Our future is doomed with an overabundance of welfare queens who cant take care of their kids. Dont you young ladies know that you have now pretty much ruined your life?

The point was this. I do know that some young monthers can do a good job. However its a statitistcal fact that 95% of all marraiges that start when at least 1 of them is below 21 years old end in divorce. Think about that. If there are 100% young married pregnant chicks in a room all thinking they did the right thing....in the future 95 of those 100 will now be single moms. Great that some of you are still getting an education with your kids. But what about many of those 95% that dropped out of school to have a baby. Where are they going to be when they break up with their husbands? THINK ABOUT IT.

Statistics dont lie...sorry. If there are 10 of you young mothers cussing me out and all 10 of you got married before you and your husband turned 21....in 10 years at least 9 of you will be divorced. Those arent very good odds. Especiacially when you are talking about the life of a child.

I agree. However, I don't think 21 is necessarily too young. I only agree with the young teenagers who even admit to not practicing safe sex. Not that I am that old, I understood that I wasn't ready, for many reasons, for a baby when I was younger. I really don't know why it is the way it is nowadays. You can only blame the over-sexing of the entertainment industry so much. I also think that there aren't as many parents involved anymore. It also infuriates me that I will essentially be paying for many of these children because of welfare, but what can you do? I am due in August with my daughter and I know that I will do my best to teach her good morals and ethics and will be involved in her life so that hopefully she won't end up like these young girls.

I think you are a little off....I got pregnant the first time and was married at 21 and yes it did end in divorce HOWEVER that was because he ran around on me and couldn't keep it in his pants ( sound familiar can you relate being you are the same species and since we are generalizing if one man does it doesn't that mean you do it to in your way of thinking) that was after 10 years of marriage and 2 more kids. I put myself through college and attended classes the entire time I was pregnant including coming back twice, once after I gave birth to my son to take my final exam he was 5 days old at the time and the other 2 days after my daughter to take my final. I graduated with a teaching degree and was able to support my children even without my ex ( he doesn't pay child support for the kids even though he is supposed to another big star for you and your how great guys are mentality.) I got another degree so I could perform ultrasounds and got remarried and have 6 kid and am currently trying for another. I am 36 now and don't feel like I ruined my life in anyway (except for the fact I made a mistake and married some one who shares many of the same opinions as you.) I still serve in the military, take care of my kids and have a great life. I would not change it . I think out of all of the accomplishments I have achieve, graduating college with honor being one of them, all of that pales in comparison with being a mom. To this day when anyone asks me what is the best thing I have ever done in my life I tell them having my kids. They are the thing I am most proud of!

Apparently when you said "young chick" (which is derogatory, by the way) you should have specified under 16. Most answers seem to be from women over 18 who are doing the best they can, and more power to them. I find myself amazed at how many are 14, 15, or even younger, and I wonder what they were thinking. Or if they're even telling the truth. You're taking a beating from the young mothers out there so I'll leave you to it.

who are you to say a young female cant be a good mother???? talk about naive and narrow minded!!!!
just because young people may start their family a little younger than what is socially and politically 'acceptable' doesnt mean they cant take care of their kids.
im 22 and 29 weeks pregnant, my partner is 20. i am incollege full time studyng my diploma. my partner works no less than 60 hours per week and we recieve no money or benefits from the state.
and for the 'youve ruined your life', we have never been happier or more excited since we found out we were having our first baby. a child is a blessing.
you concentrate on the females.... what about the dead beat males that make those girls single parents????

Dad--is that you?
I had my children at 17, 19, and 24 and never received ONE FOOD STAMP or ONE WELFARE CHECK. I never even got WIC. Your precious f-ing tax dollars never supported MY kids; my husband and I did.
And even if I HAD needed those resources, that's what they're there for. If a woman or a family needs them, they should use them w/out judgment! I have known women who've gone to school for two & four years to get their degrees & had to rely on day care assistance, food stamps, and welfare in the meantime. What's wrong w/them trying to better themselves, using the resources available to them now to provide more opportunities for their children and themselves in the long run?!
Regardless of who uses them or who doesn't, the taxpayers are still going to pay for it (read: it's still gonna come out of yours and my paychecks) so why are you bitching?
You can't lump every young mother together in a stereotype like that. I mean, I guess you can, but that makes you a judgmental @sshole, doesn't it!

Ok, Mr. I am all that
Where did you get your stats? Can we have a link please?
Guess what, I was a single mother at 19. I went to school, got a damn good job and got married after 21. Doesn't make me any better than anyone else.
You sick of "welfare queens"? Why don't you go on a tirade with men who obviously son't support their children. Let's see that Stat.

Why are you worried about it? And you don't know those girls. I'm young too and i have full medical coverage and work a wonderful, great paying job, so... not everyone because they are young are welfare queens. And if they do need assistance, that's what welfare is there for.

And what "thing" would they be on? I suppose you mean a pegnancy forum on the internet?
You sound like a winner.
***To your added details***- what is the point of asking this question? Exactly what kind of answers were you hoping for sir? Just wanted to post your vast knowledge of marital statistics in a pregnancy forum then accuse those young mothers of being on welfare and ruining their lives? Nice, real nice. You must be recently divorced. Lucky girl.
