I havent said i am "Grown up" All i asked is how to be in a mature relationship. I take GOOD CARE of my child. I am a stay at home mother and i do everything in my power to make sure she is taken care of. She will be 10 months old on the 16th... It is not to early to start dating. He is the second guy i dated since she was born... the first was a guy i knew forever and we thought we had feelings for eachother but didnt like dating eachother. Yes, i made a mistake and got pregnant 2 weeks after my 16th birthday and yes it caused me to mature. I do not consider my self as an adult. I am doing everything not to have baby number 2 because im not a slut. I dont spread easy (If yah know what i mean) You cant judge me on what i did in my past, its what im doing now that counts which is going to college and trying to make a life for my daughter and my self. And yes, she comes first no matter what.

Rent movies and stay in. Go for walks and push your child in the stroller. Go to parks. Stay home and play cards. Just because you are now in an officially "adult" relationship doesn't mean that all the fun is sucked out of the room. It won't hurt to just chill. Sometimes that is the best way to kick with someone.

Girl I have been there. I was 17, married, and had one baby.... 18 and the same with 2.
now I am 32 and have a 19 month old (I am single now and the little ones father isnt in his life)
But some ideas are.... go to the park and have a picnic... go swimming... go hiking.... hang out at home and have supper and rent a movie....
All of these ideas are child friendly too if you choose to take the little one with you.
Good luck... (o one said being "grown up" is easy it just gets harder)

Sorry to say but you are not an adult. Just because you are almost 18 and have a kid doesn't make you an adult. Being an adult isn't a question of age, but of maturity. There are people in their 30s that are not adults, they just think they are. The fact that you have a kid already, don't know what to do, and think you are an adult, tells me that you are not there yet.
When you are, you won't ask.

First of all, the park and movies or sports is fun and cheap to do. 2nd, don't start anything quite so soon. Be sure to fullfill your motherly duties and focus on the one baby. Do everything in your power to not have baby #2.

You should focus on caring for your baby and not worry about dating. Unbelievable! You have a child and you want to know how to date like an adult. I'm losing my mind!!!

Go on a picnic. Take a hike in the woods. Anything outdoorsy.

You can go on a romantic picnic, you can visit gallerys and museums, you can go on a hike, you can go to a free concert, you can go to the beach (if you're near a beach), etc!
