he has a job and goes to school, she worked extra hard to finish school early...Please share the most HELPFUL advice you have for new (teen-aged) parents?
I just turned 18 and had my daughter when i was 17 and she is now 3 months old... dont be taking care of the baby all the time let them experience what its like to be parents and how much time it takes and stuff like that but at the same time be supportive... you can take the baby when they are doing school work or something like that but just dont let them pawn the baby off on you when they want to go out... My advice would be finish school go to college if possible... this baby is a blessing and it was put in there lives for a reason... congradulate them on being good parents (( that really encourages me!)) tell them ((dont lecture))) how hard it will be to raise this baby without a stable home and enviroment and they need to work on it now on how they want to plan out there lives.. there is no more i dont know what i want to do with my life.. they have another life to look after... Its going to be hard for them... but it will all be worth it... CONGRATS and god bless!Please share the most HELPFUL advice you have for new (teen-aged) parents?
Be the best parents that you could possibly be. Be the best roll model for your child because thats what they grew up on and thats what depends on there life how are they going to live it, and suceed it. Your teenage years are over now time has come to be a parent
I had my son at 17 years old. He is now 24 years old. A couple of suggestions. Keep a routien for feeding and sleeping it will save you so much trouble later. My son asked to make his 8 pm bedtime later and I agreed as long as he never gave me a hard time about waking up and he didnt and more often then not he would be in bed by 8 pm anyway because he was so used to it. I never had to fight him to go to bed he just did it. Also be consistant with disipline, if you have company dont just let the child do things you wouldnt let them do if you were alone. Stop and remind the child what is exspected and then they wont take advantage of you being distracted.
depends...what are the ages of the teen parents???i wish them the best of luck no matter what everyone else says!
Be expected for the unexpected.
you intentionally had a baby as a teenager? i say good luck!
Be good parents. Put your child first and set a good example!
First of all give them all the support you can give them. They're still young so let them know that they can count on you. Its great that they are still in school, and he has a job, but advice them that sometimes times will be rough and to hang in there. A baby is a blessing and with time they will get the hang of things, just tell them to be PATIENT
Get all the help you can with family and friends. Stay in school and do everything you planned on doing before you got pregnant :) its a wonderful thing :)
You child will know how hard you worked for everything and what a great roll model you will be
congrats on the pregnancy :)
Be very patient. Don't feel like a failure because you don't know what to do. It will all come in time. Even at 20 with my 1st..I had no idea. At 32 and 2 more kids..I'm still learning. Love that child no matter how stressful parenthood becomes. It is the most rewarding job you will ever have. You will learn from trial and error. Always be the best mom and dad you can be. It will reflect on who your child becomes l8tr in life. Congratulations and best wishes!
I had my baby at 18 and you are right (not a mistake) you will get frustrated sometimes. when you feel that way let someone else watch the baby so you can calm down, or have time to yourself. Also communication is the best if you feel like you are losing yourself talk to your partner and make sure the both of you are doing your part. Don't ever feel that you can't do what you need to do because you have a child (ex.college,career). If you limit yourself you limit how you can provide for your child
well fisrt of all i know that being a YOUNG parent could be tough but it could be done! i think that the most valueble advice would be to always support one another in everything! knowing that your other half has your back no matter what makes things a little less stressing. you won't feel as if you are alone on it!
