so a big thing went on last night but it made me think lot and i am not sure if there is another post like this but here it goes.

What do you think of teen pregnancy. Well i guess i should be more descriptive. i saw a 17 year old girl. her boyf riend cheatd on her and she is left with a 6 week old baby boy. BUT. I am really starting to think that sometimes teen pregnancy could be a good thing depending on the pesron. This girl told me before she did drugs and smoked and drank alot..but since she had her baby she is a whole new person. the thing is when you have a baby you dont have to become responsible good mother. you could fuck around and not even care about your child. she changed as a person because of her child and she became another person. yes it does close alot of doors but it also opens alot to ..just diffrent ones.. so what do you think. do you think teen pregnancy is always a bad thing?

i think it has its advatages and disadvantages and it all comes back to the person too. for some people it can be the best life change ever, but for others, it can be the worst. its not something i would encourage as a way to solve someones problems though, thats for sure. otherwise i agree with you kellie.

Generally, I find teen pregnancy to be a PRODUCT of the problems you described. I don't want to offend people that don't have a problem with teen pregnancy or have been in that situation, but I see no excuse for it. I do think it's a bad thing, just because I know either teen parents whose lives have been ruined or teen parents who just go on with their lives and neglect or completely ignore their babies.

I know a girl who has a baby yet she doesn't miss a party and she is literally ALWAYS driving around town. Right after she had her baby, she bought a car for $16,000 and she said she paid for the whole thing. Now I worked at the same place...I know she couldn't afford it. Her "boyfriend" was a rigger...was she taking advantage of that? I personally have a feeling she was selling drugs. How does she afford all of her gas? She's living on welfare, yet she's certainly not suffering. Now, she drives around all the time, with the baby. In a North Dakota winter, it's not too bright to do that. The baby reportedly had pneumonia twice in her first two months. I wouldn't doubt if that baby girl will be deaf in a few years. I can hear her music in my car. I think that's a bit loud and that baby is certainly being neglected.

Teen pregnancy is not a bad thing! Those dumb ass, horny teenagers who have to stick their dick in every hole or those stupid girls who allow this and have unprotected sex deserve what they get. It teaches those irresponsible and largely spoiled pricks what life is like. Get a good taste of it. End rant...
Now for those who took the necessary precautions and wore a condom and every thing but had a kid any ways, my heart truly goes out to them, and I think that it was some thing that didn't deserve to happen to them. Yet it is still a good thing since it helps them grow up and learn about the world(mentioned above).
This is a sensitive subject and please keep the posts a little less extreme than mine :P

Okay, first. USE PROTECTION!
Two, she may have changed but seriously, will that last. I knnow people who have "changed" and become more "mature" and it only lasted a few years.
These teens need to learn how to not get pregnant because most of them can't handle having kids and won't achieve the maturity for some time.

There are disadvantages and advantages. Yes, she has changed since having the baby, but as the baby ages and will become a real pain in the ass, will her changes stay? If she gets stressed enough, will she resort back to her previous ways? As a generalization, I say most teens cant handle the kid. Either one of them leaves the other, 1 wants an abortion and the other doesn't, they're scared to death, and they have to get their families to help care, causing intra and interfamily problems. If you want sex, then put some clothes on junior, the bag for the junk, whatever metaphor you want.

I think that teenage parents are irresponsible. Using contraception is hardly rocket science.
Wear a condom. If it breaks, get the emergency contraceptive pill. If you prefer not to use a condom, utilise one of the other forms of contraception (pill, injection, coil etc.)
If all steps are taken and a pregnancy occurs then there are three routes for a teenager to take. I am of the opinion that only two of them are sensible. Adoption or abortion.

Deserve what they get you seem to be forgetting something the baby is a person just like you and me. It is not a robot it has feeling and can feel pain just like me and you! How would you like to know you are not wanted and are a saturday night special. You would moat likely be abused and mistreated.

Abortion is wrong in every way it is murder that is simple. Adoption is the only way!

The way i see it is it's fine if it's planned and you can make it possible.

If you are willing to give up your time for a baby at a young age then fair enough, I don't like it when people end up with a baby they didn't want and they end up having to put it in care. Having a baby is not an easy thing as a teen, you need money and not all people have a great amount, so they have to stop drinking and smoking and then get depressed because they can't have them.

I'm not talking about everyone here, I think it's good if two people can stay together and raise a child - then the baby grows up to be a happy child.

A lot of you are terribly misinformed. There are probably more screwed up kids with regular parents than there are with teen parents.

I was born when my mom was sixteen, so I saw and went through a lot of the struggles of the whole thing. I've never met my real father since he basically ran away, but I turned out pretty goddamn good through it all. I would say having two parents actually made things worse when my mom married my step-dad. The money and the stress of marriage screwed up my family financially and it's just a crappy situation all together.

I'll probably address some more things as this topic rolls along.

A good marriage that is based on mutal love and respect does not result in an all together crappy situation.
Having two parents with a good marriage and the financial security that comes with a decent salary is the best basis of a home life for a child.
