Advice on how to tell mum im pregnant and 14

Heyy

I’m 14 and I have a boyfriend that is 17. I have always wanted to have a baby. I know I could handle caring , supporting and loving for a child. I had a pretty rough life and was raped several times when I was younger and mum still not knowing. My mum that is parted from my dad is against me on having a baby at any time soon , I know shes right in a way but it can be possible to live a happy life going through pregnancy at a young age. I dont want to break her heart to tell her that I’ll be pregnant , she’ll totally disown me. I know I could achieve anything I want in life but having a child is everything I could ever want , someone to love and someone to get loved by. All I ask of her is to be supported by her but can’t seem to reach out to her. Too top that my dad had said he did’nt want anything to do with me if I had turned to pregnancy so I need advice to reach out to her and tell her my life is not exactly over if I got pregnant and to try and make her see things from my point of view as well.

Answer #1

OMG! 14 and wanting a baby? are you insane? I have a son who is 13 1/2 and would be put in a mental ward if he got a girl pregnant. Do you really think your boyfriend wants a baby at 17 even? Get a clue and wait a while hun, your a baby yourself and have a lot of growing up to do!!! Enjoy life for a while!

Answer #2

having a child is everything I could ever want , someone to love and someone to get loved by get a puppy. don’t bring a baby in this world when you KNOW you can’t support it.

my life is not exactly over if I got pregnant hate to break it to you, but yeah, your life will be over. you f*cking dumb naive child. USE YOUR BRAIN.

Answer #3

Sorry, but you’re a baby yourself, how are you going to take care of a small needy person? You haven’t even finished school yet, or even have a steady job. Do you know that babies are EXTREMELY expensive to grow, birth, and bring up?? How are you planning on paying for all that? On your parent’s pocket money? Get real.

I think you should read this thread on FunAdvice, it’ll be an eye opener for you: http://www.funadvice.com/q/whats_it_like_giving_birth

Answer #4

Yes you are very young.And what I wanted when I was 14 is not what I whant today at age 22. thethought may be appealing to you but the reality is that you would have to get a job and what gives you the idea that the baby father will stick around for life.Yes this is a life long , forever situation that you will be putting yourself into. Think again I beg you.

Answer #5

I wrote my story asking for advice not to be harassed

Answer #6

OK I don’t want to seem mean but why are u going out with a 17 year old? In some countrys this is illigal and he could go to jail!!! So If this is a law in your country and you tell your mom my guess would be that hes going to be in jail and that babys not going to have a father. You are still a kid even if you think you are ready for a child your not, Your still going through school,hanging with friends and having fun. With a baby you won’t exactly get to have that fun well not until the babys like 5. and what would you do if your mom kicks you out the moment you tell her, you can’t live on the street alone with a baby you would probley both die. Please rethink this!!! Get yourself out of this situation… Maybe give it away to someone who can’t have a child… You don’t need to go through this @ your age babys are worth the wait!!! and I think your 17 year old boyfriend needs a wake up call! He should not be using tou like that! You are worth the wait!

Answer #7

How would you support a baby? Will you work to give it food? Will you work to give it clothes? Will you work to give it a place to live? Will you work to give it water in your house? Will you work to give it electricity in your house?

You’re 14…how would you support a baby? You do understand that your mom will have to support this baby, right? Does that seem fair to her? Do you honestly think that a parent should accept their 14 year old daughter wanting to get pregnant when they know that they are the ones that will have to pay for everything for this baby?

Do you really think that a 17 year old boy is going to stay with you? Think again…he’s not going to want to be tied down to a girlfriend and baby. Come on girl, do you have any idea how many boys run away from the girl when she has their baby?

You know, babies aren’t just about you being able to love someone and someone loving you…if that’s why you want one then don’t do it. You are being completely selfish. Your reasons for wanting a baby aren’t good enough. You can’t even support a baby. You want a baby so someone will love you…do you not understand how selfish that is? Your decision would affect a lot of people so those people should also have a say in this.

Answer #8

well if your already pregnant its pointless saying that you should have done it.. so my advice is to have a heart to heart with your mother. she is still a person and should understand. You will feel so much better telling her everything and she’ll be greatful. Then go through step by step your plans. good luck

Answer #9

Answer #10

I understand I’m 14 and my boyfriend is 17 and I want to marry and have a baby. He feels the same. But I’m afraid that he will go to jail for me being so young and pregnet. I am not pregnet but I want to be. I want to know if me and him could get jobs and save money to go get married secretly and not have him arrested. some people don’t know how much in love me and him are.

Answer #11

are you crazy?? Why you must did that?? Have baby in 14 years old will not be you being loved, and it’s just make your mom angry and your boyfriend just loved your body! Not your baby and not love your heart! If you wanna have a baby wait ‘till you fullu grown, ‘till married, and everyone will be happy about your pregnant
