I saw some show trailer on like, TLC or one of those stations where they are 'lending' babies to teenage couples and see how they do.

I think of me at 17 and am like, hell, I WAS doing that at 17 (my goddaughter was born that year), but I also had a job, a car, a high school education, etc.

Nope, they have NO idea how hard it is if you are unprepared (or if you ARE prepared! ). I watched that with my stepdaughters, and the one with the baby was 19, with almost 18 year old and 16 year old sisters, and none of them had a CLUE. Like, SCARY, no clue. And it's not like they were lacking financially or anything like that. They had us -- they LIVED with us most of the baby's first year. So they had me around a lot. But you can just go around popping out kids and taking them home...

She's on her third. Did I tell y'all? Brennon is 3 in October, the newest one is 6 months, and she's pg again. She'll be...22 I think this fall?
