I was adopted, and she definitely has it all wrong... I do not feel unloved, I do not feel tossed aside. My parents explained to me at a very early age that I was given to them so they could give me my best chance because my mother couldn't at the time. She is seriously mistaken about the thought process of all adopted children... Sure as hell glad she's not MY mom... I don't think being a teen mom is impossible, but it's not the baby's best chance!
I just want to punch him right now because he is forcing thoughts and words into her mouth and mind. I do understand that this is a child because you know what, I got pregnant at 17 and I would have gone through every step, gotten a job, gotten married, fight through everyday because that is my job as a mother. Unfortunately I lost my baby, but you would have to kill me before trying to take my child away from me. I respect her as a person and she'll find that it's time to grow up now.
Putting it up for adoption or abortion is the easy way out. If you are the one pregnant you are responsible to take care of the baby! Its ridiculous that they are trying to make her give it up. SHE IS THE MOM!!!!!
the stp dad is a shit head. He would rather kill a baby than support it cause its more convenient for him. Maybe he could learn something from his wife. They should abort him.
i feel real bad for the unborn baby. that girl is dumb. point blank. sorry its the truth. she can keep this baby and not only screw her life but the babys to along with her moms marriage. how selfish is the this girl.???
Dr. Phil is just SO negative! Perhaps, if he stopped attacking her and spoke more reasonably with her about the ideas and whatnot, she'd be more willing to accept other options and input. She may be 16, but in the end, it's her body and her baby. She's the only one that can say yes to adoption or yes to parenting. It happened, so now it's about dealing with it in a logical manner.
He's talking about teen moms and relating it back to Teen Mom. Does he watch the show? All of those girls that chose to keep the baby (except for Jenelle) are raising the babies, without much help from their parents. I think only one of them is still living at home and relying on their parents. Dr. Phil basically called this girl on the show to criticize.
@STR1CERA actually no I'm not, and I don't appreciate rude people. You OR Dr.Phil so faaack off and keep your ill-minded comments to yaself, k? Thx. It is completely her decision, not some right-winged hick Dr.
I don't watch alot of Dr. Phil, but he's being a bit rude. His opinion is clear and he's just trying to push it on this family. He does make plenty of great points, but he really shouldn't be approaching the situation like he is doing.
@ 37:15 eye roll haha. She's like ahhh shaddap Dr.Phill.I get it. You think I'm immature. Well I'm doing this because it's up to me! :) good on ya girl!
Wow he's being so rude, and I hate the step-dad. He has no idea whats it like! STOP trying to pressure her!! I'm SO glad they don't force her to give it up for adoption!! And that one teen mom is so annoying and rude.
I'm 21 almost 22 and 13 weeks pregnant. Honestly it is NOT glamorous. Lol. I love my baby and my husband and I are excited. But I couldn't imagine doing this while living with my parents and in high school! I understand some cases. Accidents happen, some aren't planned (my little one wasn't) But teens just shouldn't be having sex. Give the guy a blowjob and call it a day jeez :P
1) stepdad isn't her dad her stepdad didn't say once about loving the child the mother knows the right decision might be to give up the kid but is also thinking of the emotional greif. 2) emily turned out fine, a great mother, and dr.phil did knock some sense into her 3)dr.phil at somepoints was hard on her he was basicly saying - no matter what you cant raise you will be a failure , no work will make you suitable.
Okay I understand that this young lady is to young to have a baby. But what i don't like is that people "ASSUME" that when she have her baby she is going to neglect the child and have her mother take care of the baby. Just because some ignorant female (all Race) neglected there child and left them to other siblings doesn't mean that she will. Don't nobody know her they only know of her and You never know she just might be a Great mother to this baby girl. "DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER".
@triceey07 Its just my opinion. Im 18 years old finished high school, Oh yeah And I am a Blk African American Female, in College to be Architecture and no kids with my own place and car. Yet that doent mean the I am ready for a kid(s) thats why I deal with my nephew and send him back to his dad ( brother) .. I wont be having any kids not until my 30's and I tell my mom that all the time. Because I have been raised by a TEEN MOM . Who never left her kids and still have her kids tell this day.
What people are failing to realize is that the shows teen mom is not reality. Mtv is financing their families now real teen moms dont get that in real life
