My family, and my husbands family were all together last night and half of my family wouldn't quit STARING at me! I am almost sure I have given up Yale because I am now pregnant but married. I still may go, but I am not 100% sure. Half my family thinks I made a HUGE mistake. My mom and Dad are thrilled because they will have a grandchild but idk know. They are so pissed at me. My family is let's say, above middle class financially, so I don't even really need a job for the money. My husband is going to Yale as well and I will go to Connecticut with my hubby but what do you think? Is my family right? Do they have a reason to do this to me? It was the worst thanksgiving of my ENTIRE life.

next Thanksgiving will be different. Everyone will be wanting to spend time with your baby. Hopefully you still decide to attend college at some point.

So you didn't plan on a baby this soon. So what? A baby is a blessing and while you may have to put off your Yale plans for awhile, I hope you and your husband will know how blessed you are to be given a sweet little one. And your family...what's a polite way to say...WHAT A RUDE BUNCH? No one has a right to be hateful to you about this. It's not like most of the young people who are having babies with no commitment, no support, no place to live. This really and truly is none of your family's business and they need to be politely told how cruel they are being. If you don't get the air cleared, I'd NOT be at any Christmas gatherings with the family. Shame on them!!!!!!!!!

What does your huby think? Utimately what it comes down to is what you guys think. As long as you have a means for your support meaning you and your hubby to take care of your child thats all that matters.
Yale is not the easiest school to get into nor can alot afford the tuition, of course they would be upset for you posibly "blowing" a good oppertunity. And they are prolly concerned with posibly having to help support you and YOUR family. Maybe they just dont understand the intent you have on providing for your family. If you could show them you wont have to depend on them they may not have so much animosity towards you.
Its your family nd your life. All that matters is that you and hubby take care of your child as long as you both can do this without their help and as long as hubby supprts your decision thats all that matters.
Good luck.

Obviously they're disappointed that you got pregnant and aren't going to be able to go to school, sure, they have a right of their own to be upset with you, especially with you being 17... I don't want to say anything else negative... but if it's what you want then just go with it, at least your parents are happy about it...

You are getting ready to have a child. You need to get over this worrying about what everyone thinks thing. Stop worrying about it. Who cares if they are right?? Do what is best for your hus and your child.
Good luck and best wishes.

It wasnt an wonderful journey. i think of the difficulty nonetheless replaced into that Elijah Burke replaced into contained in the journey. could have been CM Punk vs Shelton Benjamin, that could have been rather greater valuable.

i know its a really hard decision because every parents dream is to have grandkids, but every parents dream is also to have them go to an ivy-league school. and if your family is financially equipped there is not really a worry, but education is very important, so think what will last forever?- your education, or your marriage/family?? i think that question should answer yours.

Your parents have the right to anything if they are gonna support you and the baby. Others? no, only the ones who would be supporting you.
