serious medical problems down the line… Im 19 years old & im 8 months pregnant & I thought getting pregnant was the best thing ever, dont get me wrong I love my daughter with all my heart & I wouldnt ever change having her but I wish I would have waited until after I got out of school & finished college & got a better job. I didnt realize until getting pregnant how expencive everything actually is… my husband is in school for truck driving right now just to be able to give our daughter the life he wants to, do you realize what hes giving up? being able to see her everyday, hell even every week… for the first 2 years hes basically just looking at pictures… he will be gone 2 weeks & he’ll get to come home for ONE day, possibly a day and 1/2. You cant tell me your ready to make HUGE sacrafices to be able to raise a child at 13 years old.

Answer #4

I understand where you are coming from. I am 18 years old and I am about to be a mother. You have no idea how much I have already been through. Its not easy at all. I have already had to spend so much money on this pregnancy. yes, it is your body. However, did you know your chance of dying during childbirth are high? Also, complications are likely at your age and may cause it so you can never have a baby. CPS could also tkae your child after its born considering you can not take care of a child.

Answer #5

When you have a baby, you have to get up early in the mornning sometimes. We are talking like 2 am possible because of teething and need of comfort. Sometimes, a baby poops just when you need to go to the store for milk or an emergency. You will need to quit what you are doing and tend to the baby. Is this what you are ready for?

Answer #6

Hey I wanted a baby too when I was 13. You are just starting to get hormones and that makes you want to have a baby. Well I no you want to, but stick with babysetting, that’s what I did. And within a couple years (maybe when you are 15) then you can decide. And tell your mom after you are 4mths pregnant. Thats after the abortion date so you cant get one.

Answer #7

Umm. well this is the adcive I have for you. DO NOT DO IT!!! you are only 13 year old!!! you are too young!!! give yourself a chance to grow up. having a baby that young can ause major health problems. you will be made fun of at school and you will not be able to finish school. let yourself grow up. then decide!!

hope this helped!!!

Answer #8

you do not want a baby at your age .you should stay at school and get a good paid job . I had a baby and I wish I had of waited until I was older I would’nt change them now but think what you are going to do before you do it because this is a realy big thing in life one of the most inportant ones I would say it was for me .

GOOD LUCK .

Answer #9

WOW! I am speechless!!! The bad spelling alone is enough to raise my eyebrows. I was 22 when I had twins. Raising children is the hardest thing that I have ever done!!! STAY IN SCHOOL!!! Get a good education!!! You are only 13 years old. I am so horrified!!! Then you say “mature responses only”!!! Grow up and make a mature decision!!!

Answer #10

If you are thirteen and pregnant there is a lot that can go wrong with your pregnancy and you are much more likely to have a miscarriage and loose the baby. The healthiest age is 24 years old or older to have a child. You are more likely to have a baby with genetic disorders, mental and physical disorders and risk injury to yourself. Its a lot more than just what you want, you have to think about your future child as well, having a baby now would not be responsible and caring to that child if you are that young because of all the things that could go wrong. Don’t be so selfish.

Also if your going to have a baby you need to get married first. If your not married your oh so loving boyfriend could up and leave you at anytime even if you do have a child together. Being a single teenage mom is not what you want for your future.

Answer #11

everybody has there own opinions, mine is that babys are so cute and lovable and if you had a baby you would wanna be with it all the time to see it grow up..u wouldnt be able to watch it grow up ull be in school and if you drop out your ruining more than just your life and more than just your future. every girl wants a baby as a young age but stick with the babysitting job. dont have one of your own. ( at your age its not healthy to have a baby anyways)

Answer #12

it would damage your body to have a child that young. plus it is not responsible to have a child that young. you have your whole life. wait to have a good education, that means college. my cousin is fourteen and pregnant. she is going to put in a juvinile home, and they are going to take the child away because of all the past problems that her parents have had with her. it just isn’t smart, or the right thing to do. their isn’t much else I can say without getting unrespectible about it. All I can say is do the right thing and wait. It’s your choice if the child has a grown up house to live in, and that he/she will have everything she/he will need.

Answer #13

The bad spelling alone raises my eyebrows!!! Despite what I am about to say, I really do wish you the very best. But you are ONLY 13 years old. Give yourself a chance to grow up. You and any baby deserves the right to grow up in an environment that will make him/her flourish!!! A 13 year old girl with a baby, still living at home with her parents, no job, no education, no promises for the future is not a good environment! You said “mature reponses only” Grow up and make a mature decision!!!

Answer #14

What SHOULD you do? Stop thinking about what you want. Because this isnt about what you want. It’s about what is best for a child. And guess what, a 13 year old mother is not what is best for a child. A child needs a mature adult, who can support themselves, as well as a child, and can provide the best possible future. What sort of future are you giving this child with you earning minimum wage because you couldnt finish high school. Stop being a selfish brat and start thinking about the life you want to create. This isnt a puppy you can pay attention to once in a while

Answer #15

thank you everyone… umm that helped but some of those comments hurt.

And p.s what is wrong with my spelling??

Answer #16

I will give you a mature responce young lady. Unless you want to be grounded for a very long time I would reconsider your thoughts on this situation…And if he goes anywhere near you I will bloody kill him…LOVE YOUR MOTHER. Oh and by the way my computer is now out of bounds for you!!!

Answer #17

OH MY GOD WHAT ARE you THINKIN first of all you are only 13 second not being mean but the last lady was right it dont even seem like you can spell very well so you need to work on that before hand third be a child live your life I had a baby when I was 18 and still feel like I missed out on so much why would you even want to have sex at 13 have more self respect once you have a baby no more sex no more romance no more dates cant go anywhere if I were your mom id forbid you to see any boys and send you to reform school

Answer #18

god you make me so angry! im 22 and my hubby is 24 we have a 2 year old both work and STILL find it hard to get everything for her and to pay off our house! you CANT even get a bloddy job let alone money … the baby stage only lasts a year and then you have a toddler who we all know at 13 will not be able to handle…THINK before you do please you have your whole life to have kids . just injoy being a a young teen while you can -u have nothing to worry about in life right now INJOY
