well it's really really hard to raise a child at such a young tender age!! are you still with the guy or was it just one of those things that kinda happens, no offense. if you're mature enough to handle taking care of a child and pretty much giving up the rest of your teenage years then it's ok. but regardless there's really nothing you can do about it you're pregnant and you have to deal with it. good luck to you and your baby |

That's actually really good, for a few reasons:
1. You won't have that much of a generation gap with your child;
2. He/she will be fully grown while you're still in your mid-30's;
3. It teaches you alot of responsibility at an early age;
There's alot of other reasons, and you'll find them. You should at least talk to your parents about it, if you haven't already. But don't let anybody else try to talk down to you for this. Like *they* make all the right decisions?? Teenagers aren't stupid. There's just jealous people in the world that like to feel better about talking down to kids, like they're so much better. good luck! |

Well it depends on how you deal with it and what sort of support you are getting from your family. It's bad in the sense that, if you decide to keep it, you'll be raising a child at the same time that you should be finishing school and finding a career, which can be very stressful. But if you have a supportive family that can help you watch your child and teach you how to take care of it, or if your school system has a good child-daycare vocational program, you should be able to manage--as long as you remember that you'll be called upon to grow up a few years in a few months, and will have to switch most of your socializing time to baby time.
But having a baby at any age can be a joyful and rewarding experience, and this should be the attitude that you convey to your child as he or she is growing up--even when he's very young. You don't want him to say later, my mother didn't want me, I was nothing but a pain to her. Always behave in a way to your child that makes him think he was a gift to you--even if that's not always how you feel. |

It really doesn't make a difference to me, I don't judge. It's just something I wouldn't go around bragging about though. |

You have to decide how to handle it. It's gonna make your life a lot more difficult no matter what you do. Remember it is your life, not someone else's. |

Its nor good or bad, you can't change what has already happen. Its just going to be a little harder and your future plans will be on hold for a little bit. But with a loving and supporting family youll be just fine. If you love the guy whos your childs father, then stay with him. But don't stay with him if he hurts you, lies, or cheats on you. I stayed with my childs father for four years and he was abusive to me and I stayed with him because I thought thats the way its supose to be but one day he almost put me in the hospital and I finally decided to leave because I didnt want my baby think thats how a man is supose to treat a women. Just use your common sense and follow your heart and never do anything you dont want to just to keep a guy happy. Good luck and email if you ever need to talk. |

its only good if you R marred B/C if your not then you are going agents the word of god and then that is a bad thing. If you aren't marred then you should if you feel like you and him are ready for that and if not then you need to except the responsibility for this person you have made and to raise it right. If you pray to god for help he will be with you the hole way! I wish you the best of luck! and i will keep you in my prayers! |

I'm sorry honey. That was me at 16 too. It can be done if you really want to. But it's WAY hard to do. Especially if your parents won't support you. Generally, the babys dad won't stay around more than a yr. or so. So, pretty much know that you will be on your own in this endever. I gave my girl up for adoption after a yr., hardest thing I ever had to do too. But, she is 14 now, and thanks me everyday for the life I was willing to let her have by letting her go. She is in Idaho, I'm in San Diego, but we talk on the phone every other day or so. I'm glad I did what I did in the end. I know other girls who kept the baby, and they are STILL struggling to get thier life on track. They will be trying to catch up for some time to come. You need your parents to support you. Talk to them. Ask what their advice is. I wish you all the luck in the world sweetie. Your life will be different forever no matter what you choose to do now. |

Well, if you have someone to support you and you are happy about this, then it is good. If you are alone and feel trapped or helpless, tell someone and get someone to help you thru this. You are young to be in this situation, and a friend would be the best thing in the world, along with a good doctor. Good luck. |

I think you should be worrying about what you are going to do, how you will provide for the child and if you are mentally prepared--you should already know that its not good--you are most likely in school-live at home and have no idea how your life is getting ready to change. You should tell your parents if you haven't and start making some of the most important decisions of your life. Good Luck |

well sweety can't say good or bad...just hope that u have a good family that will support u through this...But what ever u do..make sure u get a high school diploma...that is a must |

that is bad, because u r not well prepared in ur economic condition, neither pshychological condition , nor physical condition of ur body.
If its not even one month have an abortion, or take guidance from ur parents and its better to marry soon with ur guy who made u pregnant and have regular consultations with the doctor |

Not a good situation... you're not finished w/ high school, you're not going to have a social life, you're going to lose your youthful figure, you'll probably be on welfare which means WE responsible adults who didn't screw up our lives are going to have to support you and your child, you're going to learn how to say "no, sorry, I don't have enough money to buy you that sweety," kids ask for things and cost a lot of money to take care of.... get the point? or shall I keep going? |

not good, talk w/ your parents.
you need to worry about growing into an adult for now. don't worry, life starts to make sense at 25. till then nothing you do will seem to go right.
don't call 1-800-Dr Laura. |

it's kind of good and bad because 16 is a very young age to be having a baby. The reason it might be a good thing is because if you are having the baby with a person that cares for u and u care for him. |

The fact that you even ask the question is proof that you are not mature enough to be a parent. But then, very few, if any, 16 year olds are mature enough for the job. And it IS a job! I am 51 and have 3 children and 7 grandchildren.. and I am not always on top of the game myself. You aren't an adult yet. Yes, your body works is all the grown up ways. All the parts work .. obviously.. but your thoughts and maturity and reasoning processes don't have enough experience and learning to deal with parenthood. Being pregnant at 16 only means that you can have sex. It does not mean you are an adult. Advice? Unless you have very strong beliefs or opinions from family members otherwise, there are millions of responsible adult couples who cannot have children.. who would give anything to be good, loving and responsible parents. Consider adoption as an option to raising a child in a situation which, many times, simply brings on a repitition of itself. What can you offer the child in your present situation? Do you have the means to provide all the things that a baby.. then a child.. needs.. not to mention all that they want? clothes? toys? doctor visits? just for starters.. and don't think that relying on public assistance will be the answer. It isn't. You will always be dependent on an agency that wants nothing more than for you to get off the public assistance, and will never ever give you what you need to live a comfortable life. Your child will grow up thinking that living on public assistance is the ONLY way to live and will live the same way.. is that what you want for your child? Please think very long and hard about this. It is a child's life and future you are dealing with. That child deserves nothing less than the very very best. |

This is not something good and not the worse thing that can happen. In order to make the best out of the situation is to take ur responsiblities im sorry to say u will have to beome more muture and become an adult faster then u want at 16 u should be worried bout going to parties and movies with friends turning in homework and stuff not taking care of a baby, this is going to be a hard time i know, but always remember everything happens for a reason, im not saying that u was suposed ta have a baby at 16 but think bout your life before now before u got pregnant, if u wouldnt got pregnant think where u would be as of right now, then 5 years from now, then 20, im pretty sure u can understand what im getting at. |

sixteen is too young to have a baby. You are still a baby. Talk to your parents. The best thing you can do for yourself and for this baby is to put it up for adoption. There are wonderful couples out there who very much want a baby to raise in a loving home. It won't be easy--doing the right thing is usually harder than doing the wrong thing. You have your whole life ahead of you, when you are older and have a great husband, then you too can raise kids in a good home. |

I am going to be honest with you. Pregnant at age 16 I think it's not bad but not good either. I think at the age of 16 noone is ready to be a parent. I do hope you have the support of your parents because you are going to need it. |