This is idiotic. Not all teen moms are failing. I gave birth to my son at 17, graduated from High School, Worked Full Time and lived on my own. I get no child support, no welfare. I have done this all on my own with no help from anyone. I have finished college and have better job than most my friends that don't have kids. It is only the people who choose to fail in this situation that do fail. If you want to succeed than you can. No one has any right no look down on teen moms.
@cara88cc Great that you have succeded you probably were mature for your age put unfortunatly you are nnot representative of the majority .Look at this girl she s like a chicken with no head totaly clueless
Now here is reality; most teen moms have trouble finding jobs 1. Because they have no experience, and 2. Because they're teens. This forces most of them onto welfare. once on the welfare system they can't get any further education since that will cost money. And the cycle remains.
You made it as a teen mom, good. But don't try to encourage it as if it's a wise choice, because bottom line, it's not. THUMBS DOWN!
TO ALL TEEN GIRLS: Keep your legs closed, and stay in school!
@AllPro777 I am not encouraging anything, but everyone is assuming she will fail without giving this girl a chance. If I took into consideration all the people that said I would fail yeah I probably would have, but I knew I wouldn't. I am not saying that teens should go out and get pregant either. I am saying things happen. Reality is that teens these days have sex usually unprotected. There is no stopping it. Maybe if people would give these girls a chance they could accomplish great things.
What you don't appear to see, is that whether you intended to encourage it or not, your comments certainly come across as permissive of it. That's a problem.
Teens have always had sex unprotected and gotten pregnant. The problem now is that our society has changed and kids are not responsible like they were in the 1800's when getting married and having kids at 13 was commonplace. Kids today do not develop the maturity necessary to be parents as quickly. Most teen parents DO fail!
@STR1CERA Exactly, 16 is the age of consent, atleast where I live. My sons dad was 20 and I was 16. There was nothing my parents could do because as of the age of 16 they could no longer claim victim on my behalf. I would have to say that I said no. It is not illegal in all states to consent to sex before the age of 18. You know how many people would be sitting in jail for have sex with a girlfriend or boyfriend if that was the case.
@cara88cc Thatt's tough to say. I agree with much of what you say, and you're one of the great examples of succeeding where everyone thought you'd fail. However, the truth is, as a teenager, the majority have very little life experience and can barely take care of themselves - let alone how to raise another human being.
@TrauenSieg Yeah and these hypocrites then say, " They are Christian blah blah." And they also force nonbelievers to obey what they subscribe to, even if they are half-hearted about it. "Oh well you're going to hell because you're not Christian." Well flippin A neither are you! I'm Christian, but at least, I have the common sense ot wait.
@goingplaces11 A lot of people are Religious by name. I just had a conversation with my sister earlier today that if a person is going to be smart enough to have sex, they should be smart enough to know the consequences (HIV contraction, Pregnancy, Etc.) A lot of people say "Oh, I got pregnant by mistake".. No, honey. A mistake is when you accidentally say "sex" instead of "socks",, that's a mistake. Well, as long as you know your morals and you are true to yourself, that's good.
around and I don't like the part when he asked the mother did she really think her daughter was gonna nurture, feed, and do all the things the baby need like dr phil that's not even okay to say that to her oh my gosh and I can't believe people like this man anyways let me get off this before I break my screen tryna type
this is exactly why I don't like Dr. Phil, he was basically on stage saying that she and her baby were gonna be statistics and if you ask me he was trying to pressure her into doing adoption..... and what he fail to realize is that when teenage girls go through things like this they need all the support they can get that's why her mother is there for her and not letting her daughter go through with it alone and if that husband of the mother can't accept her decision then he don't need to be aro
Just one thing, I'm not taking someone's side but her mom is right, she just makes it sound wrong.
If m daughter was having a baby of course I would want her to not keep it, for her own good but if the really wants to keep it, I'm not gonna make her feel better by shutting her out and be mean to her because I don't support her decision.
I know what my mom feels about teen pregnancy but I also know IF I accidentally got pregnant and wanted to keep the baby, she would support me.

