Well it depends on what u mean by "proper". 18 is the age that formally welcomes u into adulthood(18 is the stardard adult age in most part of the world according to the law). So at 18 .u're an adult , nomore a kid. So whyn't- u can be pregnant at 18. But i dont think it's proper getting pregnant outside of marriage. |

At 18 a girl should still be in school and having fun in her life. She will be starnded with a baby long enough. That can wait |

Getting pregnant at 18 is really a bad idea becos u are giving up your youth life and freedom and also u re still a baby yourself. I know people say a baby is a Blessing but also u don't wanna bring a baby into this world yet. U have your whole life and future right in front of you, am sure u don't wanna mess that up. u need a degree and am not talking about BA becos nobody really cares about especially if u are looking for a right paying job. AM talking about getting your Master's Degree. U need a career not a job, so plz i will advice u to think about this issue and also talk to your mum too, this are the time when our mother's are needed so they can lead us in the right path. |

acidrop:girl what re u smoking so are u telling me if u have a baby at 18, u will be able to do things your age mate are doing. Oh let me guess u think your mum will take care of the baby for u while u out partying? no sweetie she won't,she has her own life to. Do u think it easy to take care of a baby at that age DO u know how much it cost to take care of a baby for a yr. |

What is proper? In the end, you're the one that deals with it all. |
Re: is it proper to get pregnant at the age of 18? by lanegra(f): 2:21pm On Apr 18, 2007 |
I think becoming pregnant at 18 is perfectly fine as long as your life is established enough--you know, you have an INCOME, and you could at least be married as well! You need to be able to financially, emotionally, physically, and mentally be able to support the child in a structured home. If you can't do that, wait a while. |
Re: is it proper to get pregnant at the age of 18? by lanegra(f): 2:24pm On Apr 18, 2007 |
Oh and also I don't agree that it means giving up your life, having a baby at 18. It's actually just beginning your life. But if you don't have things established by 18, like a decent job, a father who's there for the baby, etc, then you should just forget it, wait till later. This is the problem with our society today, we treat 18 year olds like little babies, and we're surprised when they act like babies. It's time to treat them like the adults they are, and stop reffering to them as babies. They'll never grow up if we keep calling them babies, keeping them in that "baby" mentality. 18 is an age to start taking responsibility for your life, and getting yourself together. Not the ideal age to have a baby, I know, but if it happens, you'd better be prepared and stop thinking of yourself as a baby. |

look no further than the black ghettos of the US. having a child at 18 is often the first step in a long generation of 18 year old mothers. typically the dad is within the same age bracket, which means he is in no way prepared to actually be a father. which means your child might be denied all the things you took for granted as a kid. |
Re: is it proper to get pregnant at the age of 18? by Nobody: 8:55am On Apr 19, 2007 |
of course, the above only applies if you're from a middle class or below background. if you're from a rich ,kept background, your folks will simply take care of your kid for you, and life will go on. |
