I just can't believe the gall of some mothers when I walk past them in a store, resturant, or school. They shield their children as if I'm an eyesore. Whatever!

The other day,May 12, I was walking around with my two month old daughter(i am a teenage mother), Michelle, and I received some extremely dirty looks. Is this people just being rude or is there something wrong with me? In some cultures, there are 5 year old mothers, http://snopes.com/pregnant/medina.asp, and no one seems to have a problem with that! Why are people so uncaring towards teenage mothers? I don't believe they know what we have to go through! I was extremely pissed. Anyone have any responses?

 5 Year Old Mothers?? Yeah right... Gotta have a menstral cycle first. Typically that would be around 13. I think you are BS'ing with your story. If you arent ... well, you are just going to have to hold your head up and deal with it. You knew what you were getting into playing grown up, touchy feely games with the boys so now deal with the consequences.

It is pretty common to see teenage mothers in my town. What is also common; they still wear clothing that suggest I am still...open too the public.. Which most responsible people look down at. Especially at the grocery store using Food stamps.

Anyways, getting the dirty looks is part of being a teenage mom.

Seriously, I met a girl today, she was bike riding with her two younger sisters.  I thought she was their mom.  She is really their sister, she is 13, and they are 7 and 5.  But as for you being a teenage mom, don't let it bother you that people don't like it.  There are things that they do themselves that if you found out about are most likely a lot worse than just having a child when you are really young.  I've had kids when I was younger and now I am 40 and have another one.  Being young and being old both have their drawbacks and their advantages.  I get judged now, all the time.  Just blow them off.  All that matters is that you love your kid and do your best, and if you find that your best isn't good enough, you ask someone to help out.  Other than that, you enjoy your child, make sure your child enjoys being your kid, and remember, you have your child with you, not in daycare 24/7 or having your mom or aunt taking care of him or her.  You do your best and forget the rest.
