Teen Pregnancy Thoughts...






I can't help avoiding this topic because it applies to me and I have heard so much that I have to voice my opinion on the matter. While I do think that teen pregnancy is okay, I really don't agree with abortion. I have known so many girls who get abortions on the weekends like it is no big deal..Its sickening to see how many girls take the easy way out..I think that Jamie did a good thing by keeping it. But I also think that God never makes a mistake he knows exactly your plan and you have to take the situation with a positive attitude and not a negative one. Also, I am so sick of other moms looking at me like another teen mom, like I have no idea what I'm doing. I can't tell you the number of times I get dirty looks or prejudice talks behind my back because I'm young. I think a lot of young moms are good, but the ones who aren't ruin it for us. I think it depends on the person. I honestly believe that being a mom is my God given gift. I am not a perfect mom and I fail many times but the love I have for my son rises above everything. I would want him to not grow up thinking he was a mistake and other people thought we should have an abortion. What kind of person would say, "Hey, I wanted you dead". That to me is selfish. I have lost many people in my life because I stuck by what I believed was right. What I think the teens of today should do is visit teen moms and see how hard it is I guarentee that a baby is the best form of birth control. Babies are so much work and it is a lifelong committment to your child. I am not condoning teen pregnancy or making it justifable. I am telling My Story and my opinion about me.
