I got pregnant at age 17 my boyfriend was 16. We did not get married in fact we went our seprate ways for 5 years after our son was born. Then we got back together and got married and it has now been 10 years and 3 more kids. I believe it was worth the wait.

Getting married because of a pregnancy is just plain stupid. If a couple marry and then later in life find out the have nothing in common but the child then they've lost out on some valuable time they could have been with someone they do love. I did get married and later realized I wasn't happy nor did I love the person I married.

No, marraige is not the answer if you were not already planning a wedding before you conceived. Your commiment now is to your child. Marriage is not supposto be an easy fix because you were both irresponsible by not using protection. There is help out there for unwed mothers if you have no family support. How can a child grow up and be tought love, when it's parents married whitout it? Enjoy your baby, be the best mom you can possibly be, mr right will come along, and accept you and your child.

it depends. If both of you love each other then the answer is "yes".Getting pregnant under this situation is an exciting experience and feeling. And if you plan to get married plainly because you are ashamed to become single parent.. the answer is "No"... however under this is just like leaving your life in hell. You'll suffer emotionally and mentally. After all you can have someone to love you as you are even you already have a baby.

Absolutely NOT! Unless the two are totally in love it would not be fair to the child to be brought into this world where the mother and father did not love / care about each other. It would be best for the two to have a relationship that involved the child outside of a marriage ... vs having them together for x amount of years and then end it in divorce.

The situation is bad enough. Don't make it worse. But do the kid a favor and give it up for adoption. Kids deserve better than the chaos of life while you finish growing up and try to find a good man to share your life. Let the kid have a solid family, it's the best, most unselfish thing you can do.

Depends if you love him or not..If you don't love him then don't........I know years ago your parents may say if you you get pregant then you should get married, but if you are not in love with that person all it's going to do is fall a part because you will not be happy just with having a child.

if you were not considering it before then no. But if you already wanted to it would be nice to speed it up.
But it does no body especially the child to be in a loveless marriage. It will just end in divorce later the two parties can both be good parents separately if they try
