Was almost a grandma!!! ???
So On Friday before Mother's Day my 18 year old daughter (Brittney) hands me a envelop with a card in it for Mothers Day.
Thank you momof9.. I to wish I could go back and change things..
Wow! I'm sorry! I have a 16yr old DD and I would feel the same way. I was only 17 when I had her and its was so hard. I don't regret having her but I sure wish I would have done it differently. I had a bright future: a full scholarship, medical school on the horizon, a military career. I gave it all up to be a mom. No teenager is mature enough to have a child! You're doing great, everything happens for a reason. Hopefully she'll see this as a second chance to grow up before having a family. Congrats on the wedding!
All I can do is try to guide my very very stubborn child and pray for her to change her life and make the right decisions in her life to better herself...
Kristin, I wish she would but she'd have to get her ged then go to college.. She dropped out.. She's been in trouble with the law a few times. She's on probation for assault and stealing candy from Dollar general. I'm not sure what goes through this kids head.. She was in a very bad car accident last October and almost lost her life. The driver died on impact of hitting a telephone pole doing a 100mph... The passenger lived and Britt was thrown out the back window had she been wearing her seatbelt she wouldn't have been here.. She broke her knees and torn tendons and ligaments.. Very very lucky to be alive.. This kid of mine did not learn a lesson what so ever!! We butt head's big time..
So apparently my comment did not post last night, so let me see if I can remember what I said....
Wow, I can't believe that not only did she disobey you, but she lied to you by not telling you first. She is too young to have a baby. She's a baby herself. Ugh I'm so sorry you are going through this! She should not have put you in that position. You are not a bad person, nor did you jinx her to have that miscarriage. It happened for a reason. She was not ready for it. I do hope this is a wake up call for her, and she stops trying, goes to college and starts her life off right!
You definitely cannot catch a break! But I'm glad you and Jeff are doing well!
I definitely put my foot down with Jeff lol.. Said its all or nothing!!!
I'm to darn young to be a grandma, I'm still trying to have babies!!! She can have kids when I'm 50, maybe she'll be mature and stable by then..
Jizele, I'm not saying 34 is old but I felt like it was a saying that.. I'm trying to get a bun in my oven.. Just isn't happening fast enough lol
Ladies, I Definitely need a vacation!!! I have not been able to sleep well... Due to everything.
I was 16 when I had Britt OMG it was so hard, I was not ready to be a mom. I was just a kid..
Brittney is engaged, I refuse to call him her fiancee and he annoys the crap outta me. He's a nice kid but he's not thinking everything through. No job, no place to live, no car etc.....
Thank you for giving me feedback and support.. I am still shocked and disappointed in Brittney ?
Yikes!!! Idk what to say... I'm sad that your daughter did not protect herself!! It's so scary to think what else could have occurred other than pregnancy. Hopefully, she will take time to heal and reevaluate her circumstances.
I'm glad u and df are doing better. U kicked his ass into gear!!! Lol. I will patiently be awaiting pics from the wedding!!!
OMG, jnjbaby, you just can't catch a break ? I'm sure I would have had the exact same reaction. I don't understand why there are so many young kids who want babies. That crazy pregnancy board is full of teen moms. In glad tat you and Jeff are doing well though. You need a vacation (or honeymoon)!
Wow Wow Wow! U are totally in the right with all of this. I honestly believe that everything happens for a reason & this is why she probably had a miscarriage. She is no way ready for this. & do not blame urself hun. U sound like a beautiful & caring mother. I'm sure u've explained to her all the ups & downs of having a baby, but she really needs to get it glued into her head. Having a baby is not a joke. Also how do u think 34 is old missy? Ur no where near it, so keep baby dancing & get us a bun in the oven, lol. I'm glad ur doing ok with ur SO. Xx
I don't agree with my daughters life choices and she doesn't make the best choices. I didn't raise her to be like that.. I just don't get it!!! Her Dr will not put her on birth control because she smokes.
And I know she's trying to have a baby.
Am I wrong for feeling like this?
Yeah Kristin, she definitely needs something.. ?
