Are you out of you mind keep your head in them books and away from the dumb ass boys. How can someone in your age group even yourself be able to raise a child do you have a 9 to 5 job. And it's not your moms problem to take care of it also. So what you are saying is that you want to throw your life away.

The reality is very different to the dream. Ask yourself if you'll be happy babysitting while all your pals are out having fun. After a good night out they'll be sleeping it off while you're tearing your hair out trying to get the baby to sleep, changing shitty diapers, preparing feeds etc.

It's probably your hormones playing up as you grow into a young woman. Ignore them and get on with having some fun in your life instead of wanting to be tied down for at least the next 18 years. You'd be 31 by then - absolutely ancient!

xxbecksyxx agony auntYou could just generally like children, and feel as though you'd like to have one yourself to see what it feels like to care for a youngster.

But, hunny, you're too young to have one now. Wait until you're older, and have a steady relationship with a man you love very much. And even then, you'll have to consider some things.

Do you have enough money to care for the baby?

Are you willing to give up your time to care for it?

Do you have the requirements it will need?

It's fine that you want one. Just wait until you're older.
