Hello and thank you for emailing Spiderbytes.
Right now you say that you want to get pregnant when you are 16 or 17,
but you may also feel differently about that in 5 or 6 years. We're not
sure if you are home schooled and that's the reason you said you don't
go to school. If this is something the bothers you or you are bored at
home, having a baby may not be the answer. You might want to talk to
your care givers about going to school. If you are not being taught at
all, you should know that in Canada people who are 11 years old legally
have to be in school or home schooled. The Government of Canada legal
policy website states that: "With some exceptions, youth in Canada are
required legally to stay in school until the age of 16."
You may want to consider what is so appealing about being a teen mother
and will you be mentally, emotionally and financially prepared to
support a baby? You also have to realize that having a baby - at any
age - is a huge responsibility and you will have to look after this
child for a very long time. It can be very tiring staying up at night
with a crying baby and having to feed him or her every few hours. With
everything in life, there are good and bad aspects of being a parent.
Having a child at age 16 or 17 means that you may not be able to go out
with your friends anymore and you could have to work in order to pay for
everything the baby needs, and supplies like diapers are expensive.
We don't know your situation or if someone is willing to help support
you. It is your choice to decide if you want to have a child and at
what age. There are lots of great teen mothers out there but most will
tell you that it's not easy being forced to grow up fast and to start
taking care of someone else when you still need to be supported
yourself. Depending on where you live, there are programs for young
mothers that can provide clothing exchange, parenting classes and
schooling for women who want to finish high school.
Since you aren't planning on getting pregnant any time soon, you may
want to do some research and really find out what it's like being
pregnant and being a teen mother. You may decide that it will be easier
to wait untill you are older and can support a family on your own or you
may not. Regardless, talking to teen mothers and pregnant teens will
probably give you the most accurate picture of what it's really like
raising a child as a teenager. If you live in Toronto, Canada you could
go to Jessie's which is a centre for pregnant teens and new teen
parents. It is located around Parliament and Dundas and you can phone
them and ask if you could come down and talk to some of the women who go
there about teen parenting. The number for Jessie's is (416) 365-1888.
You may be ready for this yet, but in the future it may be worth
looking into for more information and better understanding.
