I've just become a satistic......
a young single mother... (shock, horror!#?)
how do I feel about GREAT my life is amazing and even through the all nighters, nappies and feeding I have found a well of love within me that i didnt know existed. I look at my
daughter and i thank the gods for an amazing gift, she is perfect (even when screaming).
But people- friends, family and Strangers (not all mind you) do'nt seem to feel that way. I'm looked at with some sympathy, tension and doubt most of all..... And the questions the same consant questions...
How old is she?
how old are you?
oh daddy must be proud...?
doing it alone well that must be tough...?
I don't believe age is a factor because when it comes down to it as soon as you get that second pink stripe you grow up, life from then on ,no matter what you choice is, will be different. I'm young and not as young as some but again we all do the best we can with what we have at the time.... i woudl never give up what i have and there are some people that shoulnt be parents but i don't think it has anything to do with age. it has to do with the persons makeup who they are one the inside and also who their willing to become to be a parent.
so....
to all the young and/or single mums out there, stand up and be counted show yourself, not others what you can do, because your amazing and you've already done the hardest thing Birth now life comes and it is and big wonderful world with endless possabilities for you and your child. good luck and know you are goddess's is the flesh.
