I guess when a teen becomes pregnant at a young age , you can expect to be judged. but, its crazy when your own mother puts you down. I am currently 18 years old, got pregnant a few weeks before my 18 birthday. Ive been with the same guy for 3 years and till this day were still going strong through all the hard times. well, when i first told my mother she was excited about being a grandmother.this didnt last long though. a few weeks later my mother called me numerous names from a *****, to a loser and even said i was going to be a horrible mother. she kicked me out and told me she hoped i died. loving right? she even took me off her insurance. luckily i got my own. but i had sufffered her abuse since being a kid so i was used to it. i just believe its funny how my own mother who dropped out of highschool , had six kids & didnt get her life together till i turned 18 could be so cruel. well, to prove her wrong me & my babys father moved out to our own place, pay our own phone , electicity, gas/heat, rent, groceries & other necessities. we do this without our parents help. Not to mention we have two cars that we got on our own. My bf works & were both taking college classes & plan to pursue our education. (i wanna be a dental assistant then hygenist). We even have everything we need for the baby. from crib, 30 or so bottles,clothes to swings. just everything even love. because even though this baby wasnt planned he is a blessing. he motivates me 3x more to do what i need to. hes my everything and hes not even here. i know times are going to be hard but i know i can do this. not only because his father is there but because my baby means more than life itself to me. and i will do anything for him. well after all that my mother wants to try and now be in my life . she didnt even apologize she acted like nothing happened. is this crazy if i dont want much to do with her? she doubted me. and put me down. who said teen mothers cant be grwat parents? because regaurdless i know im goingto be the best for my son. without the help of others. i like to handle my own business. sorry for this long post just wanted to rant about how things have been so far. I believe im doing more than what i should. a great job.
