hello! I just joined a few minutes ago so i thought i would introduce myself.
I'm Lyssa, I'll be 20 years old on the 28th (Don't judge the fact that I'm young..
I may be young but I'm smart about a lot of things and I'm mature. It also helps that my mother is a NICU nurse so I get lots of help and advice from her
I got pregnant when I had just turned 18 a few months before and stayed with the dad until my daughter (Grace Arabelle) was about 4 months old. I don't blame him (although I would like to) I love being a mother, and I love my daughter, but he just couldn't/wouldn't grow up and take responsibility. He still visits with her once a week though.
I'm also going to school full time, taking a child/youth care program. I graduate next November and I plan on working in two main areas, with abused children (boys aged 4-12) and with pregnant teenagers and teenaged parents.
So thats me pretty much, sorry it was so long! I hope to be talking to you all soon.

Hun I was 16 when I had Cait. Your doing a good job hun, I went to college too and we haven't given up doesn't matter age you are. Someone in the 40's could have a child and may not cope that well just because we are young doesn't mean we don't know how to be a good parent. There are girls that have had them younger than me too.
