Im 15 and really want a baby?

Question

Okay, i really want a baby. I really want something to love and love me back, and something that's mine and i can look after.

But then again i don't want a baby because i know i haven't finished my education, i can't afford it financially and i have my whole life ahead of me still, but i can't stop thinking about how much i want to have a baby.

Anyone got any ideas on something to change my mind, like one of them baby-think-it-overs or a ready-or-not-tot but i don't have much money and they're like, at least £200 each. Is there any similar products on the market that aren't so expensive? I looked after a baby-think-it-over for a weekend for school and i really enjoyed it :) were only allowed it for 1 weekend thou so i can't ask to have it again. Like i said i would like one of them baby-think-it-overs or a ready-or-not-tot but i don't have much money and they're like, at least £200 each. Is there any similar products on the market that aren't so expensive? I've looked on ebay and amazon and i can't find anything. It's the only thing i can think of that's realistic and will put me off. Thank you x x

Answer 1

Finish school. Do you really want your whole life based on looking after a kid? If you can't affordd a class how can you afford the  baby? Have a life first. Get a pet for a friend now!

Answer 2

Why don't you first try volunteering at a hospital in the pediatrics ward or at an daycare center.

Answer 3

DON"T HAVE A KID. WAIT FOR THE RIGHT GUY. YOU CAN WAIT. One of the people in front of me said "rou are really f*cked up". No offense, but I'm saying the same thing, only more "politely".

Answer 4

Are you kidding me?

Tell you what you need to do.

Go to school, get a good career and then focus on having kids.

Sure, you can wipe your own ***, but you cannot support a kid financilly! why would you be selfish enough to make your parents pay for everything? it can get expensive.

PS, look up colic and different mental retardations online.

Your baby could end up with it.

That would make you think twice.

Answer 5

Damnit you are waaay to young to have a child.Do you even know the consequences? This is a life time committment. If you want something or some one to love you back then get a puppy or a kitten. Don't get pregnant and then expect the american tax payers to pay for it.  

Answer 6

get a pet or something, dont have a baby

its total neglect to a child to have one if your a child yourself and cant take care of her

for 2 your body isnt even close to being developed for a child.

Answer 7

Ur Dumb for asking this question h**l!!! No!!! u should not have a baby at this age is stupid wants u have ur baby who going to take care of it when ur gona to school if u say ur family they may not want to take care of the baby. So hopefully anwserd ur question excuse my language too.

Answer 8

You don't want a baby. Sure they are cute and cuddly when they are newborn but they grow up quickly and as a teenager, you cannot be ready for it when they do. You will not be able to support the child financially and you will never get a decent job if you are spending the rest of your high school education caring for a child. Please don't throw away your teenage years. If you want something to look after, try a puppy.

Answer 9

biologically,you're ready...but in this society,you are psycologically and financially ill-prepared...

Answer 10

Get a puppy

Give yourself time

Grow up

Travel

Have fun

Go to college, fine you before you have a child

Babysit

Enjoy being young

Answer 11

Become a nanny or a full time baby-sitter and see how you like that.

Wait until you have some income before you make the most expensive choice of your life.

Answer 12

I suggest very strongly that you take a job as a nanny/mother's helper.  Every person I've ever known who did that learned first hand what caring for children really takes and they're in their 20s and 30s and aren't ready yet.  And Stephanie B. has an excellent idea -- do it for free -- because that's what mothering pays -- nothing.  You do the hardest job in the world and get paid nada for doing it.

Answer 13

I can't believe you're even talking about this at 15 years old. You are not old enough to have a baby, you're still a baby yourself.  

Answer 14

Have education, job, house to live and then think about a baby. Then you will be happy for rest of your life. what you wrote above is the silly thought of a teenager which comes from excitement, not from experience. The reality of life is different and please dont do it now. A baby at right age is a blessing but at wrong age is a burden. So study, get a degree and a job first.

