TEENAGE PREGNANCY

How did it really make me feel?

When I first became pregnant I was really hurt. I felt like I wouldn’t know what to do when I had to walk around with her in my arms. I thought about how I had to walk around and see my peers and teachers embarrassed, look at me walk the halls of the school. Abortion thoughts came to mind.

My family and friends was very shocked about hearing, “ that sweet little girl’s pregnant.” Even I was shocked and could not believe that teen pregnancy would come my way. Sometimes I would be at home looking around crying about the whole situation. I would say, “Lord why me”. My biggest mindset was, “ I’m still going to graduate even if I don’t do anything else.” I knew I wouldn’t be able to leave when I got ready. Every time I thought about that it would make me mad. So in that case I would go to my child’s father and fuss at him about what he did to me. I always blamed the situation on him. Even now I still treat him wrong. I say to myself, “ that’s my revenge.” The good part about having her was, I knew I would have someone by my side.
