IMO, Ithink 15 is definately to young, i'm almost 23 and i still want to enjoy life. Babies are a wonderful blessing, but you should enjoy living your young life before having a baby. Second your still supposed to be in school, there is no way you can juggle studies and a baby. Plus you have to be able to support this baby financially..

Yes. If you're 15 and thinking about getting pregnant, lock up your v____a or, better yet, sterilize yourself. No one wants your genes.

Do you live in a state with NO s_x EDUCATION????? If you are 15 and want to have a baby, you need to do some research on the internet. I'm 32 and want a porsche, but I'm not going to go out and get one because I CAN'T AFFORD IT!!!!!

This is such a touchy subject. I have a friend whos younger sister got pregnant at 15. Her boyfriend is no longer around. Her parents have been supporting that baby since it was born. She knew exactly what she was doing. Things happen for a reason? Yes you get pregnant when you dont use a condom and think this will make the "boy" stay around. These girls are old enough to know about contraceptives. We were all that age once, we all have the sense to know what is right and wrong. Noone in her family feels sorry for her, we all know that she did this to herself. She is just lucky to have such caring parents, or else we would be the ones paying for that child. I dont feel sorry for these teenage girls that want to get pregnant. They think about themselves and are extremely selfish. I believe they do it knowing that there are ways to get the support that you need through the Government. THese girls dont even need to work. Im 24 years old, married, in college and have a Home. I KNOW that i could not support a baby emotionally right now. So dont give me the "THings happen for a Reason" Speech.Things happen when little girls put themselves in Grown-Up situations.

i think that 15 is not a young age to get pregnant if your parents accept it and you know what you are doing.

I don't quite understand the question -- yes it's POSSIBLE for most 15 year old girls to conceive, but not recommended for a lot of reasons. If you are pregnant already there are options for you, if you're not pregnant yet -- please don't try until you are finished with highschool, with your own place and a job at least so you can support a child.

Yes I think so its no fun at 15, When I was 15 I ended up pregnant but lost the baby. you should enjoy being a kid a baby is a very big thing I would wait till I was at least 18 enjoy your life now because once you have a baby your life is changed forever

Looks like Lisa hasn't been on in a while so I don't know who we are all posting to, maybe we just need to put our two cents in and on that note I will say, I am so torn on this one because on one hand of course its too young, the only ones who would say it's not is another 15 year old trying to justify her own yearning! I won't say that a 15 yr old can't be a good mom, I think they can, and I do think Children are ALWAYS a blessing but it's kinda like the Bible says, God can take any situation and use it for our good. And accidents are one thing (although I think everyone woman who is old enough to have s_x is old enough to know where babies come from, and know the risk, and around my workplace we say... not preventing IS trying!) but going out deliberatly to have one that age, yeah its too young, God might turn it into a blessing, but it would have been just as big of a blessing at 25 or so and easier too. I know you are wondering where the being 'torn' part is coming in, and here it is...... I wanted a baby at 15, I can definitly understand what that feels like. I thought about it daily. My mom had an in-home daycare for 17 years, I started babysitting when I was 11 and I held a nanny position when I graduated high school for a year, now I help raise my niece, I know what taking care of a child is about. I always have really, and I even felt like in every way, other than finacially, I could have taken care of the child and been great, but that financially thing is BIG!!!! It makes all the difference in the world on whether your mommy or your mommy's mommy! Anyways, I of course made the right decision, I didn't ever even really contemplate actually going out and making a baby, I just wanted one, but now I am in my 20's and I still want one and now if I had one, not only would I still be great in all the other ways that matter, but I could afford health care for my baby and diapers and me and my baby could have a place to live where I am mommy not my mother, and all that great stuff, I can't wait until God decides to bless me with one. I just feel for these children because I can understand how they feel 100%. I wish them all the luck in the world, and wisdom to make the right decision!

I think that when you are ready to have a baby, regardless of your age, that is the right time. For example, most 14 year olds are just young girls, who can't even take care of themselves, let alone another human life. However, there are some people who mature differently, physically, and emotionally. In my personal opinion, there isn't an age that's too young, or too old. As long as you're physically able to have a child, and are ready... I'd say go for it. Of course, said young person would have to be very mature for their age... Having a child is no walk in the park. You'd need to be financially and emotionally stable, it's best to have a father for the child as well. There are very many factors to being a good mother, love is just one.
