parenting young adults
A question for all adolescents and young adults who are parents ……….?
How would your life (and lifestyle) after changing your child? How old were you when you became a parent? Any advice for teens and young adults who are not parents? Is there something about being a father at that age, most people do not know? Is it wise to have as much fun (parties, hanging out with friends, etc) as you can before becoming parents?
I became pregnant at 16, my son was a week after he turned 17. In fact, everything changes, because all of a sudden his life and time dedicated to someone else instead of yourself alone. When I was pregnant I majorly doubt that I would be able to handle being a father, but when it comes to ride and I managed very well. Sure its hard but very rewarding and exausting and have so many amazing experiences. Before having my son I was a teenager, on average, mainly focused in school, friends and me, but being a father made me grow up very quickly. I have even less time now to make friends and party miss the opportunity, but I think when a father who cares more for their social lives of their children, that is just wrong. My son is two now, a little demon at a time and a little angel to others and I love her to pieces!
