Answer 2

Sometimes having a baby at 16 can be a very diffucult decision. A lot of women are against abortion and adoption can be very hard after u have carried a baby for 9 months and then have to give it away. Only your friends mom can expalin that and maybe she made the right choice. Until u know why, never pass judgement. I thought at 17 it would be hard to raise a baby and it was, but my baby made me straighten out my life, i was into underage drinking and drugs and getting pregnant was the best thing that could have happened to me. Maybe her daughter was her saving grace..............

Answer 3

My best friend who was a straight A student all her life.. got pregnant at 16. Though she was pregnant/and had the baby in Sept she still graduated in the top 10 in her class in May. (And the father of the baby, his mother made him move away.) She worked 2 jobs and took care of her son and did her homework on her breaks or 1st thing in the morning before school. It was tough.. but even though she was young and had alot on her plate.. she knew that her son was her world and made it right. She did not believe in abortions and she knew adoption was not going to work out for her. So even when things are not planned.. some can make it.. she was one of them. She now is 33 and has 4 kids and has a degree in Accounting and works for a Local university in the Math Dept. She is my idol.. I am honored to call her my friend, we have been best friends for 22 yrs.

Answer 4

I was 19 when I had my baby and I was married but I still was not ready! Gilrs that young who have babies are raised wrong. They usually have no male fiqure in their life so to compensate for the lack of love they go and have sex and think they are in love even though they are actually confused. Girls like that think sex = love but thats not how it works. A lot of guys will take advantage of her situation and sleep with her, she gets preg and the guys run for the hills. Also girls feel that they are unloved by family and that if they have a baby, the baby will love them and replace the missing love. This is how my counsin explained how she was feeling. She was 15 with her 1st baby, 17 with her twins, 18 1/2 with her last baby and she had them all taken from her because of her drug problem

Answer 5

I had my first baby at 15 and from experience, it was a very scary time for me. It was unplanned but my boyfriend and I (still together by the way and married 9 years later) had to both step up and take care of our responsibility. I do realize how fast I had to grow up and if I could have, I would have waited but abortion or adoption was not an option. Looking at her now, if I could change the past, I wouldn't for nothing in the world.

Answer 6

I'm gonna guess that it wasnt a planned pregnancy. I'd say only about 5% of teenager pregnancies are planned (and thats being generous). My sister had a baby at 16 and it wasnt planned, she had sex because she loved the guy, was a bit immature, and thought he had put on the condom right (the idiot put it on wrong and it came off). Maybe when you grow up (you sound like you are about 10 years old) you'll realize some of the pressures you have as a teenager.

Answer 7

well let me tell you. I was there. It was really hard on me. I didn't mean to get that way, it just happened. I was supposed to give her to give her to a good home but I was also raised not to be on adc or welfare ae most peopls call it. Then my father told me I had to keep the baby and go on welfare. Thru me for a loop. It was very hard to raise my daughter by myself. I am proud of her though cuz she came out really good and she is very mature, But with the complications with the birth and her teachers and personail things that happened to her, I am very proud of her. I still to this day tell her we are sisters, not mother and daughter like we should be, only cuz I couldn't pick her up for the first 9 months. If you want to email me I will tell you more but that is up to you. [e-mail]

Answer 8

Peer Pressure most likely got the best of her and it just.....happened, and she probably regreted it, but she didnt want tot abort her baby.
By the way, good choice on not wanting to have a baby that young. Kudos to you. <3

Answer 9

It won't do anything to you physically. Mentally you'll have to grow up real fast and realize that you can't have a social life anymore with your friends becuase you have a screaming baby to care for 24/7.
