I’ve been dating my boyfriend for a little over a year now, and I’m confident he’s the one I want to spend my life with. He’s kind, empathetic, goofy, and overall just a genuine person. Recently things have been getting serious and we’ve started taking about the future more (marriage, kids, etc..). I’m so excited and impatient for the future. We’re both still in school and each have about 2 more years left (unless I decide to go to grad school). Recently he’s gotten a job where he works with kids, and now he really wants to start a family. I always imagined myself having kids in my late 20s or early 30s (I’m 19 right now, 20 in april). He’s 8 years older than me (he’s 27, turning 28 in April). So he’s ready to start a family really soon. He also wants to have kids while his parents are still around so they have the chance to be grandparents. His mother has very serious health problems, and may not be around for much longer. I would love to be able to have a child right now if I wasn’t still in school and I actually had my career. I know I’m too young, but I cannot stop thinking about it. I feel as though I was put on this earth to be a mother, and the longer I wait the more I want it.

I know this is exciting and I know you want to have a family, but I want you to know as a child of a teen pregnancy that you have so much more to do before you can do this. My mom thought she was meant to be a mother too, but she didn't take the time to learn how exactly you're supposed to go about it. I suggest at least, to get in a financially stable place before you consider this because myself and my siblings moved 12 times in 2 years because mom couldn't hold a job and take care of us at the same time. Please consider happiness of the child too-- I understand that this is your choice and I can't stop you but consider how much time you really want to take away from your freedom to travel and see the world, because in a way, mom blames me, the eldest, as the reason she couldn't do these things.