Seriously, If you can't take care of a baby and you aren't ready to have one you should not have sex! It's your fault that you got pregnant and you have to live whit it, even if it means abortion.
"Dr,Phil" is claiming that 16 and pregnant, and teen mom is glamorizing teen pregnancy. Well here is the thing that whether your 32 or 16 you could be a "bad" mom. i feel that she should give the husband an ultimatum that either he can be on board with EMILYS decision because that is his wife CHILD or he can hit the road.
Sorry but this is BS. I was 17 when I had my daughter. I did finish school. I did graduate from Collage. I have a good job, and I am enganged to the father of my daughter. Ask a 30 year old first time Mom all these questions; I bet half of them wouldn´t know the answers. I´m not saying that every teen should have a baby, but if a teen gets pregnant, let her decide what to do about it!! There are enough cases that just worf out perfectly fine.
@TMJ85ful You are a rarity and that is wonderful. I'm very happy for you and wish you the best. It's great knowing that at least some teen moms can make it and defy the odds.
I just think that she is a naive little girl, who only see the glorious side of having a child, like the cute clothes and toys. She doesn't realise the responsibility of raising a kid, let alone the cost. I really do feel sorry for her.
Your family should not be responsible for the baby. Yeah, they should help you and support you through it, but they shouldn't have to raise it for you. If you're like 15-18 and you have a child, the best thing to do would be to put it up for adoption. There are so many couples out there that would love to have a baby. You should always think about the baby first, not your self.
@nelsoooon22 is that your attitude toward any teen parent? because should you decide to adopt, that "brat" could be the one allowing you to have the chance to raise a child. u don't even know her, so who are you to make a judgement call
@k2013RT this is true, but i know for a fackt that babys change your life im going to be a teen mom in a few mouths and i have the lucshriy of going to a school that is for teen mothers and that i have a bf that is there to help out with the mouny but it makes things tuff. what if the baby has a bierth defect or gets till that is a good nuther $1000 on you.
@RedSkeletonKeys and all the mouny thats needed evan BEFORE jr is born is a lot of mouny. theres cribs, strollers, corsets, baby clothing. soon as you find out you have to and i mean have to start looking for all these things. and theres a lot of mount in that too. "it takes a village to erase a baby"
A normal mother would stop her child from sex when she is only 16, not let her continue by giving her the options of birth pills because that makes the child disparage the consequences of sex! I am 14 and know better... not trying to boast, just trying to state my opinion that this is something an adult should already know.
@kimi0st2rz you must be 14 because you're actin like you know it all. when you become a parent you'll realize that you cant be with your kid 24/7 every day of his or her life. if a teenager wants to do somethin they will find a way to do it. a SMART mom would put her child on the bc rather than be so completely naive as to think that their kid is going to stop having sex. Just sayin, next time you decide to say somethin make sure you have experience to back it up.
@k2013RT Hello. First, the birth control option didn't work because if a child is already underestimating sex, getting birth control with agreement from her parent causes her to take a step further and stop using birth control.(teen behavior) If her mother had chastized her and made a point that sex should not be allowed, she would get the picture of sex being something very heavy.(which would discourage her) I am raised by strict parents and have seen these kinds of examples at school.
@kimi0st2rz No matter what you do you cant stop a teen from having sex unless you keep them locked behind bars. I think the mother was being realistic in realizing she was going to have sex anyway. She could do it at school, in the car anywhere. Bot giving her condoms and birth control would have been even worse.
IF THIS GIRL PUTS HER MIND TO IT SHE CAN BE A MOM! ADOPTION IS PAINFUL AND IT'S HARD ON BOTH SIDED! AND THAT WAS A RUDE COMMENT AND SAYING THAT SHE WON'T GRADUATE AND GO TO COLLEGE IF SHE PUTS HER MIND TO IT SHE CAN! I DID IT SHAME ON YOU!
I hate how people look down upon teen moms. It may not be the wisest decision in their lives, but most of the teen moms I know are a helluva lot better Moms/Dads than the adults around me. There are adults out there and teens out there who arent fit to be parents, but there are some who are.
Also, in the view of my mother, letting them get an abortion or do adoption, is "an easy way out". Make them live with the decision they made. Which I dont fully agree with, but worked well in her family.
@uky1985 They aren't always "accidents", and they aren't always paid for by taxpayers. I wasn't saying every teen parent is awesome and great. I was just stating that they don't have to be adults to be good parents, and they don't have to be teens to be bad parents.
