Why do individuals other suggest the worst of pubescent mothers?

I was raped and became pregnant when I was 13. I didn't shift through with the abortion I went in to find. Having a baby was so much work even with my mother's lend a hand but I tried as hard as I could. But my daughter is a very beautiful youth now, she's the sweetest girl and is an honor student who is on her way to being official to a great university. We've always had a really close relationship and she always listen to my advice. Usually people who know about the circumstances of how i have her and how young I was are really surprised when they meet her and see how she is, because they purely don't expect her to be such a smart, good girl from having such a young mother and no father surrounded by her life. Why is it that people always seem to be to think the worst of teen mothers and think that they are incapable of being honourable parents? What do you think of teen mothers?

the guy who raped me on the other hand was raise in a home with two adult parents next to stable careers and always enough money...he's surrounded by prison now
i think that people merely assume that teenage mothers r sluts, but i think that not all are and i wouldn't ever settle one.

i think its brave to take on a child while being a teen.

It shouldn't situation what age u r that makes if ur a good parent, its ur choices that u make. Source(s): my brain :)
I don't know, I'm a deeply proud teen mum, I don't live up to any of the stereotypes that teen mums have, I have a partner, we have our own place, we aren't on welfare, I get good grades in school, etc. population really should be less judgmental, they say being a teen mum is complex but they don't offer any support just criticism.
because apparently all teenagers love drugs and rock n roll.

p.s; your story is amazing
because they think teens cant manipulate a job a baby and school. but really if they put their mind to it (and within alot of cases they do to support the baby), the can do it...
Answers:    Because most teen mothers are not like you and it sounds like you have wonderful support from your mother. You are the exception and I congratulate you for such a wonderful job. Its not that all or even most teen mothers are "bad" it is just that they are below par equiped and inexperienced to meet the needs of a child. Their brains are not even fully developed and they don't understand the long occupancy consequences of their behavior. By nature of our development teens are often self-centered and spur-of-the-moment which do not make for good parents. Further, without a really perfect support system it is really difficult for them to support their children b/c they are often too young to get a commission then they rely on government assistance which is often particularly off putting to people who work hard to support their own family. It's not just about jobs and money but you entail finanical stability to meet your child's basic needs.
im deeply sorry for your situation, things like that happen to me aswell, although i didnt fall pregnant.
but i fell pregnant at 14, and had my son just until that time my 15th birthday. hes now 5 months, during the pregnancy the father wanted nothing to do near him, but now hes over every single day and night, and be now engaged. the only times when he isnt around is when my step dad is spinal column in town for a week off work, and my step dad wants to kill in cold blood him so he doesnt know i see him, when hes not around it gets very hard but i wouldnt correction it for a moment. i lost all my friends during the pregnancy but it doesnt matter to me, im supporting my son myself by centrelink payments until my boy is older and im confortable to put him within day care so i can get a post, my fionce use to help support us but he just lost his job but be doing fine, most people hate them cause they "cant look after them, and not plenty money to support them" or they cant finish school, but i am doing schooling at tafe and my mother watches him during the day (:
so, to all the teen mum haters, most of us are as virtuous of a mum as any adult!
Good for you, and its ironic, in my experience at tiniest, because those most critical of teen moms are also most pro-life. They should be praising you for not getting an abortion, I mean it happened you're pregnant too late for moralizing in the order of abstinence now.
What you did be amazing. I don't think many women would keep a toddler after being raped. I think most teenagers arn't raped though. Instead they are being clueless more or less sex. And or how a baby can change your life. I know a girl in high school that have a baby kept it for a few months and then gave it up for adoption. A year next after high school she got pregnant again and kept the babe. She has recently had her 3rd little one. Some people just don't get it. She's not married, and seem pretty unstable.
