positive opinions on teen pregnancy?

what are some positive thought/things on teen pregnancy

[--ac-- ♥]

hard to say really., they aqre the same as a 30 year old woman being pregnant. you pretty much share the same ups and downs as someone who is older. there is no positive side to teen pregnancy and there is no real negetive side its whatever you make of it and all depends on how you raise your child.

You get to see more of your child's life. A lot more than someone who had kids at around 40. And you can relate to them more. You'll have more energy for them, like older people won't do as many things as a younger one would do.

I think at least I had my child young enough that I wont be old when they graduate from school. I can also have enough energy to run around after my daughter all day. I got to go to the college and take my high school courses and still graduated with my class even though I took like a year out of school. I got to move out and pay my own bills earlier! Not to many good things about teen pregnancy!

Giving new life is a beautiful thing. Whether your 16 or 35 <3

I got pregnant with my daughter shortly after getting out of treatment for meth and drinking, I was 16. I'd quit doing meth but I was still drinking...I was actually at a party when I got pregnant. If it wasn't for my daughter I would probably started doing meth again and everyting else. Now I'm 18 and have 2 babies, in college, and trying to make something of myself. I am in the best relationship ever. If it wasn't for my babies I would have no reason to stay clean or any reason to make something out of my life...I'm not doing it for me I'm doing it for them. So they have a good life.

It's kinda sad when you think about it, teens have so much ahead of them, yet some throw away their lives because of pregnancy.

i had my first kid at 16 and it made me grow up faster. i think its better at this age cause when your 34 your child will be 18 and leaving home and then you can get your life back on track harder to do that if you have kids at 40 you dont want them at 40 when you could be relaxing and enjoying the rest of your life

Everything happens for a reason. And also teens could still be good parents, not all of them are irresponsible.

[It's a boy!]

I've noticed a lot of teen mothers are more serious about getting school done (college) and worry more about their future, unlike people who are not tied down and slack off and take their time. Teen mothers go and get it done and start their career. The mother can enjoy her baby more and when she gets grandchildren, she will still be young enough to enjoy them.

Honestly there aren't any. If you are in that situation then you have to deal with and hopefully you would deal with it by keeping the baby or giving it up for adoption.

But as far as positive things- I would never judge anyone but I think it should be pretty clear that teen pregnancy is not a good thing.

Before a person becomes a parent the ideal situation is

1. that person have at least a high school diploma if not more

2. a steady job or married to someone that is

3. married- your child deserves both parents

4. health insurance- generally obtained through full-time jobs

5. suitable housing- whether in a good apartment or a house

Remember it is not about the teen or the parent- It is what is best for the child. Sure many teen moms can be good parents, but in truth it is much more difficult to be a good parent if you are a teen parent. Children deserve the best whenever possible.

well I dont know anything positive. My best friend is/was pregnat but her mom killed her and throw her on the side of the road.

It's irresponsiable. I mean you can have sex with protection!! I mean there are no posative opinions on teen pregnancy. Conme on!

[♫Bing-O was his Name-O♫]

Well, it is obviously the same process. It is no diiferent for a 14 year old going through it then a 30 year old. I think they can be just as good of mothers as any woman. Teens can love and guide as well as anyone else.

Sure they probably made a mistake but you learn from your mistakes it's all part of life.

[Morgan]

you get to watch little people shows without being judged
other than that theres nothing good about it

[XxThe one they never noticexX]

You'll understand your child more when they make a mistake since you aren't too far apart in age
You'll be around much longer hopefully
You'll know more about their "time"

If you have a baby younger once the baby has grown you still have time to be young.

[Shaena]

its bad for anyone to be pregnant as a teen. they sre nopt financially stable and they souldnt be having sex. and they didnt make a mistake because it wasnt a mistake when they layed down and had sex. point blank

[x.lovebug.x]

I think there is no problem with teen pregnancy.
There are teens out there who are trying to get pregnant and they wouldn't try if they didn't think they couldn't be a mother.
Whether your 16 or 36 you can be as just as good of a mother. At least you can live longer to be with your children and their children and even their children, you have more energy to play and let your children have a happy life.
I see older mums these days looking like its chore to have children, like its a part of life, something they have to do.

[SadAndConfused]

no sorry...bad for the baby bad for the girl
