and refused, we went home. I had my daughter at the age of 16. And have never looked back nor regretted it at all.

Now that my daughter is 14 soon, yes it worries me that she will do the same thing I did, yes I think am I protecting her enough. But I think all we can do is support them, teach them to be responsible. I have told my daughter everything.

Don't push your daughter away if she pregnant.
Don't make her feel like she has done the worst thing ever.
Don't force her into

Teenage Pregnancy's - Scary but a reality Nearly 14 year ago I was a teenager who got herself pregnant. I came from a religious background, my parents had divorced, I had a boyfriend that was older than me, and found myself wanting to be loved and the only way I felt I could get that love was to have a baby.

I remember the day like it was yesterday when the test came up positive. I sat in the toliet for over a hour thinking, what the hell am I gonna do now. I hated my mum, my dad didn't like my boyfriend so I didn't talk to him, when I told my boyfriend I was pregnant he dumped me.

So I decided that it was just me and my unborn child from now on.

I hid it from the world, family and friends for 4 months, until one day a letter from a pregnancy info line came address to my mother instead of me came through the mail, then after this day everyone knew.

My mother came and took me home from school, threw the letter at me and asked me " Are you pregnant". I said yes, and that I was having the baby. Well, you can imagine what happened. She yelled, she cried, she yelled more, she told me I was NOT having the baby and that was it. But deep down I think she knew that there was really know way that she could stop me.

In the following weeks, she took me to a abortion clinic, a adoption agency, she even took me to a church where I spoke to a man who deals with teenage mothers, and talks then into adopting their babies to good going church folk. I can't tell you how disgusted I was that there are places like this out there that do this to young girls.

Churches that have there own secret adoption agencies for their church members. he was saying that if I kept the baby I would go to hell, as I am having a child out of wedlock, and there are people in this world and his church that can not have children and I should do the right thing and give up my baby for them. I remember my mother sitting there nodding her head agreeing.

I stuck to my guns and refused, we went home. I had my daughter at the age of 16. And have never looked back nor regretted it at all.

Now that my daughter is 14 soon, yes it worries me that she will do the same thing I did, yes I think am I protecting her enough. But I think all we can do is support them, teach them to be responsible. I have told my daughter everything.

Don't push your daughter away if she pregnant.
Don't make her feel like she has done the worst thing ever.
Don't force her into anything like abortion or adoption. Let her decided.
Don't yell and fight with her to make yourself feel better.
Don't degrade her.

Do let her know that you will support her decision.
Do let her explain what she wants.
Do let her know that she is loved.
Do get her all the info she needs.

Just be with her, and let her know that you love her, no matter what.

Because of my experience with my teenage pregnancy, my mother and I haven't spoken for 10 years, if you treat your daughter the same she won't want to know you. I will never be the same as my mother ever.
