Um, presumably so you don't regret it. A lot of people regret having children so young so it could be that? I don't know.
having a child means never putting yourself first again. never spending that extra cash on that new DVD you want, or those cool trainers, cause the baby needs nappies and milk. never just taking off and having a night out with your mates, cause you need to arrange a babysitter and no-one's able to do it. never having a lie in on a sunday, cause your exuberant 2-year-old is bouncing on your bed at 6 in the morning demanding to be taken to the park.
are you ready for that?
OMG, that's just the START of it! Wait till they're teenagers. If only people understood the headaches and the heartaches they can really bring you. But then no, maybe not - no-one would ever have kids.
i didn't want to kill off the human race, just delay people for a few years.
that's why i didn't mention the teenagers
Some people say its so you can have a life before children but you do have a life, its just a different one. If you don't like putting someone else first all the time, you aren't ready for children.
there's young, and there's young, though.
in your early to mid twenties you are young, but i also think at that age most people are mature enough to think through having babies properly. you're also independant and have a good awareness of the financial side of raising a family.
the original poster, according to his profile, is 16. and in my opinion, that is too young.
Thats what i meant, as i said i wouldn't want to be a teen mum.
But i would just like to take it to parks, bouce on my bed, 1st Xmas etc.

Yes i am the guy who doesnt want a baby in my house - but thats becasuse its not mine, and my mum with have to fork out paying for the baby. And your own baby is diffrent right.
