y do young teens an kids want a baby

im 16 an I just wanna know why do yall teens an kids want to have a baby soo bad

Answer #1

Im 13 years old and I knoe that if I had a baby right now I would regret it. My friends have been getting pregnant and saying they want the baby, I try to be supportive and when they are in sulted by what others have said I tell them that no matter what age they are they can still be a good mum. I admit to wanting a baby but I wouldnt dream of having one now , I no that I can hardly look after myself. But going through all these things I feel kinda alone and un noticed and if I had a child I wud feel different. My advise to teens wanting a baby is that they should get a puppy or sumtin cause even though they have fantacies of having a perfect child and bein an amazing mum the reality is quite differnt , another thing is if your young and want a babby your not alone but just wait a while or you could make a big mistake.

Answer #2

I Am 14 years old and I’ve wanted a baby since I was 12 years old & I have never gone out and done it but I’ve now reach the decision that its not for anyone else the babys for me. I have a good head on my shoulders and although im only 14 it doesnt matter at any age you can be good a good mum I know its not gonna be all happy times but I know for a fact ! that im going to go through stress and stuff, but I know that since my bestfrend died couple of months ago, I feel like I finally need to go out and have the baby now, but im going to think before I make any of theese decision and think proberly because alough I want and need the love, I also want to give it 120% back

Answer #3

I think its the fact that they feel unloved and they know for sure that there child will love them plus its something that only belongs to you

Answer #4

At a certain age maternal and paternal instincts kick in and people get a feeling to want to have children and raise them. For some people this kicks in very young and for others it may never kick in. Although it is not normal for it to be so young.

Answer #5

Some probably does cause most teens do and they feel weird bein one not to have one. others want them cause they love babies to death and want one not realizin the responsibilities havin one. I want kids someday but not now I actually want to live my life and not mess it up cause thats what everyone else is doin

Answer #6

sometimes people dont expect a child. I had a baby and im 17… I was with the guy for 2 years before we had our baby and we are still together.. we are engaged and he supports us financially while I finish school and go to college. I think a lot of young people have babies because they think they are invinsible.. like it could never happen to them.. I was one of em. I stepped up to the plate and took responsiblility and I dont regret it. but if I could do it all over again I would wait. people think it makes a relationship better, but it doesnt. trust me,, waiting is the best decision.

Answer #7

Because they’re cute and they smell good and they’re filled with love. Sometimes they don’t understand what a big responsibility it would be.

I’m young right now and I want one. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to! I am NOT in the position to. But I love babies

Answer #8

Why are kids developing at a younger age? Why are girls ‘becoming women’ at a younger age these days? For a long time, things that teens went through in the fifties, preteens are now getting. So why not maternal instincts?

Also I think tv shows are saying its okay for them to have a baby, hence shows like Reba, Juno, etc.

Answer #9

becase majority of them have little if any education and sex education they usually think taking care of a baby is like taking care of a doll they dont understand how hard raising a baby human being is and dont know what they need to keep it alive, or even how much money it is they might also be pressured into thinking it might make there boyfreind not break up with them or soemthing like that but basically because there uneducated and think taking care of a baby is a walk in the park

Answer #10

I agree with jazlovestoskate, everyone as a child has fun playing dolls and when you get tired you put them away. As a real child it means a lot of responsibilty, care, sleep loss, watching over them when they get high fevers and every month,it seems they are always sick, a lot of crying. Kids cost sooo much if you want them to have a decent life. Don’t think that kids give so much love back, it’s more about special moments that we cherish than constant love 24/7. Believe me it’s a lot of work, so my advice enjoy life to it fullest and get a good education. Travel the world there is a lot to see and do. Have a lot of fun. After with a great soul mate have a child and enjoy! They need a lot of love and care, major responsibilty. Think about it before having a child in your teens.

Answer #11

i’m 12 and I have 2 nieces and a nephew that I baby sit every day for hours alone (my brother and sister in law work) so I know how hard taking care of babys is. I don’t know why but I want a baby so bad. I just wanna grow up and get married but if I do that i’ll miss out on so much of my life :(