Answer 15

wow kid your way to young and way to much to  look foward in your life...once u have a baby then the fun is over...your gonna be wakin up ever second no sleep no rest no fun...and ur look will change completly it will be bad ....and not only will you sufer so will your baby...please be smart dont have a baby just yet!!!get a pet instead.

Answer 16

For now, love yourself; take care of yourself, plan for the future, plan to be the best person your child can have as a mother. That means living, experiencing life. This time in your life should be about you, you have many, many years, to take care of a family. Good luck.

Answer 17

Sleep with a lot of guys and dont use protection

Answer 18

i used to when i was 14. but not enough to have one. formula alone is up in the hundreds for A MONTH. and that's only if you do get pregnant wit twins...or sextuplets. if you can't even afford a good baby simulator how can you afford the actual thing? anyway you may be going through a lot right now. (i was) i suggest you talk to a close friend about it and stay away from lil boys!

Answer 19

trust me u dow want a kid they am more trouble than they are worth. you want a kid for the wrong reasons. take a look at the link i've added below.

hope this helps good luck. :)

Answer 20

Your crazy, you don't want a baby.  Seriously, are you an only child, i have two younger brothers, and i have seen the trouble my parents go through.  Buy a puppy, it loves you if you love it, and you must take care of it.  It's just like a baby. Only not such a stupid decision.

Answer 21

dont. have. a. baby.

dont mess up your life yet.

i say get a puppy, or start babysitting or something like that. or ask your mom to have a baby. that way you can see him/her all the time.  

Answer 22

Have you tried babysitting various age groups, every day, without pay? I'm sure the parents would greatly appreciate it, and it may change your views after a few weeks of not being able to do much.

Answer 23

Start babysitting.  Do that for a year and then, if you still want a kid, you are at least old enough to have a job.

Instead of a baby, get a pet.  They need care like a baby does and will love you unconditionally.  Except for cats.  They are mean little effers.

Answer 24

Having a baby will:

Make you fat.

Make you cranky.

Make you poor.

Make it harder to find a quality man.

Keep you un-educated.

Ruin your social-life.

Ruin your FUTURE s*x-life.

Ruin your sleep.

Make your friends leave and not want to hang out with you.

My advice... adopt a rescue dog and pamper him. He will love you unconditionally and you can leave him at home when you go out with your girlfriends.

PLEASE be smart little girl.  

Answer 25

you need to grow up.  why make your baby part of your problem do what you got to do to be a successful person then have a child.  This way you can give your child more than love.  Food, Clothes, home, with out the help of the government or tax payers.

Answer 26

Are you thinking of the baby or your own selfish wants?

You are too young to have a baby. Bringing a life into the world is a heavy resposibility, not just something fun to do

Answer 27

no, h**l no. don't get a baby. get married, then worry about the baby. a baby is a buttload of time, responsibility, money, and... responsibility... i couldn't think of anything else but responsibility is doubly important. with a daddy you would have help with the upbringing, as well as a source of income to house and feed yourselves, and the easiest way to find and keep a daddy is to get married first

Answer 28

Wow you are too young to have a baby let alone care for the tot.  I realize you want something to love you so why not get a dog or cat.  If this doesn't help then try and volunteer or babysit for someone. Caring for a baby is a 24 hour job and believe me it just may be your hormones kicking in.

Answer 29

Answer 30

I feel u just need something or someone 2 love, as u must feel alone...a baby is certainly not the answer, as yea they're cute & amazing, but they r very hard work & u have 2 dedicate ur whole life 2 them....find a hobby or a good friend 2 do things with..Don't b in a rush 2 lose ur life

Answer 31

Well maybe if you cant afford a product like that maybe a family friend or family member can sllow you to watch thier baby but maybe them being there just incase like on that show the baby barrowers.

Maybe just try changing your mind set, you could try to busy up your schedule so there isnt room to have that on your mind
