Q: I'm only 2weeks pregnant. I'm a young expecting mom, But I have a great way to work this out.
I'm living with my boyfriend (He has a job & goes to college) and getting help from my parents and my boyfriends parents. Its all working out pretty good.
I clean houses as a little job, right now. My boyfriend doesn't want me to have a real job.
I'm already picking out names, and going to baby stores looking clothes, you know. Its early but its fun to hangout with my friends.
But I'm afraid of being a bad mom to this child.
What will this child think when it may find out I didn't want the them at first, That i needed help to raise them from my parents?
I should be able to raise a baby, I took the chances of getting pregnant by having sex.
its my fault.

Nah. Don't be afraid of that. You have that thing that women have, the 12th sense or something [6 thru 11 they use to know what their man has been up to haha jk]. Anyways, I think it will just come naturally to you.

The first kid is usually the 'experimental' one, where you test out everything. Don't be afraid of that, you need that a lot. You will be able to raise the child, its just going to take a lot of patience, strength, and even more love. Don't focus on messing up because we are all human and its bound to happen - just learn from others and from your mistakes. Hope that helped and good luck.

I really like giving advice, so thats why I have a column here. I've been inactive for a long time, but I'm back and will do my best to catch up. Advicenators is a great site and it is what we make it. Having my own advice column helped me learn a lot of new things, even about myself, while giving me the chance to help others along the way. Thanks.
