Having a kid is a huge responsibility and there is no going back when you make the decision. However, if you are both mature and know what you want AND are capable of caring for a kid (financially, emotionally what have you) then I don't think 19 is too young. If I were you though I would enjoy life without children a little longer. At 19 you have PLENTY of time to have children

OMG! Are you crazy? Why, oh why would you want to do that????
You have SO many good years ahead of you...
Wait atleast 5 or 6 years, please! I beg of you. For your sake and your future child's sake. You don't want to end up resenting having missed your freedom when you were young!
In an anonymous poll, when asked if they would have children again (at any age) the majority of parents said NO!
So please, think about it hard. It's not just about having a cute baby! It is a 24 hour, 7 day a week, never ending commitment. And in a few short years they will not be that cute baby, but a backtalking little &^(@$!**(&%^!
And if you think the commitment ends at 18! HA! Think again!
My suggestion: see if you can "borrow" a kid for a weekend. Then tell me if you still want a baby right now...

Nineteen is way too young!! I don't believe there is a nineteen year old mature enough to deal with the responsibilities of being a parent; in fact I think the fact that you asked the question means you're not ready! A mature 19 year old realizes the committment and enormous responsibility of having a child and would know they weren't ready to have one. Slow your roll, go to college, or start working towards a career. That's what mature 19 year olds would be doing.

OK, you want a kid. Let's think about this:
Are you ready to commit 21 years of YOUR lives to raise another human being?
Are you financially ready? ($10-15,000 to bring the child into the world without insurance, another few thousand to acquire clothes, furniture, etc for the baby)
Do you have a steady job (not your g/f) that will support the 3 of you for the next 21+ years?
Are you ready to give up your social life totally for the next 3-4 years?
Are you able to support her and the baby IF you two should split up (you will have to if that happens).
Have you taken parenting classes to know what to prepare for?
Are you both mentally, emotionally and psychologically mature?
Have you discussed your ideas of raising a child and discipline methods?
19, for most people, is too young to be parents because of all the things you must commit to AND all the things you have to give up (including sex for a period of up to 3 months- - - can you do that?). There is just too much life left in which to raise kids. Why give up your lifestyle for that now?

at the start, congratulations on being so smart and mature about this. in case you could take a number of that adulthood and tell both contraptions of human beings, it truly is 1/2 your conflict received. merely attempt to go back to a decision on a time at the same time as they are no longer below pressure or indignant, then sit them down and clarify what's got here about. you say you "imagine" her mothers and fathers ought to kick her out. You in no way understand, they could be secretly overjoyed on the idea of being grandparents and help you out in any respect they could. Do you've the different kinfolk or pals which could be more advantageous supportive? Now, the authorities promises lots of help for youthful moms - economic help (even if one or both one in each of you're operating, counting on the position you're), lodging, etc. There are also distinct community communities that furnish more advantageous of an emotional help community. It relies upon which united states you're in as to the quantity of assist you get carry of, even with the indisputable fact that it truly is the bare minimum that i'm attentive to. Congratulations on your toddler-to-be, and acceptable desires...you'll make it :)

yes 19 is too young. you have to make sure you can provide for the baby (and if you go to school you cant do that) and be able to support it. you will have great struggles if you have a kid at this age, youre still practically teenagers!

If both of you are planning to with each other, I hope you are getting married with her first. A kid is as much as a committment as a marriage.

First of all, if you want a kid and think you're ready for a kid, you are ready to GET MARRIED FIRST. Think of the child's best interest.
