Teen mothers, on there own.


Teen Pregnancy has become a much known thing threw out the United States. It’s been proven that one out of three teenage girls will become pregnant before the age of 19.  This costs the United States at least seven billion dollars annually. Most of the pregnancies are unintended or unplanned. But I believe that it took two people to make the baby there for both of those persons should respond and be able to take care of the baby but in many of these teenage pregnancies only the mother responds for the actions and the father just walks away because either he’s scared or just simply doesn’t care for the baby. It is also a fact that most teen mothers (fathers as well when they stay) usually don’t finish high school about 1/3 receive their high school diplomas and only 1.5% attend college. This means that these girls have basically thrown all their dreams out the window and changed them for dippers a job and there baby.

Teen fathers usually leave because they are not mature enough to respond for their actions as ithas been proven. They don’t understand that the mother as well as they isn’t ready yet she will have to deal with it. There excuse is always they were scared the funny thing about that I that the girl is probably twice as scared as him. They have no room to jump up and run away because they are supposable ‘scared” when the girl will be the one dealing with this little person growing inside of her and watching how her body as well as her life is totally going to change in the next eight to nine months. Boys always tend to run away from problems, real men stick around because they know the messed up and they have the courage to stand up for it.
I have alot of respect for all these teen mothers that havnt let anything out them down and our fighting for there babys happiness ass well as there own. They have to raise a child on there own and they will have to get a job and alot of family support, which i believe is one of the  biggest reasons teen moms make it. Not having a father figure may affect the babys life, either the child can grow up knowing he lives a difrent life from alot of the other kids and will want the same future for there own children or they will just think they can do the same and it'll be okay. This all depends on how the mother raises the baby, there will be alot of pressure on the mother to raise there kids threw the right path, but many of these mothers and there babys make it threw life an do just great after all the struggles.
On the channel MTV the show “Teen Mom” represents a lot of these girls in the world that have become pregnant at a very short age and are now single mothers having to deal with loosing their childhood to grow up and take care of a kid when they are kids themselves. This show also proves that most teen parents end up separated by the time there baby turns one year old. All these girls but one have divorced or broke up and have not a very good bond with their baby’s dads. Yet the mothers are the ones that have the baby and take care of them no matter what, while the fathers are the only ones that get to go out get drunk and party and don’t pay child support. But with the time the teen fathers come around and realize they have done wrong by just abandoning the babies and their mothers yet it takes them time and by this time the mother has already began a life without him, doing just fine.
Whatever the reason may be for the father running away, the mother has to stick with the baby and im sure that by time she becomes used to being on her own. i believe girls become very independent and mature very want it or not they have to adapt to there new lifes. A baby is a big responsability and it shouldnt be taken as a joke that you can forget for a couple of days and then come back after going out and parting. Its a real life person whom from then on you will have to dedicate your life to because they depend on you, and if the mothers gonna be left alone it makes it even harder for her to enjoy her life but after time i think they'll look back on everything they have gone threw and be very proud of herself, and i am very sure there child will be as well. They have proven in many ways that this may be a mans world, but they cant face like woman can.
