I've been where you are at only younger than you. I had my son when I was 14 turned 15 yrs old 5 days after he was born. It was very hard...and just like Vilette says...my son made me grow up fast. I missed out on alot of things and also had to drop out of school to take care of him because everyone had to work but I didn't let that bring me down. As soon as I got the help I was able to go back to school and now I have a great job and own a home which is a huge accomplishment for me. I thank God that my family was supportive and my sons father as well (we are not together but we have a great relationship til this day). This is why you need to tell your parents.
It is very hard being a young mom but if you decide you want to keep the baby I'm sure everything will work out for you. Just remember its not the end of the world...you are not the first and will not be the last teen mom so please don't look down on yourself. |
