i have 5 kids and im 19?

Question

i have 5 kids and im 19. im trying to enter a community college after dropping out but it's going to be very hard on me.
I know i made a very big mistake but i am praying everyday. i just need some help and advice from you guys.

Answer 1

hey you are the same age as me and i am pregnant with my 3rd. What i have done is get educated from home and call a tutor when things are difficult to understandit is great but you know i don't think you made a mistake i think your judgement was clouded at some point and you know i have a friend who is also your age that has 4 kids so if people put you down for it don't worry you are not alone

Answer 2

its hard i say and I'm not a parent yet but I've seeing some many young people age to 14 to 25 that made that kind of mistake so here what i say take some computer classes from home so you can be with your children, second you can still go to college but you have to have GED and check with the community college what you want to got too and see if they can help you out because some community college have a day care so like the other said you can drop off your kids care at the community day car and you can go to your classes and after they also offer a job there at the community day care so you can be close to your children if you intend of not doing this so I'll suggest you ask you family or relative to take care of your children if not than if i were you I'll stay with my kids until you grow up and remember you have a lot of time and you still young and also school have no limit. i have heard and seeing older people age of 67 graduated from college so don't worry. family comes first OK. take care know and I'll pray for God to help you out and hope that you find a better man if you are single with 5 kids OK. good luck now and good bless you.

Answer 3

That is a lot on someone as young as you are. But, at least it seems like you have a good head on your shoulders. You are right about making a very big mistake, but now, the first step is that you do realize it. You are trying, but do you have a job at all? The hardest part is getting day care for your children. If you have family that can help, that is best. It's hard if you don't, because it's hard to trust just anyone, even those who work in day care. Some community colleges have day care programs that you can use, and you are also able to work there while attending classes. It makes it easier on you, since you would not have to travel to too many different places to drop off your kids, then go to work and school. It's good to hear that someone your age still has the will to do what you have to do to support you and your family. It's all going to depend on who you have in your family to help. Everyone could use a little help. Family shouldn't turn their back on you for making a big mistake like you did, because you fessed up to it, you realized it, and you are willing to learn from it than giving up and making others look at you like you're such a horrible human being. You've heard people say that "if she can't take care of all those kids, then she shouldn't have slept around." I've heard it too. I don't know the details of your situation, but it seems to me that you are a good mother, and you want what's best, even though you can't turn things around. Look around for those community colleges that offer day care services, and jobs, then see if your family can help until you can get back on your feet. I don't know exactly what's out there, but I do know that you could try talking to someone in a church, or something like that. All I can offer you is that you are in my prayers, and I wish you the best of luck on everything. Don't give up. Those kids need you. Good luck, and keep your chin up!

Answer 4

Since it does appear as this person is lying, my question is, of all questions to fake, why would someone want us to think she is 19 with 5 kids? Is she just looking for some sort of general sympathy? Is she one of 5 kids herself from a young mom? Very curious.

Answer 5

Anyone who bashes this girl for going to school is close-minded and downright rude. She is trying to better herself and apparently all some people want to do is try to bring her down. Does it really matter how she pays for it? That's what the money is there for! Don't give her a hard time for trying to better her life and her children's! Anyway, there are programs out there, some even pay for child care while you go to class. So just get on the internet and look up government assisted childcare. I hope all works out!

Answer 6

Not sure were you are but here we have a program called TANF and WIA they not only pay for your schooling but also daycare. I have 4 kids and and i got $422 amonth plus $10 a day for each day you attend school. Go to your local DHS office and ask for it. they give your and your kids medical and if you don't have a car they pay public tranport to pick you and your kids up and take you to daycare and school. if you have a car they put 4 new tires on mine and fixed it. I graduate in march with my nursing licence and TANF is my savior! this program really helps. WIA program bought all my uniforms and books and is a saefty net if i need them. if you have anymore ?? just e-mail me ! you dont let life get you down! just remember god wouldn't give you more than you can hanndle! I am a single mom of 4 kids ! you are in my prayers!

Answer 7

You can't enter a college without at least a GED.

Obtain that first then the state will pay for your tuition until you are 21.

Answer 8

Good God i hope your oldest isnt like 8. Umm your best bet since im assumeing theres no guy around to help. Maybe relatives or friends can help babysit them....if not your kids are more important then your education.

Answer 9

Ok i dont know where you live but DSS and WIA programs around the work can help pay for your GED and child care and send you to tech with no charge ! I am 20 and wanting to go back to school but i just have two babies so i kinda know how you feel. Good luck hun. I will pray for you .I am sure it will all work out just have faith in god and he will never let you down!!!

Answer 10

Yeah, every 3 weeks she's probably adding a year and a kid to her age. Saying, "Yeah, I'm 15 and I have a kid. Yeah, I'm 16 and I have 2 kids. I'm 17, I have 3 kids. I'm 18, I have 4 kids. I'm 19, I have 5 kids. I'm 20, I have 6 kids." Bullshit.