@uky1985 I never said they didn't. Just as that is an opinion, I stated my opinion that I hate it when they look upon teen parents in a general way. Not all teen parents are like this girl. Some actually still go on to make something of themselves and have a great life.
@uky1985 I realize that, so do many teen parents. Working in social services I saw many more cases of "adults" not wanting to give up their lives than teens.
the trouble with teen moms like this one is they have absolutely no idea what the reality and the consequences of their pregnancy are. they may think it's so cute, but the ones who have to pay for everything and raise the baby? i don't think they find it cute. teens should spend their free time with friends and being care free-that's part of being young. the serious stuff comes later!
I was born when my mom was a teenager. She told me that it wasnt easy for her. If she wants to keep the baby then that means she will try to take care of it. Its so annoying when you guys say that its best for the baby. I mean really? If the parents want to keep the baby then thats the best for it. The baby needs its mother.
Hollywood isn't glamorizing pregnancy, people are just stupid/will do anything to be famous. I wonder what the statistics are of teen pregnancy before and after the mtv show.
All you people here hating on dr. Phil, the stepdad, etc. just because IN THIS CASE the teen pregnancy worked out are just ignorant. The fact is most don't and she deserved the wake up call before finalizing her decision.
Oh and being pregnant is not a bad thing. It's a blessing. Having somthing wonderfull in your belly, caring it for 9 months. Like really. Dr. Phil and some of these people need to grow up. Like really. Dr. Phil isn't a teen parent, he don't know what or how it feels. So he just needs to stop. Kay thanks.
Really? Not all teen moms make their family care for the baby? How is this honest? like really? I am a teen mom. Had my son at 16. I love him to death. I have the support of my family, to back me up. But i take care of my son. I DO. not my parents. Not my family. ME. Ok. Alot of teen moms grow up when they have the baby/ when they get pregnant. "Whats best for the baby"? The baby needs a person that loves it. And wants it. Not some stupid person that just trying to help out people.
Wow a lot of people on here leave extremely rude comments. Emily is doing EXTREMELY well as a mom she has a job, is graduating soon, and lucy is about to be 1! Theirs a ton left out, if you were on the show you would know that. So don't judge so quickly!
ESPECIALLY ABOUT YOUR STEPDAD'S TERRIBLE HAIRPIECE.
I MEAN DAMN GIRL, YOU EVEN DECIDED TO PROTECT YOUR IDENTITY BY NOT HAVING YOUR FACE SHOWN. GOOD GOD YOU THINK LIKE AN 18 YEAR OLD.
I'M LOVING IT!!!!!!!!
Also I fucking HATE LISTENING to her stupid sister. HER VOICE MAKES ME WANT TO PUNCH HER. STOP PRETENDING YOU'RE SO GODDAMNED CUTE BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT!! AND YOU CAN'T DO MATH.
Dr. Phil can be a real prick sometimes when it comes to his mouth. Such a asshole sometimes but oh well, Makes my day just laughing my ass off at him. Bald Eagle :P
He needs to take those statistics and shove them up his ass. They are SO generalized and only focused on a small group of "teen moms". It's such bullshit. Where's the statistic on how many children end up becoming criminals or fail a grade no matter how old the parents are?
yeah right how is hollywood glamorizing teen pregnancy.. I'm 16 and i love the teen mom shows.. but i think having a kid sounds awful... adults are stupid... not us!
@erinhansen18 they are glamorizing it dearie. I knew 3 girls in my High school that got pregnant just to get on those dumb shows. And you know what? they didn't. Being a teen mom on those shows are great. You get paid thousands upon thousands to be on there so so you don't have to get a job or anything like that because MTV is paying for your kid.
oh dr phil... my mother had me at 17, finished high school, went to college, AND graduated... also, i am almost 25 years old and i've never been pregnant. (i'm engaged though!) .. so gtfo with your statistics.
poor thing shes sooo young! she has no idea how it likes to be a mom its not easy at all i love how dr phil is giving her a big reality check! i think she might of gotten pregnant so she could keep her bf around
@Ishta081 that's so far from true that it's actually sort of funny. By the way, her daughter is turning one soon and she's raised her BY HERSELF WITHOUT THE DAD the entire time.
Dr phil is so terrible, it was her desicion. hes basically saying that she cant make her own desicion. i dont even think he knows her well enough to say crap like that.
the fact that certain people are so disgustingly stook in the past and have the cheek to express their negative opinions on teen mothers are sick. HOW DARE SOMEONE patronize a young person for wanting to raise thir child and show them care and provide for them. you can throw as many statistics around that you like i think its sickening people assume the child is going to be fuked up for the rest of their lives. no ones saying the positive things about being a teen mum though are they?!?!
i hate dr.phil .... like this girl now has a beautiful baby girl.. and shes doing amazingly well. shes going to collage and has two jobs. and dr.phil was going on about how OTHER teens have failed.. well that sucks for them. but shes her own person and if she believes she can do it, then who the fuck is dr.phil to tell her she cant
