Of course you should not have a baby, don't be selfish. There is no way you can care for a baby at your age. Caring for a baby means more than feeding it and changing diapers. You have to have money first. You need money for clothes and food. This baby won't be a baby forever. Can you afford to send a child to college? Do you have health insurance? Do you have your own place to stay? Do you have a job that will offer maternity leave? Do you have a partner that will cover some of the work? Are you finished with college?

I highly doubt it. So that means that you cannot even come close to giving a baby everything it needs and deserves, and if you had a baby right now it would just be out of selfishness. Think about the baby and wait until you can give it what it needs.

No I dont really think thats a good idea.. I no what its like.
But your only 14, If you had a baby naw, you would find it really really hard to deal with.
While all your friends are going out clubbing or going to a partie, you carnt, mabe your mum or dad would look after him/her once or twice but you wouldnt be able to reliy on them all the time, And also it wount just be you who will get it hard, it will be your mum and dad, mabe your friends but whatt about the baby?
When its older in secondery school, other children may be nasty to it and say "Your mum was a whore!" "Your mums a slag" sounds nasty I no, it could hurt you, but just inmadge how much it will hurt your child! .

Having a baby may make you feel good, but its the whole birth that will hurt you, Your at school! all those things might be called at you!, and the teachers may talk down to you as a stuipd little girl.. I think you should wait till your at least 18, but the best age is in your 20s because then you can finish school and mabe collage or uni.. and get a job and a house.

I no what I've said isnt what you were looking for.. you probllii wanted "Yeahh go for it!!"

But its more then just 4 words, its your whole life..

So please think about it ! x lotz ov love immiie x =]

I dont think that it is a good idea. because you r only 14!! having a baby is hard work. I remember my mom telling when I was born she was 24 and she thought she was in hell. so if my mom couldnt do it can u? I dont think so. remember do not have a baby!! wait till your married and your an adult!! ok? do not have a baby!! im warning u!! please take my advice into consideration.

No I don't think you should have a baby. You may think you want one but when you have one you'll wish you hadn't, at that age its unnatural.

Good wishes and fortune on your journeys Árístocrát

Trust me, you don't want a baby. Sometimes they're fun to be around and take care of, but your not there 24/7.

I think its easier to want a baby when its not yours. There are a lot of things "behind the curtains" that you dont see, the constant crying in the middle of the night, the nausea during pregnancy, the thousands of dollars that have to be put into the care of a baby of your own. I think the best advice that I could give you is maybe start baby sitting. You have plenty of time to have kids in the future when you are older and more mentally and financially stable. I think having a childhood yourself will help you with your baby in the future. I never understood when people told me to enjoy my childhood because I would never get it back, but after years of no understanding, getting married, buying a house, and getting pregnant I've finally figured out what they meant. Dont grow up too soon because you will regret it later.

omg hun you are way too young to have a kid. beside all that that was already said about yoyr life literally turning upside down. you have to think about yourself medically. the younger you are the more of a chance that there will be complications with the pregancy. You can die form childbirth or pregnacy. Being only 14 puts you at a high risk for all of that. believe me there will be plenty of time in your life for childern right now you need experiance life and just have fun being a teenager I miss being in high school life was easy and a little less complicated. I suggest you wait untill your out of collage or university and are on your feet with a great job then you can go crazy with having babies.

In my opinion you are a bit young. If you have a child at your age it will destroy part of your life. You won't have time for school and you won't be able to go out and chat with friends. You will have to pay for medical and clothing along with food unless someone will give you money. As said before there is a chance you could die in childbrith. Wait a few years and once you get a job and sturdy feet under you then you might want to consider a baby. You have to come and realize that babys aren't all fun. When they grow you have to deal with attitudes and then what if you have a girl and they want a child at 13. I am not saying that you can not have a child at your age but you should really think about it.

I have a niece and I love her to death. She is so much fun. But I've also seen the other side of her b/c I babysit a lot. They aren't all fun and games. Being 14, your body isn't ready for it and your mind/maturity level isn't either. My advice, enjoy your nephew and watch him grow. If you can take care of him as he grows, you will be better prepared in the future.

you should never get pregnant this early. At 14 years old you are still in school, probably a freshman in high school. you still have your whole life to have kids. So wait. And wait for the right guy.

You need to screw your head on straight, and grow up. If your seriously considering having a baby at the age of 14, that shows that you are already predisposed to make terrible decisions and you are in for a life of hard knocks. look at some of these answers posted by people who are your age. they also say they want children and they can barely spell. Grow up first. Good luck.

hello I can understand you wanting a baby there soo cute and they laugh and smile but on the flip side theres much more to it the feeding , diaper changing, waking up all hours of the night when there sick going to the emergency room because your baby has a fever of 103 its very hard basically you have to put your wants and needs on the back burner because now its all about that child it will depend on you till he'she is 18 and evan now days they tend to still want your help its never ending basically im 25 I had my son at 18 I was a young kid my self I thought I was ready but I wasnt it was really hard all my friends were going out , getting new cars having parties wearing hip clothes and I was at home with my son
you have to think the guy you have the child with is probibly just a s young as you and a lot of them tend to not stick around wgich means you will be alone which is more dfficult hope this helps ..missv
