What teenager ever thinks she would be a mother by the age of 17 let alone a mother of three by the time she was 21? A bet a lot of them don't. I know I didn't. At the age of 16, I became just another teenage statistic, a statistical momma. That was in 2001. Back then there were no TV shows of teenage pregnancy glamorizing the epidemic or even TV movies like "The Pregnancy Pact" to scare the thoughts of having babies out of young girls' minds. Those things didn't come along until I was 22 and two kids later. If I would have saw those shows back then, I would have definably gave sex a third and fourth thought .

I was young and naive. You never think it would happen to you. I am so tired of seeing these girls from 16 and Pregnant being thrown all around in the media and being paid major cash to be a statistical momma. I work hard for to take care of the babies I brought into this world and trust me when I say I have sacrificed everything for them. Is it fair that so many teenage parents are struggling and they get to be put on a pedestal for going through the "babymomma" and "babydaddy" drama. I don't think so. Why not try to help these teenage parents be all they can be and be role models for their children. Give them some counseling and some skills training, instead of teaching them to pose for a magazine cover. These are just some thoughts. We all know what sells. So can you expect anything more?

so all i got left to do is worry in strife.

if i could only see your face baby i would rest a while

if i could only see your gummy toothless smile

if i could only hold you while your tears fall

and you wail with a deafening call

if i could only be your mother one more time

 

if i could only wipe your face when you have face paint made of food

if i could only teach you how to tell the bad from

When I die please forgive me and walk with me in heaven. I am so sorry, my unborn child. I dont know how but I miscarried you. I guess God had other plans for us.

I'm 3 months pregnant and my parents don't know.  i think there starting to wonder why I'm gaining weight.  I know I'm pregnant because I've went to a doctor and a therapist. My therapist says I should tell my parents that I'm pregnant but I don't know how to.  They'd be so disapointed in me.  I'm there perfect little girl. It wasn't

and ask him why.....

 

 why my cries were

never heard, 

 and why noone ever cared,

and why i was left without you..
