Is it normal to want this..

Is it normal to be 17 years old and want to have a baby? Like I don't care if the baby wouldn't have a father in it's life I just want to be a mommy so bad.

    Also, you said you don't care if the baby has a father on their life. My experiences are children want a dad.

    The type of person who wants a child at your age or early 20s are white trash.

    Its normal to want to be a teen mother yes. But to the extent you want a child is not healthy! And to be honest if my mother told me she wanted a baby so bad that she didn't care if I had a father so she slept with the whole city of chicago to have me, then I wouldn't forgive her! Please wait! I'm 20 and have no kids I'm not ready but I will tell u I'm an aunt to over 20 kids and trust honey its not as easy as u think it is, their cute face and button nose can turn urs into a depressed looking one! I'm just saying!

    If you can support it I say go ahead. Some people's motherly instincts are stronger than others.

    I want to be a father so bad, but i know at this age (18) I'm not nearly a mature to cope with the stresses of fatherhood (Even if i think i am). But i do want a child or children when I'm older maybe about 22 or just until i find that special person who is willing to carry our child :)

    Don't you want your baby to be happy and have a good life? Your being selfish and not thinking about the baby at all wait till your older wiser so your baby can have a good mother. Do you even know how hard it is to take care and provide for a baby full time?

  • You think that when you look after one, but when you have your own you can't give it back...

    Thank you. I agree. Babys can't say anything hurtful and they are so clueless to anything bad ever happening. It's just very relaxing to be around them. Not to mention they are cute.

    I wanted a baby when I was like 13, and when I was a kid, instead of playing house, I played pregnancy.

    It's normal and natural.

    It's animal instinct to want to breed.

    Also, you're want of a baby could stem for not getting enough love and attention from the people you need if from, like family or friends. You may feel that having a baby could some how fill that void. If you are feeling this way I suggest telling people how you feel and if that doesn't work a cat or puppy or a mouse (mice are the best!) are filled with love (and don't poop nearly as much as babies)

    You need to do some growing up first. Experience being 21 without having to deal with babysitters. And if you think your parents will babysit for you, think again. Maybe you have a great family network, I don't know. I didn't.

    Babysit for a month straight!! Then see! How about, fake a baby for a month!! Get a doll and make it your baby. Where you go, it goes! Set your alarm to wake you every three hours in the night. When your friends call to go out, find a sitter or tell them you can't! If you do, set that alarm, babies don't care if you had a late night, get your ass up! It will give you a small idea about what it's like!

    i'm not judging you, if you can support a baby you can have one as far as i'm concerned. but generally people who want babies that young usually lack goals/ confidence/ focus in the future, or are unhappy now, maybe you should think about what you would like to do with your life rather than have a baby, or if anything is wrong :)

        my reply answers your question. because idiots like you tell us we're "f-cking retarded people"

        No wonder we seek love else where. because let's face it. babies can't say anything half as hurtful as you.

    Yeah thank you for telling me that. I was worried I'm some mind of freak for wanting a kid so young.

  • Wait until you can actually support a baby. I think wanting one is normal though.
