My mother was 17. I was raised well. I had a happy childhood and a loving home. I am 40 now and hoping to adopt. One of the ironies of my life. We are infertile. We'd love to be parents.
Teen pregnancy alone is not a reason not to parent. Sometimes it works. Sometimes parents in the "normal" age range suck. It should be about choice. True choice, not pressure or desperation.
I think both can be good: Parenting your child as a 17 year old and placing your child.
Yeah, he's great until he gets up on his soapbox about how women who have abortions are murderers and we should just give our kids up for adoption. Pass.
