The Pros And Cons Of Becoming A Teenage Mother

In the society we live in today, everything is more complicated than it really should be. Everyone looks and feels different towards everything, creating their own perspective, therefore, judging based upon their own beliefs. Consequently, making society a little overwhelming. A huge factor that the majority of people genuinely struggle with, is identity. With pressure coming from family, peers, and society, a lot of people don 't know who to be.

Everything I do and have been doing the fast few years is completely for my son. My main objective is to providing for my son while making sure he has everything and anything to be happy, healthy, and successful, . Im ambitious just like many other young moms that dream of the greatest and work for the best for ourselves and our children. I 'm currently a full time college student, full time mom and a part time employee. I get up every morning mentally and physically preparing myself for a busy day. A busy day in which I have no time to give up or to complain. It’s not easy, to leave my baby at home while I go out into the word doing everything to make sure he has everything.