What I don't understand is that Dr.Phil is making this out like its her mother's fault. For shame that she wants to support her daughter...how dare she...... WTF is he thinking. He is supposed to be helping people through there problems. He is creating an even greater rift in this family. This man knows shit about shit and I don't understand why people listen to him.
14:49 I'm proof that I do really well in school. In fact, I started early, and am s'posed to be in the grade before me. So, all his statistics are messed up. If you want to know more about teen moms, or kids who were born to teen parents, go talk to them yourselves. Don't go to these so called 'experts' who THINK they know anything.
i Cant Even Finish Watchin This Show Because All He Is Goin By Is Statistics ..WDF!!! &' Last Time I Checkd Almost Everyone I Went To School With Their Parents Where Teenage When They Had Them &' They Actually Smarter Than Sum Of The Other Students That Have Old Ass Parents
Hey guys? This is Emily from this lovely episode. My daughter's 1st birthday is coming up!!!!:) I have a job, in four months i'll be graduating high school and heading out into a nice arts college and Lucy, my daughter, is healthy and beautiful and about to start walking!:)
That family isn't poor they can look after the baby. There is no excuse to put the child up for adoption. This is not the 1950s she should keep the baby.
@emeraldsilky101 One thing is looking after the baby, another thing is raising/supporting the baby, I agree with you, that poor baby shouldnt be given up for adoption, BUT they shouldnt have to take the responsibility that the girl put upon herself, she wants the baby, Ok, the go get a JOB, and support your kid. Doesnt matter if they are not poor, like I said before, Is not the parents resposibility, its all hers!!!
@emeraldsilky101 You really have to put in all the other factors he went into. Truthfully she's not even close to be able to work to support for the child. Then there is the whole factor of her being able to go to college and finish it. Babies are expensive and require A LOT of time and energy.
it kind of feels like the girl is seen as a criminal in court with the judge just yelling at her, though he's not, it feels like he is. and he only seems to care about the unborn baby, wth? this girl has feelings too, once your pregnant, sure the baby is seen as more important by some , but she is still a child and doesn't need to be hated. she needs love.
My mom was a teen mom, she was 14. She thought of having a abortion to get rid of me. When I was born she ran, she was scared of owning her second baby because she couldn't even handle her first. My real father ran too, I never got a chance to know him. I was adopted at 11 months old into my family now.
Sometimes, having a child doesn't seen that hard, but when you have one, its not as easy as you thing, that's why your family is suppose to help you, because that's what family does.
Place this baby for adoption thats all I can hear in this viedo, I think they went on the show just for the showing off, I know soo many girls who was 16 and have gotten pregnant and they are the best moms out their, her mom want's to help her out so let her and not do all the work but help her along with the raising of the child. Let her go and do whatever please :)
Okay. Dr Phil has absolutely no right to say " the reason you want to keep the baby is so your parents/family can raise it" because not all teen parents are like 16 & Pregnant or Teen Mom stars! adults just don't listen if they have said their view and you aren't going to agree on that view
This girl is so irritating. Look at that fake "I'm so sad about this" face and the way she refuses any kind of help. She just wants attention the whole time. And don't get me started on the looks she gives all of them whenever they say something she thinks she shouldn't agree on.
@timh651 Nowadays it is. Teenagers and young children are way more childish than they used to be. When my grandmother was young, that time, it was normal to be 18, get married and have children. If you look at the mental age of most 18 years old, they just aren't ready.
i also am a teen but i believe in emilys decision, just becasue we are young people dont think we are prepared for certian things. yes some of us arent but how can you say that shes not ready or willing to think of this child. my mother had 2 children by the time she was 18, me and my sister are in perfect condition. they had no support and we turned out perfect. there is no way you can tell how a child is going to turn out because every story is differernt. and so is every person.
We need more teen mums like this, our child ratio is about 2 -3 on average, in india etc they have average of 6 - 7, if we don't have more kids then in 100 years white people will be much less.
I was adopted, and she definitely has it all wrong... I do not feel unloved, I do not feel tossed aside. My parents explained to me at a very early age that I was given to them so they could give me my best chance because my mother couldn't at the time. She is seriously mistaken about the thought process of all adopted children... Sure as hell glad she's not MY mom... I don't think being a teen mom is impossible, but it's not the baby's best chance!

