Answer #1

You are a LITTLE KID-IN A WAY,A CHILD.U SHOULDNT BE THINKING ABOUT STARTING A FAMILY AT 13.U IDIOT.

Answer #2

Girl, you shouldn’t be bothered about having kids - never waste your life away. Read what the people here on this page has to say about what you want…

Besides, you're too hot to get knocked up... tsk, tsk - beauty like yours would be a waste if you did...
Answer #3

Talk to a school guidance counselor to see if they can help you. Maybe you can still watch episodes of that show on NBC where teenagers were given little kids to take care of. I can’t remember the name of it… Look around on NBC.com to see if you can maybe find it, and see what they have to go through, and realize that you would have to go through the same thing for a lot longer than 2 days. Seriously, talk to a guidance counselor.

Answer #4

You should just try babysitting. Or you can focus on school, and gettng hobbies to help you forget.

Answer #5

talk to someone about that because you dont need to be a mommy rite now your still growing and so is your body. at least wait till your out of high school.

Answer #6

dont become a mum yet there is no rush to get pregnant and you and your child will be a lot better off if you wait a few more years a baby isnt an acessory or toy its not like taking care of a dog its a HUGE responsibility, its a baby human being and one that requires around $10, 000 average in just the first year alone there are a lot of things you need to know about kids before you go off and have one you should have the support of a partner who also wants a child young (which is hard to find) and who will stick by you and pay child support you should know how many things babies can get sick from and how to help them and not just things about diapers, dummys, food, milk, ect there are lots of things you need to learn about a baby also a lot of things you should know about pregnancy and giving birth which can be a painfull and traumatic expieience for a kid as young as you certain foods can actually kill your baby while while its developing smoking and drug use can deform or kill it and secondhand smoke can increase the risk of cot death when its young also, you have little, if no education from school you havent even really stared highschool so you wouldnt know any of this and any real information or expirience exept stuff you got from looking on the internet and theres no youtube “how to” video on raising a kid also you cant expect to go out and get a job with a baby and no education not even part time unless you want to be flipping burgers for $6 an hour and survive on barely any income to get a job and to learn about important information your going to need later on in life you need to go to school and you really need to finnish school and get your certificate that you passed which will make finding a job easier going to colledge and getting a degree in one thing in particular will help you get a job relating to it but if you have a kid at 13 and no education at all your have a limited future with very limited options and your going to be stuck at a cheap paying part time job while you struggle through life trying to support a kid who your parents are going to have to be raising most of the time its best to WAIT a few more years so you can mature a lot more, and get some important education

Answer #7

Becoming a mom would mean you would have to miss a little school when birth comes around and you will have no choice but to get a part time job to care for it. If this obsession didn’t occur any other time,it’s your hormones going crazy making you want to be a parent,what you see adult moms go through isn’t as easy as it seems. Talk to some of moms and find out for yourself what it’s like and ask them what the twists and turns are in being a mom. Good luck!

Answer #8

hi like you wonna be a mum come live with me for a week and see wot its like beleave me you DONT wonna be a teen mum, and you dont need $$ for baby sitter (thats your job) and most of all think of the child its not fear for you to have a baby just because you wonna wake up lill girl play with your dolls and be happy

Answer #9

Maybe you should take a look at your mom and how hard she has it ..do you really want that for you and your child…Don’t get pregnant you are 13 years old ..you are way to young..I’m 28 and I have 3 kids who are 8,7 and 5months…Its hard on me just imagine how hard it will be for you…You stay in school and wait until you are married. Your mom can’t afford to take care of another child.
