I will never for the life of me understand why some people feel the need to pass judgement or comment upon people for the number of children that they have, their age or whether they are married or not... why.
Look I can understand how it would be frustrating to see someone produce 10 kids when they have no money are unemployed etc but when a couple love each other have been together for a while and are bringing their children into a loving stable home I just cannot understand it.
Case in point one of the young mums I know, she is one of the best moms I have ever met, her kids are happy, yes she is young so frikken what she isn't stupid or a child her kids are far from neglected they are loved and are some of the most well mannered lovely kids I have ever met, age has nothing to do with your ability to parent I strongly believe that having seen a few moms now as young as 13/14 become wonderful doting mothers... is it ideal or right for a woman to become a mom at some a young age... no; but shit happens and what matters most is what that young mom and her partner do going forward.
Having been a teen mom myself I know what its like the judgment, the opinions people telling you you were stupid or bound to fail, it is incredibly frustrating to see someone you know not share such wonderful news not share photos etc because of the judgment thrown towards them, its not your body, its not your family so why...
I urge all the moms out there who are pregnant with babies who may not be as anticipated by those around you to keep your head up high, share the news, share your photos, your ups and downs, so not let this beautiful gift be marred by those people, your unborn child and you do not deserve that negativity and your baby should be celebrated for the gift that he/she is.
