Answer 2

You must be looking for love. This is not the answer. Why don't you try to find someone who is willing to let you help out with their baby for a few days..day AND NIGHT. you will no longer what a baby..i'm almost positive.

Answer 3

nothing wrong that you want a baby. but you should wait a few more years and get out of school and get a good job and marry the guy yyou love so that baby can have a good safe environment and grow up happy! =]

Answer 4

Babies are cute, for a while.  then they get to be people.  have loose stool three or four times a day.  Get deydrated. Rush to ER.  

Then throws up on your  Prom Dress before the sitter gets there.  Grabs things and tosses them around, puts stuff in their mouths and scare you to death by choking, Pulls table clothes down on them with cups of hot hot tea sitting there. chest and back burns, high fevers, rashes, funny breathing, stuff in their eyes, ate something dangerous. Got into bug poison, eats your eye makeup, drinks dishsoap...RUSH to ER.. spend all night there.  

Babies cry all night when they teeth, nothing consoles them.  They get bellyaches, they cry, diaper rash, they cry, get grouchy, they cry, feel sad and neglected they cry,  Don't want to sleep or take naps, want to feed themselves before they are able to, rub food in their hairs, rub p**p all over the bed.  Pee in your bed..fall asleep about ten minutes before you have to be up to go to work..  

Nothing wrong if you want all that at 16...just do not expect anyone else to share the load.  Or Pay your way.

Answer 5

There's nothing wrong with wanting to have a baby as long as you can take care of him/her but try to finish school before you do.

Answer 6

To want a baby is fine. To actually try to have a baby: not so fine.

A baby deserves a mother who will be able to support him/her and take care of him/her without help from the mothers parents.

And a mother who is an adult.

Answer 7

what makes u want to have a baby at that age?????????

There is a lot of wrong thing about having a baby at that age, how will you support ur baby at that age, whats gonna happend when ur girlfriends are out parting and ur at home siting changing diapers and feeding a baby, not that there something wrong with that but at ur age I think u should go to school enjoy ur high school time, go to college so that then,  u can have something to offer to ur baby at a more mature time!

I had my daughter at the age of 19 I now I think I should of waited!!!!!!!

Answer 8

You are freakin' retarded. Don't you want an ipod or something? They will entertain you longer without being a total pain . . .

Answer 9

When i was 16 i wanted a lot of things, one was a tattoo of the banana chick on my forearm, that i don't now.  So what i'm trying to say is when ur that age u just want, u don't really think of why.

Answer 10

yes i find alot wrong with it your to young,you wont finish school, you need money, place to live, and a boy willing to stay with you to raise a baby

Answer 11

Yes because you need to grow up first. Please finish school

and be able to give your child a loving home with both parents.  Also children are very expensive so you need to have a good paying job.  Enjoy your child hood for now and

wait until you can give a child all they deserve. Your child would be so glad you waited. Don't be selfish.

Answer 12

You're a woman -- it's perfectly natural that you should want a baby.  It's genetically inbred in you.

However, in addition to hormones, you also have a brain -- use it.  Don't have a baby unless you are financially, emotionally and mentally prepared to care for a baby ON YOUR OWN and can provide a home and a father for the baby.

Answer 13

It is a natural instinct. i wanted one when i was 14. but you should do something like work at a daycare, so that you will not actually have a baby, because you would be shunned from our society. (but naturally there is nothing wrong with it, in my view either!)

Answer 14

The thing that I see wrong with that is the fact that ur 16. I mean, I want a kid, but not till I'm at least 10 years older (im 14). But i mean, if u want to ruin ur life by having a kid now, go for it! but i would suggest that u dont. just babysit a lot so that ull be near kids a lot and wont actually have to take 24/7 responsibility for one.

Answer 15

I depends on what you mean by want a baby. Do you literally want to have one- now? Like, are you going to try to have a baby? Or do you want a baby sometime in the future? It's normal to have a desire at your age to have a baby "someday". It's not good if you desire to have one- next week.

Babysit and enjoy babies that way. It's not really all that great at your age. Trust me.

Answer 16

I was like that too. Don't have one now though. You'll ruin your life. Finish college, get a job and then find the right guy for you.

Answer 17

YES..

