THIS PAGE IS ABOUT BEING A TEEN PARENT AND HAVING A CHILD WITH A DISABLITY

THIS ANGEL IS WATCHING OVER MY SON.

I'LL START OUT BY TELLING YOU ABOUT MYSELF.MY NAME IS CHARLOTTE,I'M 18,I'M MARRIED AND I HAVE A SON.SO I'M NOT LIKE MOST TEENAGERS.MY HUSBAND HAS A WEBRING CALLED YOUNG PARENTS WEBRING,YOU CAN FIND OUT MORE BY CLICKING ON THE LINK. I HAVE MADE THIS PAGE SO OTHER PEOPLE CAN FIND OUT WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE A TEEN PARENT,AND FOR OTHER TEEN PARENTS. I WASN'T A BAD TEENAGER,I HAD NEVER BEEN IN TROUBLE.THEN I GOT WITH MY BOYFRIEND(NOW HUSBAND)AND I ENDED UP PREGNANT.I DIDN'T REGRET IT AND I STILL LOVE MY SON VERY MUCH,BUT I DO WISH I WOULD HAVE WAITED,I MISS BEING A NORMAL TEENAGER. IT ISN'T EASY BEING A TEEN PARENT,YOU NOT ONLY HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF,BUT YOU ALSO HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF A HELPLESS CHILD.MY DAY CONSIST OF TAKING CARE OF MY SON AND DOING HOUSWORK,I GET NO TIME FOR MYSELF.I RARELY GET TO GO OUT ALONE.I'M TELLING ALL OF YOU NOW IT IS NOT EASY,SO IF YOU THINK YOU WANT A CHILD,WAIT,THINK IT OVER OR TALK TO ANOTHER TEEN PARENT.THEN MAKE YOUR DECISION.I WANT TO HELP DO SOMETHING ABOUT TEEN PREGNANCY,I DON'T WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO JUST SIT BACK AND DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.SO IF YOU ARE A TEENAGER AND YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT HAVING A BABY,TALK TO ME FIRST,MAYBE I CAN CHANGE YOUR MIND.BELIEVE ME I WISH I WOULD HAVE WAITED.

I KNOW PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT HAVING A CHILD WITH A DISABLITY,BUT IT DOES HAPPEN.I KNOW I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT IT AT ALL WHEN I WAS PREGNANT,I THOUGHT IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO ME.BUT I WAS WRONG. IT DID HAPPEN TO ME.MY SON ANDREW HAS ANMNOTIC BANDING WHICH MEANS HIS FINGERS AND TOES ARE BANDED TOGETHER AND HE HAS SOME MISSING,AND HE ALSO HAS CLUBBED FOOT. IT ISN'T EASY HAS A CHILD WHO IS DIFFERENT.PEOPLE STARE AND SAY RUDE THINGS,AND SOME PEOPLE EVEN BLAME ME FOR IT,BUT IT WASN'T MY FAULT THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE TO PREVENT IT.I JUST WANT TO SAY FOR THOSE PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO LIKE TO MAKE IN FUN OF PEOPLE,JUST STOP AND THINK "WHAT IF IT WAS ME".

IF YOU ARE A PREGNANT TEEN AND YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO,OR IF YOU ARE A PARENT OF A SPECIAL NEEDS CHILD AND YOU WANT SOMEONE TO TALK TO FEEL FREE TO E-MAIL ME.I ALSO HAVE ICQ MY UIN IS 12477350 AND I ALSO HAVE YAHOO PAGER. ANDY'S PICTURES
