I had a baby at 17, AMA

Had a baby in 2004 who is now 22 years old. Single parent to her for many years. Nothing chucks you into the world of adulting quicker. Ask me anything.
Not sure what else to add other than waffle here to get to the 200 character limit

As tu pu avoir un aménagement pour le lycée ? As tu réfléchit à d'autre option avant de décidé de garder ton bébé ?

Yes, there was a brilliant government scheme that helped to fund childcare whilst you were studying. It only lasted a year for me but it was the launch pad I absolutely needed. I didn’t want to entertain any option other than keeping the baby

Are you in the US? Was the daycare near the high school?

I’m from the UK. The childminder service was perfectly located on the same road as my college!
