My story- advice and no judgmental comments.?
Posted in enart.xn--gmq282eogn.com on the March 21, 2010
I am just needing some advice on names, dicipline (my son is playing up since my mother died. Whom he was very close to.) and how to potty train correctly. I would also very much like to know your stories if you too are Christian or a teen mother or were a teen mother.
Thankyou all so much!

but can i ask, and i hope i dont offend you. if you dont believe in contraception, why did you not wait till you were married to have sex?
just confused, is all.
im so sorry for your loss's and have u tried explaining to your son about ur mother? obv dont be graphic but explain she is above looking down and she will always be near him if he needs her.
all the best xxxxx
i wont judge at all, you look after your kids, you sound stable, im happy for you
i grew up in a very religious catholic home too, but the only difference was my mother wouldv shot me if i had sex before marriage, lol,,, so i waited till i married at 19, i now have 4 kids
your son is still very young to atart training,, dont stress at all, wait another 6months till hes more ready,,,, take it from there, starting too early is frustrating and usually a wste of time [through my experience]
diciplining now is also hard,, the terrible twos are a hard time, it will pass though, take things naturally, if he does something wrong, tell him immediately, hopefully he will learn
im catholic,, and me and hubby use condoms,, 4 kids are alot of work
i know very strong christians who use birth control,, how many kids can u handle????, lol,, enough is enough 4 me
i cant beleive u are only 17 and will have 4 kids,,,, woahhhhhhhhhhhhh , good luck, im 33 and married, stable,, and i find every day a struggle, its very hard work, lol xxxxxxxxxxxxxx good luck
As for names, I'm thinking Sarah and John!
Doesn't it make you sad that a person would thumbs down a lifestyle choice that promotes healthy families. I just don't get it. Why is doing the right thing for children ok only if it involves abortion, or divorce?
Toilet training: this will always be trial and error, you need to get potties for the both of them, get them familiar with it, let them sit and play with it to get to know it better. then start putting on "big Girl" Pants and "big boy" pants and take them to the potty every hour. if they tug at their pants then its time to go, yes their will be tons of accidents so you have to be patient on this. You will get it right!
Im sorry to hear about your parents! I think to name them after your parents is a good idea from the 1st answer. Wish you luck for the future!
You've not been delt the best hand by the looks of it, but you've done well. Congratulations!
Naming your twins after your parents would be lovely.
Good Luck!
i think compared to a lot of young mums you are in a much better emotional situation and sound mature enough for your age to cope with this. In regards to parenting advice, as well as looking online obviously have you tried any local parenting groups? maybe the NCT? they do a lot of work for teen mums and ive not found them to be at all judgemental.
Lisa and Michael are nice names, and yes may seem old, but everything comes back in fashion, just look at names like Ruby and Millie. If you want you can always shorten Michael to Mike which still gives it a sense of modernity and i think Lisa is a lovely name, classic but still very pretty for a girl.
i wish you all the best of luck with all your children.
