How can I convince my parents I'm mature enough for a baby?

ok and first of all the question up there was supposed to be WHATS WRONG WITH 18 YEAR OLDS BEING PREGNANT not HOW CAN I CONVINCE MY PARENTS I’M OLD ENOUGH FOR A BABY because that wasnt the origional tytle

well..Its your body and your life. Your parents are probably just concerned about your future and life goals. Its their concern but your life. If they never trusted you like you said they didnt well, it might be that since your their child they don’t want you to make dumb mistakes. So, if u do ahave a chance just tell them that they are the good parents that taught me good from bad. And if my advice is a problem well ur on ur own.

The problem with 18 year olds having babies is that most of them cannot be good parents. Very few 18 year olds can give a baby what it needs and deserves.

Not sure if this was a hypothetical question or not, but if you want a baby:

-Do you have money? -Do you have your own house or apartment with room for another person (Mommy and Daddy’s house does not count)? -Are you taking prenatal vitamins? -Do you go to your ob-gyn often? -Do you know about fertility, your cycle, prenatal development, and child development? -Are you finished with college? -Do you have health insurance? -Do you have a job that pays well and offers maternity leave or a partner who can support all three of you while you are out of work having the baby so that the bills can get paid?

If you answered no to those things, then like most 18 year olds, you’re not ready for a baby. When you finish college and can afford to live on your own, then you can have all the freedom you want and can have a baby. Having a baby before you can give it what it deserves is just immature and selfish. If you’re still living with your parents and want to convince them that you are mature, telling them you want a baby so that they have another child under their roof to support is the wrong way to go about doing that.

If that was a hypothetical question, and you just want to convince your parents that you are mature in general, try going to college, getting a job, contributing to the bills, doing chores without being asked, etc.
