Stick to your guns on this one. If your not ready don't let anyone pressure you into it. You both are too young. Do you know that most high school sweethearts don't even last? Wait until you guys finish school and figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life before you start bringing kids into it. That little job he has won't last forever and then what? You have to make a living so you can save for college fund and medical insurance for the kid. Alot comes with being a parent and at 16 and 17, your not ready.

Sad that your concerns on wrecking your body came out first in your list of reasons even before the details of your situation. You obviously are not ready to be a mother. Refuse him, because what does he know at 16?, and if he doesn't take that for an answer, leave.

very simple answer here....don't have a baby. You're boyfriend has plenty of time before becoming a dad. He's only 16. You should never get pregnant to keep someone either so if he gives you the line "have a baby or I'm leaving". Tell him goodbye!

Say no. And he doesn't oblige, then I suggest layin' off the relationship for a bit.
Realize the effects, realize the new changes. And I mean /seriously/.
The kid is only one year older than me and so even I know the facts and the such.
You're both way too young. Enjoy life.

He was a desperate boy, and now is proud of having "you" as his girlfriend. He probably thinks if you have baby from you, you'll stay with him forever.
Since he's only 16, his love will disappear anyway and he'll leave you.
+ he's stupid.

Even though you are likely 2 or 3 years older than your mother was when she had you, well, that just about sums it up.

you should wait until you are financially stable, when you both are out of school and independent...
enjoy being young and not having those kinds of responsibilities
why on earth would he want one that young?

wait having a baby is a huge responsibility and it should be mutual be careful not to let him get you pregnant if your not ready