Answer 18

I had my son when I was 17 and I have absolutely no regrets. However, I was in a stable relationship, living with my partner, mentally mature, and just basically ready. Everyone will judge and say how youre too young and all that, but actually only you can tell if youre ready or not. Please please please do not ruh into anything! Make sure youre ready before you do anything! Remember that you also need to think about STI's if youre having unprotected s*x. I really think people are way too quick to judge because of your age and its really out of order. Everyone is different. I know 30 year olds who are way worse mothers than most 16 year olds!

BTW, I'm 20 now, my son is 3 in Nov, and me and my partner are still together. Its been hard sometimes but I wouldnt change anything for the world!

Answer 19

you are to young, your still a young lady yourself. go, finish school, have some fun, do something like travel or something.  Then think about it again.

Answer 20

It's normal to think the way you do about it. There nothing wrong, you might just see how cute babies are. But I would tell you this, don't force yourself into having a child right now, while your still a child, still at school and no working. Wait till you find the right person to fall in love with, and once your happy to settle down, think about having a baby then.

Answer 21

no not really... i am 16 too and i really really want to have a baby too. ive been talking to my boyfriend about it but he thinks im crazy... i think alot of girls our age want babies but the guys dont

Answer 22

Well, personally I wouldn't do it (well...I'm 18 now). But, if you want to do it, then do it...who's going to stop you?

Just remember (and I'm not trying to insult you or anything) that raising a baby isn't like one of those toy dolls from the store that will just sleep through the night if you push the "off" button...if that child is hungry and has a dirty diaper at 3 A.M...they will let you know...LOUDLY.

It takes a lot of time and effort to raise a child and you can't afford to go to school to get a good career....and sad to say, most jobs nowadays require a post-secondary education.

But...it's your choice; I can't stop you.

Answer 23

Yes.. there is nothing wrong with thinking that you want a baby.. but your still way way way to young to have one.. I know you think that you may be old enough now but just wait in a few years your going to be thanking yourself for not doing that.. i remember being your age as well and wanting a child.. i thought i was old enough and that that was really really want i wanted. but, now i can say that i am so so so glad that i have waiting and you will be too. you got so much more fun to experience before you have children.. move slow you got lots of time.

Answer 24

Wanting a baby is natural at your age. Having one will make your life more difficult than you can imagine. Wait until you have your life together.

Answer 25

no. there's nothing wrong with that. i'm sure LOTS of people ur age want baby's. seems natural to me. it's just u better be married before u have a baby and if u do decide to have a baby soon u should be able to support it.

Answer 26

u mite want a baby.but habing a baby is a huge responsiblity trust me.....I know u prob go out with your friends once u have the baby u can't go out with friends.u'll be up all nite....u won't have a life........ Just wait trust me.

Answer 27

Theres nothing wrong with wanting children, but you need to know that its probably not a good idea at your age. You are most likely still in school, and that can be tough to complete with a baby. The best thing to do is wait til you are in your twenties before having a baby, that way you can support your baby and celebrate the good things having a child brings :) That way you are done school and have a means to support a family.

Answer 28

It's fine to have a maternal instinct at a young age!  Think about it:  as little girls we play house, we play with dolls, we play as if we are a mom!  However, you are only 16...finish high school, go on to college, get a career, meet a man, get married, buy a house, and then think about having a baby!

Answer 29

Yes , I see something wrong with that. First of all , you are likely still in school , no college in view yet. Don't have a great paying job without a education that means no great means to take care of a child. A child is a great life time responsibility and should not be taken likely. You need to be married so the father can share the responsibility  and be in the child's life so you can raise a productive child with a stable foundation. You have plenty of time to start a family. Set goals and reach those goals  , then think about a child.  You will only cause the child to suffer from unstableness so love it enough to wait.

Answer 30

I don't see anything in WANTING a baby.I do too.(just not now or bad enough to actually have s*x)

It's just your womanly instincts and hormones are kicking in.

Answer 31

sweetie its normal to want  a baby, but dont get to rushed into it.

Mentally for you: i dont see anything wrong with you wanting a baby

Physically: dont be to sure, trust me, my sister had a baby at the age of 17 and ended up on the streets.

dont rush into it and when u think u're ready, make sure ur 1 million percent ready
