Why Some Teens Want to be Pregnant?

It's real simple. Most girls do not have a foundation in faith in God, and most do not have a father. Girls that grow up missing one or both, have no concept of how to be loved, or how to have something other than themselves as their main priority. As such, many girls try and use getting pregnant as a way to force the guy they know to be their husband. I've met girls who purposefully got pregnant because they truly believed that this would make Billy boy, become Husband Bill. Of course it's extremely rare that it works, and sometimes when it does they find out Billy is still a kid, and doesn't know how to be an adult husband, even if he wants to. So most of the time that doesn't work, and the rest of the time they wish it didn't. And finally, most girls are very self centered (just like guys), and without a faith and moral conduct, preventing them from being overly selfish, they see babies as a toy. Something that will make them happy. I've seen this a number of times. Where mothers hold onto their children so tight, because it's all about them, and their children are there to make them happy. Of course that only works until the children get old enough to move on, and then suddenly they move to the opposite side of the country, and never call. Its really sad when that breaks down, because the mother never figures out she's the issue, and ends up being really sad. Oh and by the way, there are always exceptions, but in my limited experience, these are typical.

sometimes alot of teens girl really want to have a baby because they see so many of woman have their baby's and also maybe we also want to have our own kids and have responsibility for the child so the can daddy to help u during your pregnacy after u have your child u could finish school also get a job but u know what alot us might care and might not care about what we do even our mom get mad cuz they know right before u tell them. some of us teens think we are not ready yet to be a mommy because we dont know what to when you have that baby we get so scared sometimes when giving birth to a baby boy/girl so maybe all of us should wait and be clam just dont rush into things so fast just think about it okay bye now......................

In my own point of view, why these young girls wanted to become pregnant, probably because they are experimenting no matter what will happen or what may be the consequences are. This kind of behavior is against public order and policy and I wouldn't appreciate it.

I think some teens, possibly because they haven't yet matured to the point where they can see things in a more grounded, realistic way, believe that (when within a relationship), getting pregnant will cement the relationship and keep the man with them when sadly, the opposite is most often the ultimate result. Also sometimes I think some teens, whether in a relationship or not, can feel rather isolated and lonely as teenagehood can be a confusing time, and they see having a baby as making and creating something to love them and to love which is all their own. Sadly, many of these girls don't realise the huge responsibilities involved in creating another life and bringing up a child.

Hi Zamara, some teens do not think what they are gonna face in the future. they just want to do anything for their boyfriend. if they are well knowledge about having baby in early age is a big matter, they will think twice to have it

Teens have very impressionable young minds. Some of them think that getting pregnant, having a baby shows a sign of maturity. Or them getting on with their lives. But what isn't clear to them is the responsibility that comes with it. And how some of the things that they are free to do, isn't anymore when they have their families already.

It is so simple. They think a baby will give them what they really want, love. Somehow they don't feel love from their parents. So they think they will be loved by a baby and their boyfriend. They can't know how hard it is to raise a child and by the time they find out , it is too late!

Some teens want to have a baby that will love them and be a bit like a baby doll. They think they can play with him or her like a toy. They don't understand the commitment or the night feeds. A baby when born needs around the clock care which is exhausting. They just think of the sweet little baby outfits for sale and the general cuteness. Some teens don't get on well with their studies. They don't know which career they want. They try to get pregnant to become a stay at home mom. One teen loved her boyfriend and thought having a baby was the best way to keep him. She didn't realize they had different parenting styles. Many teens get pregnant by mistake. Some of that sort of teen are upset to get a positive pregnancy result but they then get used to the idea of becoming a mom to a baby.

Since I was a teenager once and kind of was an outcast since I did not follow the crowd, I think I can share my thoughts on this trend. As part of a crowd, it looks like the ideal thing to being a woman is to get pregnant for your boyfriend or 'grown male friend'. It is seen as being the woman of the said male and the fact that the male in quesiton may have lots of money and a fancy car adds to the hype that "you will be taken care of for the rest of your life" and thta my friend is one of the contributing cause to this problem.

