 | Well i personally think you should wait. Of course another teen that wants a baby or is already pregnant going to tell you to have one. But trust me. I have a 2 1/2 year old, and 3 months pregnant with twins. It is very very hard raising one. How are you going to put yourself through school? How are you going to pay for your baby? It is NOT cheap. Teens your age would have to get social services help. My husband owns his own bussiness, we have a family insurance plan. It is not cheap having a baby, nor raising(food, diapers, clothing, doctors bills, etc.) Sure it seems like a fun thing to do right now. But there will be no more jumping in the car and heading off. Trying standing in the rain putting a baby in a car seat, with diaper bags and stroller. And oh my god. How about the going shopping for a day, dragging a baby around. Well trust me, it isn't always fun. A baby gets tired easy, and most of the time sreams and cries while you are tring to enjoy a day of shopping, while everyone in the store is staring at you because of your baby throwing a fit. I think you should wait a while longer. There is plenty of time to have kids. You are young, so enjoy the years you have left, because being a responable parent is a full time job, for the rest of your life.
