When is it too young to...

I say 18 is fine. Atleast when your kid grows up to be 18 you won't be some old ass parent thats 48-50. Saying "I'm hip, I'm cool" Taca Taca taca taca......

Also, you will have a decision to make. Since it isn't your child, you don't have to have anything to do with it. You can either just go about your life... or you can be a loving, caring aunt to that child. If his home life ends up bad, you could be one of the only people to be there for him.[/QUOTE]

X2!
 
[quote name='Saucy Jack']I can definitely understand that you are concerned about your brother and his girlfriend having a child. However, you don't know how he'll act until that baby is born. Even if he acts like an asshole during the pregnancy, when he sees his child, there's a good chance he'll fall in love with him/her, and they will become the most important thing in his life. I've seen this happen before.

I spent a good hour, eventually giving up, trying to say just that. :applause:

then fuck it, tell him he already got his present (baby) and get him NOTHING!

Problem solved,
No money spent,
you being happy, priceless (just remember to say no babysitting)
 
You just never know how these situations will be. Provided they take care of the kid like they should all should work out. If they are like my cousin who said she couldn't handle her two kids and gave them to my family for a whole year, it could suck.

My point exactly, its not the age that concerns me, its the fact that theyve only been together for less than 4 months... the age regardless is young, but thats excuseable to an extent... but they dont even know if they can handle each other long term yet, let alone bear the responsiblities of another child... thats a recipe for disaster
 
My brother had a kid when he was 18 (him and his g/f). They are both 19 now and their kid is like 18 months or somethin like that. The mom is really responsible and a really good mom but my brother has room for improvment. He is a good dad but he doesnt like to be home all the time which is kinda stupid.

Yeah, and you'll be able to look back on your 20s and remember all the crazy wild fun you had while you were still in the prime of your life... no wait it will be full of diaper changing and "just order delivery" saturdays.

Hey, if raising kids young is your bag that's cool - there's just other factors you should consider before you start riding bareback.
 
The plus side of having kids young is if your're lucky they'll grow up and be on their own before you hit 40. I'm glad I had my kids young cause it enabled me to relate a little better to the things going on in their day to day lives. My kids have never told me "it's different know than when you were young, you just don't understand"
