Maybe, sign up for a 'child-care' class at school. Early childhood development, babysit, all the above, you don't 'need' a baby in the house, to satisfy your 'baby-cravings'!!!

Honey if you love babies so much, maybe you could get a job baby sitting. There are always people out there looking for sitters. I hope when you are older you have all the baby's you want. God bless you for being so loving. Some parent's don't even care that much. I know you will make a good mother when the time comes. Sounds like you have a lot of love in your heart. Be happy.

There is no way you can convince her and frankly she's being a responsible parent by not letting you as young as you are do you know How to do mouth to mouth or CPR for it for some reason that baby may stop breathing..I'm not cutting you down or anything but until your 16 your not at legal age to watch a child anyways that against the law if something happens to that child when he/she is in the care of you and the parents could potentially loose there child because you are a minor..

If you are 14, you are old enough to babysit. Try getting a babysitting job, it sounds like you will really enjoy it. Your mom has no obligation ot have another kid because you want a baby in the house, so I suggest babysitting until you are mature enough and in a loving relationship to have your own children when you are ready (married, financially secure, etc.) Babysit

do NOT get pregnant. try to get a babysitting job. you can be with babies, and earn money at the same time. if you really love babies, and want to give your own baby the best of everything, you will wait until you have an education and can give that baby a good home, nutritious food (that you buy yourself) and a good education. i work in a health department, and see young girls like you having babies all the time. they come in to get WIC and Medicaid, and that is no way to bring up a child. if you love a child, be a good provider, not just a broke baby sitter who has to try to get money from your parents and the baby's daddy.

Shelly, you'll make a great mommy one day. Good for you that you enjoy nurturing so much. Ever think about volunteering in a nursery ward at a hospital? How about voluteering in a daycare? They can always use the free help, and you can always use the extra experience in taking care of little ones. Try to get infant CPR certified, and see if there's anywhere babies are that you can give your loving time.

do you actually have a question?
all I read was a long, run-on, statement about how much you love babies.
