I think that is a shame. Both her parents and her should be so ashamed.

When I was in 8th grade a girl in my room had a baby. She, at that time, was 14. Her mother made her move in with her grandmother, she had to change schools while she was pregnant which is when I met her, and her boyfriend stopped returning her calls. She had a really hard time but she became my friend so I gave her as much support as I could (I was also 14). We are now 27 and I ran into her the other day and she now has 6 children and no husband. Imo with no one to love or support her she found attention anywhere she could get it. So don't make fun or judge this girl. She is probably very scared and needs all the friend she can get.

Let's see 1st I was 17yrs when I had my 1st child. So I know first hand (and I was older) that it can be very difficult being a teen Mom. People are rude and down right cruel to you. Passing all sorts of judgments and most the time they see nothing wrong with saying it all to your face or directly behind your back so you can hear.
I would think
1. I sure hope she has a good support system
2. I think it is great that she is in school and didn't drop out.
3. I would befriend her and stop passing judgments on her.

"What a world", is right! But is takes all types of people and experiences to make it go around.
It's unfortunate that this 14 year old has such large responsibilities now, but I hope that she is getting the support and care that she needs to help in raising her baby. I hope that the father is involved and helpful, too.
As she is still in school, that is a good sign that she and her baby have a bright future.
Best wishes and much love to her family.
This could be a learning experience for you - you are obviously distressed by her situation. Perhaps this is a life lesson that you are not ready to be in the same position.

It is a very sad, sad thing. My sister actually got pregnant at the age of 13. Unbelievable, I know. Although my sister isn't doing too well these days, I do have a beautiful almost 5 year old neice. Now that I am older it is unimaginitive, but when she got prego I was 16 and she hung out with all my older friends, so I guess I didn't look at her as being young... Its very sad and kids are having babies younger and younger...They think its a game or something...I see living proof everyday that it definitely is not a walk in the park. Please pray for her and that baby.

Well I had a baby at age 14, too.
It wasn't on purpose - it was my first time ever having sex and I ended up pregnant. I was scared and alone and the baby's father wanted nothing to do with me.
Luckily my high school had a day care in it and I was able to take my daughter to school with me and still have a normal life.
I'm also thankful that I have loving parents that helped me every step of the way (although they did not condone what I had done).
I don't think it's fair for you to judge anyone who is that young and has a child.
It happens to the best of us.... and I would not trade my life for the world. I'm 27 with a 13 year old daughter and I LOVE my life!

Happens way way too much as the most babies for teens are now in the 12 to 14 year old age group. I think that the girls parents (both mother and father) (even if father is gone) should both go to jail till the 14 year old girl turns 18. If the law was this way, parents would take care of their kids. It is really not the girls fault so you should support her and help her so she does not get pregnant again. It is because her parents are bad that she now needs your help.

Why is everyone blaming the girl's parents. They didn't force her to have sex. Everyone is responsible for their own decisions and the consequences of those decisions. teenagers can be very sneaky. I know this from personal experience as a former teenager :)
This girl has my support and encouragement. At least she faced up to her mistake and kept her baby. Unlike the millions that chose the "easy" way out by aborting. And she is finishing school. Good for her!!!
I hope you will encourage her and be her friend.

We all make mistakes not saying that having a baby is a mistake,but having sex early is. If half of you that responded got pregnant or got your girlfriend pregnant the first time you had sex it would be at a young age too. Though 14 is young, you have no place to judge, none of us do. There are a lot worse things in this world, though I don't think having a baby really young is right, it could be worse..

I kind of feel bad for her but she already has the baby so the only thing you can do is hope for the best. If shes in your class maybe try being a friend ... can you imagine going to school every day and being judged by everyone.