Okay I understand that this young lady is to young to have a baby. But what i don't like is that people "ASSUME" that when she have her baby she is going to neglect the child and have her mother take care of the baby. Just because some ignorant female (all Race) neglected there child and left them to other siblings doesn't mean that she will. Don't nobody know her they only know of her and You never know she just might be a Great mother to this baby girl. "DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER".

I have done this all on my own with no help from anyone. I have finished college and have better job than most my friends that don't have kids. It is only the people who choose to fail in this situation that do fail. If you want to succeed than you can. No one has any right no look down on teen moms.

Now here is reality; most teen moms have trouble finding jobs 1. Because they have no experience, and 2. Because they're teens. This forces most of them onto welfare. once on the welfare system they can't get any further education since that will cost money. And the cycle remains.
You made it as a teen mom, good. But don't try to encourage it as if it's a wise choice, because bottom line, it's not. THUMBS DOWN!

@AllPro777 I am not encouraging anything, but everyone is assuming she will fail without giving this girl a chance. If I took into consideration all the people that said I would fail yeah I probably would have, but I knew I wouldn't. I am not saying that teens should go out and get pregant either. I am saying things happen. Reality is that teens these days have sex usually unprotected. There is no stopping it. Maybe if people would give these girls a chance they could accomplish great things.
cara88cc 5 days ago
@cara88cc
What you don't appear to see, is that whether you intended to encourage it or not, your comments certainly come across as permissive of it. That's a problem.
Teens have always had sex unprotected and gotten pregnant. The problem now is that our society has changed and kids are not responsible like they were in the 1800's when getting married and having kids at 13 was commonplace. Kids today do not develop the maturity necessary to be parents as quickly. Most teen parents DO fail!

@STR1CERA Exactly, 16 is the age of consent, atleast where I live. My sons dad was 20 and I was 16. There was nothing my parents could do because as of the age of 16 they could no longer claim victim on my behalf. I would have to say that I said no. It is not illegal in all states to consent to sex before the age of 18. You know how many people would be sitting in jail for have sex with a girlfriend or boyfriend if that was the case.

@cara88cc Thatt's tough to say. I agree with much of what you say, and you're one of the great examples of succeeding where everyone thought you'd fail. However, the truth is, as a teenager, the majority have very little life experience and can barely take care of themselves - let alone how to raise another human being.

Your family should not be responsible for the baby. Yeah, they should help you and support you through it, but they shouldn't have to raise it for you. If you're like 15-18 and you have a child, the best thing to do would be to put it up for adoption. There are so many couples out there that would love to have a baby. You should always think about the baby first, not your self.

@kimi0st2rz you must be 14 because you're actin like you know it all. when you become a parent you'll realize that you cant be with your kid 24/7 every day of his or her life. if a teenager wants to do somethin they will find a way to do it. a SMART mom would put her child on the bc rather than be so completely naive as to think that their kid is going to stop having sex. Just sayin, next time you decide to say somethin make sure you have experience to back it up.
k2013RT 1 month ago
@k2013RT Hello. First, the birth control option didn't work because if a child is already underestimating sex, getting birth control with agreement from her parent causes her to take a step further and stop using birth control.(teen behavior) If her mother had chastized her and made a point that sex should not be allowed, she would get the picture of sex being something very heavy.(which would discourage her) I am raised by strict parents and have seen these kinds of examples at school.

Also, in the view of my mother, letting them get an abortion or do adoption, is "an easy way out". Make them live with the decision they made. Which I dont fully agree with, but worked well in her family.

This girl is so irritating. Look at that fake "I'm so sad about this" face and the way she refuses any kind of help. She just wants attention the whole time. And don't get me started on the looks she gives all of them whenever they say something she thinks she shouldn't agree on.

No, you're not ready when you're 18. Just, no.

@Myumeful my grandfather fought in WWII when he was barely 16. maturity is not a number.

@timh651 Nowadays it is. Teenagers and young children are way more childish than they used to be. When my grandmother was young, that time, it was normal to be 18, get married and have children. If you look at the mental age of most 18 years old, they just aren't ready.

Emily seems like a selfish, moody brat. Her little sister has more common sense than her!

i also am a teen but i believe in emilys decision, just becasue we are young people dont think we are prepared for certian things. yes some of us arent but how can you say that shes not ready or willing to think of this child. my mother had 2 children by the time she was 18, me and my sister are in perfect condition. they had no support and we turned out perfect. there is no way you can tell how a child is going to turn out because every story is differernt. and so is every person.

We need more teen mums like this, our child ratio is about 2 -3 on average, in india etc they have average of 6 - 7, if we don't have more kids then in 100 years white people will be much less.
