How can I say this...I'm sorry but I think you've made an awful mistake. If you are pro-life in the abortion debate, and then you get yourself a baby at your age with someone you've been with for 5 months.
I wouldn't get married just because of a baby. Get married when you think you're ready. Same with moving out.
Good luck. |

Im not meaning to sound rude, im just going by experiences of other teens that had kids younger and how they felt with it afterwards. Being engaged is ok in my eyes though.

You wanna know something? I was engaged for my first time right after my 16th birthday. I wanted to get married to this boy SO bad because I thought I was ready. WRONG! He and I are no longer together and now I am with a new boyfriend and when I look back I feel really dumb for ever wanting to leap into such big decisions. You are 16 years old and you aren't even through with teenagehood yet so why let your teen years go to waste by wanting to go out to the grocery every week to buy food for your husband to cook for him and getting a job to pay electric, water, and utility bills when you've got everything set out for you at home while you are still young. If you're pregnant that's your own fault, no one can help you there, but I can just tell you you are in for a rough road ahead of you if you really are and/or decide to get married so young. You honestly need to wait it out instead of being selfish. |

Money: -1,374 | Re: marrage at the age of 16 I'm not trying to make you feel horrible, I'm just telling you like it is..how I experienced it, how everyone else thinks as well. You care about what people think about you because that's how most women are, that's how I am, even. What would I do if I found out I was going to bring a child into the world? Well, I'd be shocked as hell because I am not able to get pregnant. But hypothetically if I could and I was in your situation, I'd focus on the baby and what my parents were/are going to think/do about it first. You two don't have to get married just to take care of a baby. And no, I wouldn't want to kill myself if people were calling me a slut. Wanna know why? Because I've been in that situation before..Of course it's not easy but you've got to keep your chin up and travel right on through your problems. If a rumor is going to cause you to want to kill yourself, what are you going to do when you bring a baby into the world and you have BIGGER choices to make. Gonna give up? Leave the baby? Leave him? What? No one hates you because the child is dead. Miscarriages aren't anyones fault, it just happens from a lot of factors. I'm not trying to judge you, I'm just trying to get you to see that things aren't easy and they're going to be a lot LESS easy if you make the choices that you are highly wanting to make. |

Most of my post was regarding the topic. And I was hoping '  ' was sufficient enough to imply I was joking... |

I see where you are coming from there. However just getting engaged in my eyes is to say you are commiting yourself to each other. They could be engaged for years, at least it shows they're sticking together.
I see what you mean over the five months though, especially at your age lol
We're not judging you, well im not, im just giving a sensible answer out, i know how many girls want fun at 16, they cannot possibly handle the responsibility of that, well not many.

Yes, thats true.
I dont mean to sound offensive at all but i've seen loads of teenagers getting partners, but it doesnt always work out. If you end up staying with him for years then i think it would be a good idea.
I dont think anyone is mature enough to have a kid that young, sensible or not.
(And i dont mean the way you act maturity)
Take in good advise, you need to get your career/colleging/life in general before a kid should step into the world.
My brother has been with his partner for four years and theyre still not engaged.
