hey you all. alright so i have a question: should i become sexually active? i'm really madly in love with my boyfriend of a year, but the thing is that if anyone found out, id be excommunicated from my family and community. what do you guys think?
I have recently thought i was pregnant and it was one of the biggest scares of my life. I had to the hospital and get tested and the whole time all i could do was cry. I do not have sex because i think its cool.
Although i know people who do. Although i don't blame teenage girls, like drugs i believe that young girls have sex under peer pressure. If your friends are having sex and the boyfriend wants to then of course your going to want to fit in.
Its hard to be a teenager in todays socity and most of the time teenagers dont think about there actions and they will do whatever the have to too fit in.

i am a teenager.. i am 16 years old.. and i just found out today that i am pregnant..i never thought anything of it untill it happened.. i never got pregnant before and i thought that it wouldnt happen and it did... i have been with my boyfriend for almost 2 years and now we have a baby on the way...currently i have not told any of my family. He told his mother but she wants me to get an abortion. Never get an abortion though. She is making me feel like crap though.. i have no idea what to do.

No i dont think so, but i also dont think it is all a bad thing, because God wont give you anything you couldent handle. Haveing a baby is a blessing. If you cant understand that you shouldent have opend your legs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm 19 and i'm about to have my second child.i was 13 when i got pregnant and turn 14 when i had my son.my baby was no mistake i love him with all my heart.i'm still with my baby's daddy.we been togeather for 5 years going on 6.we plan to get married.no baby in this world is a mistake it's a miracle.if are moms would of got abortions we wouldn't be here today.i don't believe in abortions.god gives everyone a reason to be here.killing incent babys is stupid nobody deserves to die not like that.i'm going to college and live my life.just becouse you have a baby doesn't mean your life is destroyed.you can still have fun and enjoy your life.my parents whatched my baby while i went out on a saturday to enjoy a movie or something.
Okay i am 16 turning 17 in 5 months i have had sex and girls i just want to say dont go out there in this world and have sex with some one u dont know or unprotected sex for that matter! Because the people u think u know u dont know what they have u dont know what they could have and they dont know it yet just dont put ur self in that place of having sex with any one unless u can say that ya'll could possibly be together for ever! I thought at one point in time that i wanted a kid just because i was lonely thank god i had someone to talk to because i was seriously going to have a baby so i wouldnt be a lone and i look at my friend and she is pregnant and she was having unprotected sex because she thinks she loves this guy and she now doesnt want to have that life of having a baby because she cant do things she likes! All i am saying is dont do it for any one one else but do it for your self and hang in there and not go out and have unprotected sex or even have sex because u think it is cool or u think if u dont have sex and u tell ur friends u cant be in that croud its not worth losin ur virginity to someone u dont love or u know it wont last!!! If u have any thing to say or ask just email me or if u need to talk to someone i am here i have went threw alot with friends and family and things i have learned on my own!!!

i pity the poor woman who has 30 high school students staring at her when she is in stirrups, gasping for breath, exhausted, in pain, pushing out an 8 pound baby over 10 hours.
i know what you're saying, though - watching a woman give birth is quite a nerve-racking experience.

im pregnant and im only 17 and i think that being pregnant isnt the worst thing that can happen to someone. im not all that mad but i cant wait.. and for those who got preganant and are mothers congrads.. its life and its going to get better HEY THINK OF IT THIS WAY you'll never be alone..
im 17 and IM pregnant right now im due in ocotber 9 of this year 2006 and in a way im disapointed in my self but i cant live with it the rest of my life. i plan on going to school still my boyfreind is supportive and we havent been togeather for along time but when we get a little older he wanted to get married but that is kinda moving a little fast but what can i say i have a baby on the way.. i dont no what it is yet but my boyfriend is hoping its a boy just like all guys... lol i hope its a gurl. i think if you are having sex unprotected than your askig to have a baby and im my case i guess you can say that.. but im saying teen pregnacy isnt bad but its not the best thing to do to your self.. BUT HEY AFTER YOU GET SKINNEyer faster than someone that is like in there 20s lol thats good.
I totally agree that becoming a teenage parent is something you have to think over and over seriously.It will harm you a lot if you have no knowledge about sexual safe and knowledge of taking care for babies as having a child while you are also a child can make you fall into depressed, disappoited spirit because you have to take such big responsibility, and besides,its influence can haunt you your whole life.
there are SOOOOO many teens in my senior class that are pregnant or have kids already...i think that is sad...im a virgin ( HELL YEAH)..y have sex in high school..oh right, cuz your in love mhm, whatever...teens need to be alot more careful...3words (or 2??)mandatory birth control!!
Man o man is that funny! A trip to a live birth.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Sorry for laughing so much but man is that good stuff. Anyway I bet a whole lot of people would stop making love after watching something like that happen. I also have an idea of what they could see and thats a c section, the part where they put the placenta up on her stomach and just let it chill there would probley make any one think twice about getting pregnant.

The real question here is not whether or not teen pregancy is a problem, but how to lower the number of teen pregancies. Abstinance programs, contraceptives, how should we go about doing this?
I can't believe how many teen pregnancy posts are on here now. Oh well, new members, old topics, right? Well, just wanted to mention a few things to you, cool. First of all, who in their right mind thinks teen pregnancy is "cool"? My gosh. Secondly, I don't know if "stupid" is the correct term. Maybe "careless thinking" would be better? Third, it's pregnancy, not "pregnantcy". Fourth, if anyone wants to read my thoughts on teen pregnancy I pretty much said all I had to say here. Keep in mind I wrote that post in September '02'. Since then my friend I mentioned in there has had her baby boy, and is doing fine, living with and being supported by her long-term bf. Let me lastly say, her son was not a mistake. Just a little early. =)
