Default Re: what do you think??

"If, for example, you have got a very young mother-to-be who is 15, 16 or 17-years-old and isn't living at home, it is pretty obvious that that is someone who has got certain challenges about to confront them in their lives," Mr Blair told the meeting at Downing Street.

This is the part that got me. I was only nearly 17 when I had my first baby and I was married to their father and still am after 11 years.( yes I know...I don't waste time) lol. My child wasn't born into poverty and was and is very much loved as is his younger brother who I had when I was 19. Ok I was young, but that didn't make me a bad mother. And I worked and still do, and so did their father and still does.

And I think any mother young or old will tell you " certain challenges" lie ahead when you enter parenthood.
