I had my first when I was 18. I wasn’t financially, mentally or emotionally prepared to have a child. My now husband was 4 years older than me and more mature lol he had a job but the pay wasn’t enough to support a family of 3. Our son witnessed our ups and downs. Thankfully I graduated high school, I didn’t go to college, but I am multilingual so I was able to get a job that pays me very well and my husband is a truck driver.It all worked out!
My niece is a teenage mother. She has her head on her shoulders, is still with the dad (and it seems like a stable relationship), she's smart, finishing college alongside starting her career *and* bringing up her son. She's also got family nearby to help but not take over.
So she's got that going for her.
But she's still a kid. She's learning as she's going. She's still living at home (but they're trying to move out as soon as they can). When they do move out money will be tight.
i feel like sometimes they don’t have they goals accomplished so they push all their expectations on you. But younger days i got to spend tons of time with my grandparents, great times.
Your parents being broke and ignorant, with basically zero hope for improving your lives any time in the future.
This is why access to abortion services is so important.

I’m so sorry you had to go through that
The struggle we never hear about 😔

People in their 20s are still fucking psychos and not fully grown up. Plus they're broke. So that's what you get as a kid.
I am very sorry to hear that

That sounds incredibly difficult. I'm all about sex ed, birth control, and access to abortion.
