Um why isn't it possible for her to be having twins just because she's young? My cousin although is a year older is pregnant with twins is that so hard to believe what does age have to do with it.

Oh to answer your question I would say get all the help you can get. My mom had twins when I was in the 7th grade and she decided she didn't want to stay home with newborns and went out and partied all the time while I watched them so if I being only 13 can do it I'm sure you can though it is hard I will admit

Do you have any type of a support circle (family, DEPENDABLE friends, etc) that you can occasionally rely on? First place to start is with the state - get in with WIC and food stamps. Get all the State and local help you can if you are in this alone. Hopefully dad is going to step up and take responsibility. If not, take the father to court for mandated child support. Do not be shy about it - raising a child is not a joke - it is life or death. You are going to have tough times, and there will be days, weeks, and even months where you are completely overwhelmed. Just keep in mind that you are a strong person capable of doing whatever it takes to insure your children are taken care of properly. It will become easier as time goes on - or at least you will get used to the routine.

If you are not 100% certain that you are capable of doing it, please consider adoption. It is a tough decision, but in the long run you and your baby will be fine. I am adopted, and I have never known my birthmother or father, but I hold no grudge and have no issues as a result. My adopted family has taken good care of me. Now I am single 37 and have an 11 year old daughter.

This is a really difficult question. My suggestion is this: consider adoption. I know that it is a hard descion to adopt out. But you have to look at the whole big picture: 1. will you be able to financially support these kids, babies are expensive
2. Do you want to be a waitress all your life? or are you going to be able to have the time and money to go to school and give these kids the life they deserve
3. is the father in the picture?

first i want to say something about the father. If he is in the picture life gets alittle easier, but not much. you have his support and money (if he can) in raising your kids. If he isn't your going at this all alone, if you have family it's a help but its not going to take the place of a father. You also have to remember that the government can take your kids away if they feel that you can't take care of them. So you may just end up loosing them anyways. Adoption is a great thing, it can give your kids a good home with people who maybe couldn't have any kids on their own. I suggest you look into these possibilities and also seek professional help, try the pregnancy hotline! 1-800-4-options

Do you want to have someone else raise your children?? If you don't feel that you can handle it you should look into options like open adoption so that at least you can see them and make the decision on who will actually have them.
If you want to keep your children the state you live in should have services to help you, such as child care assistance so that you can stay in school (which is the most important thing because without an education you won't be able to care for them) and financial assistance and job search programs. Good luck to you and in whatever decision you make.

well if you dont have anyone to help you so you can finish school i would say adoption is your best bet try for an open adoption so you can still have a part in the babies lives so you dont feel completely out of control you could give a great gift to people who are better prepared for this kind of commitment go to google and find out about it and see good luck

Wow - sucks to be you! Didn't you learn after the first one? Your name says that you have 3 kids so I'm assuming this is true. If you can't raise them alone and you don't have family to help you, I would give them up for adoption so they can have a shot at a decent life. Good luck - and, get on birth control!!!

I find it hard to believe. But, if you are honest, your family, the court system, and the state will help you out.

If not, you can always consider adoption, or putting them in foster care until you're able to care for them.

you'll have to try and find a way to balance your school schedule with your children. and that is going to be hard. but i bet you are a strong women, and you can do it. believe in yourself, and keep on going. don't give up. i bet your babies will be proud and grateful later.
