Pregnant?
You should grow up and start acting like an adult, you know moving out, getting a job or going to college.
Deal with it or leave!

Girl you gotta get out of there. Your mom will never respect you as a parent while you live there. She will try to run your life, and your new child's life.
You need to find an alternative. A friend who needs a roommate, a cheap apartment you can afford, or something. I hope you have a job.
I know it's hard. You're still young but it's time to move out! I was out of the house at 18

No matter what, you are always going to be treated like a child by your parents...especially your mother. I am 23 years old and still living at home but I am finishing my Master's degree and as soon as I get hired this summer as a teacher, I plan on moving out. If you're not going to school...you should be working and saving to move out and as soon as you can afford to...MOVE OUT! Until then, be responsible and make mature decisions.

If its too much try to move out. Or maybe you and your mom could be more like roomates if you step it up and prove to your mom that you are a adult. I lived at home for a very very long time but my parents respected my space because they didn't have to take of me and I contributed to the household like an adult.

Im 20 and i live at home...but i have a full time job at a high school working on computers and I bought my own truck and buy my own food and bring food in for the family sometimes. you need to prove you are independent and not a child. so get a job or go to school and give her rent money or buy food for them showing you can hold your own. save money while your there then move out.

You should obtain a job and look for a roommate. Then you can be an adult. If you choose to stay at home, accept you are a child in your parents eyes. Thats how you will be treated.

Start paying her rent and stop acting like your 16. My daughter is 21 and lives at home, I treat her like she is 21, she works and goes to school pays half the rent and utlities...

Get a job, state your independence, save money and get you a place to stay. It will be hard but you should deal with it you are an adult now and adults handle their situations and don't rin to momma.

If you have the means to do so I would move out. Living on your own is very satisfying !
