hi there, yes i do feel as if im being judged mostly when im outside with my daughter, i think it's the fact that im 19, and look about 15, people must think im so young with a child when really im not!

I had my sone at 22 and I still contuine to get stares or comments about how I am to young. I am not 26 and having my second. I hate when people judge you or think that you are bad mom cause you are young. I am sure you are quite a great mom!

As long as you are taking good care of your children and meeting their physical and emotional needs what would they have to judge you about? I guess if you were sending your 7 beautiful children out begging door to door for food it would be different. Don't worry about what other people think. Some young moms are very good parents.

I do feel that way alot! I have my daughter when I was 19 and people really made me feel bad for getting pregnant so young, it wasn't like I was irresponsible and I was married to the father, people just need to mind their own business!! I had my son at 23 and people were a little better, I think it is because I look so young..people thought I was a "babyy having a baby" I guess!!

Wauw....7 children. What a beautiful family you have there !!!! I envy you.
I'm kinda know how you feel. Lotsa other "moms" also judged me. They will always find a reason to judge someone. Doesn't matter what. I don't really act like a mom to my daughter more like friends or sisters. We do things together, I follow the trend from clothing to shoes to music even children cartoon program. So when children talk to me I can respond them back in their "language". And I'm quite small for my age. Most of mother from my daughter school didn't really like it. They think I'm childish and should act more as "normal mom". Hmm, maybe they should tell me what "normal" is.
My husband always said, don't mind other people. We didn't do anything wrong and we raised our family and daughter good.......just because they have what they called "mother look" doesn't mean that they are doing good as well. You'll never know... some evils sometimes hiding behind pretty faces....