They need a dose of reality. Maybe like my aunt Louise. She was the oldest surviving child of 10. She told my mother that she had seen enough babies to last a lifetime and didn't ever want any children of her own. She didn't have any, either.

People are just lonely. We live in a lonely society. Everyone wants to be in a relationship because it makes them feel important; even when the relationship is unhealthy. The kids wanting to have kids thing is just the same. People are always talking about how their children are the light of their life and being a parent is the best thing ever, etc. And then a lot of girls think that if they get pregnant then the guy won't leave them. People just want to matter. We do desperate things when we are desperate.

What a question dear friend?? ehehehhehe, i guess these teens who just don't care of what will be the outcome later are really impossible, the subject of being pregnant is NEVER A JOKE, It is a very BIG RESPONSIBILITY, so really if some teens want just to be pregnant I GUESS THEY ARE ON THE WRONG TRACK, sorry for the outcome...

Maybe they are just saying it because they are too aggressive as teenagers,they will only learn as they get into the relationship deeper. They are just saying they want to have a baby from the one they are into because they are blinded by the kind of feeling they do not even know how to explain. With the help of the parents we can guide and watch them carefully so as not to jump into a dying situation for their future. Girls maybe losing a lot but the situation now are no longer conservative and the acceptance for ones mistakes is open for a solution done in discussions.

Hi Zamara69, I think sometimes teens want to get pregnant to get the ooohs and aaaahs from all their friends as their baby bump develops... and then after having the baby, I think they really want the baby to fill a void in their lives... like wanting the baby to love them. I think some girls want to get pregnant because their home lives aren't exactly what they want them to be. I think, if they had a lot going for them and they had good family support they wouldn't want to throw away their futures to get pregnant and have babies. Once they have them and realize they aren't dolls that you can just put down, I think reality sets in and then the grandparents often end up taking care of the baby or they refuse to help and the teen is left trying to fend for herself.

Mostly these happen with those girls whose parents both are doing Job and childern live alone in home. To remove their lazy and loneliness they make boyfriend or girlfriend and teenage have not much knowledge about world, they sometime do bad task which result in pregnancy.

I remember when i was a teenager i wanted to be pregnent too. I mostly felt so alone and wanted to have someone close in my life. Also i wanted to experience the feeling if life inside of me. I ended up becoming mommy for the first time at age 17.

I don't know why some kids are that way. When I was 17 I got pregnant but I wanted a child. But the man I married was a big mistake. Kids need to live there life and be happy and look for a job they always wanted before thinking about kids. Having babies is a lot of hard work.

This is the effect of the movies and what they shows in the movies When they are in young and in love for them everything look to be green and until they does not realize their mistake

Kids nowadays don't think much of the consequences of their actions, they just do whatever to them seem right at the moment. Some teens want to get pregnant because all they know that life will be so easy when they will have a baby never thinking that it is the other way around. Some also think that babies are cute so what the hell am I doing not making one. And for some reason they just do it out of curiosity. They just see it as fun.

Hi! I can understand your concern and as I have two little ones myself, I do hope that I will never go through this. My GUESS is that some want someone who unequivocally loves them and for some, this can be a very powerful feeling. I'm not saying that getting pregnant at 16 is the best idea...far from it but if there is someone serious in wanting to have kids, I would strongly suggest that they be put in a safe area where they HAVE to look after young kids and not just for a couple of hours; perhaps a month if not more. Why? So they can get a real look at what child rearing is like. How demanding it can be and how you have to make sure the child is SAFE before you go and do your own thing. Perhaps this will get them to understand that having children is not to be taken lightly. Hypothetically speaking if I became pregnant at 17 (and after my family had recovered their wits), I can imagine they would say, finish school even if its GED, get a job that involves looking after kids, and we will set up a schedule that will work with everyone. Basically, your social life as you knew it is on hold and afterwards we will look into long-term birth control.
