Why do you even have to ask. Of course it's wrong. It's wrong for a 13 yr old to even have sex. God! What is wrong with this world????

At 13 you should not be thinking about sex. I hope that you are not planning on getting pregnant anytime soon. Your body is not even fully developed at this time. I know girls your age THINK they want a baby, but it is really a hard job being a mom at any age. If by chance you happen to be pregnant at this time, it is important that your parents know and you seek medical attention for pre-natal care. Your mind and way of thinking is not in full bloom either. There are so many things that you do not know about this world. Think about the war and all the bad things happening today it won't be any better tomorrow. Do YOU really think it will be easy raising a baby when you yourself is one? Please it is a scary world and it will be extremely hard for you to raise a baby. Worry about making yourself a better person..get some experience under your hat, you are too young to think about a baby now. Don't grow up any sooner than you have to. Just be a kid and enjoy the moment of your childhood. It sucks being an adult...bills to pay..children to clothe...lack of sleep because you are taking care of a baby....cleaning up after yourself and the baby. Just be a kid..not a mom.

Yes. 13 year-olds are too young physically and emotionally for childbearing. A person who is 13 is not even done growing herself! Having a baby would be horrible on her body. Also, she is not mature enough to handle having a child. Children never cease to need care. They need to be cared for 24/7, regardless of what you'd rather do with your friends. Young teens who have babies very often end up without friends, dropping out of school and living in poverty. This is NOT the time in your life to have a baby. I promise you this. I became a mom at 24 and it was still a huge adjustment. I had a college degree, a job and a husband, and it was still a tough time. Do not do this. You are way, way, too young.

I am not a person to judge but I do think it is way too young. How can they have a kid when they're still a kid themself! They can't drive for another 3 years so they would have to have someone drive them and the baby around, they're too young to work and especially go to school and work. But all I can say is if it is you or someone you know and they are pregnant, do what you/they have to do to be a good parent. Don't do anything that you will regret or get in trouble for in the long run and realize that you/they are taking on a HUGE responsibility but things do get better and things happen for a reason. There is always someone out there that is always willing to help but don't pawn the baby off on someone else.

It's definitely not good because at 13 years old you're still a baby yourself. But if it does happen, suck it up...be responsible and give up your life to give your child a good one and by the time you're 27 you can basically have your life back again and still live (responsibly I hope) Just don't have any more kids. I hope it's not you - with a name like Gangsta Boo, well, that kind of shows just how immature 13 really is.

Wrong how? Morally? yeah probably. Ethically? Well, it doesn't seem entirely fair to either the baby or the grandparents who will likely have to take care of the baby.
What isn't wrong is to make a right out of it. By this I mean, how wonderful if a 13 year old DOES have the baby (the damage having already been done, afterall) and then puts it up for adoption to give parents who are unable to conceive a chance to be parents.

I think if a 13-year-old were pregnant and wanted to keep the baby, she would have to have a lot of support from family and friends so that she could continue with school and make something of herself. I know that there are high schools and some colleges with day care centers on site. I think it also depends a lot on how mature the 13-year-old is. Can she fully accept the responsiblities of being a good mom? Is she willing to sacrifice her social life to stay home and take care of the baby? Does she think she has the knowledge/ability to raise a child? I think that, unless this girl has an incredible support system in place AND unless she is mature AND she has figured out a way to continue with her education and be successful, a pregnant 13-year-old should consider putting her baby up for adoption. There are many people who are ready to become parents who are unable to have children of their own!

Yes. If she is pregnant, I believe that she should keep the baby, but a 13 year old should not be getting herself pregnant.

From a physical aspect, if a person can get pregnant, then it can't be wrong.
From a morale aspect, most 13 year olds are not mature enough to handle the responsibilities of raising a child.

It's not the greatest idea, but if she gets pregnant, it can be done. She'd probably have to go with an alternative, though- like adoption, or having the baby be raised by her parents as a younger "sibling."
