That has to be hard for someone at any age, but maybe it's especially hard for a teenage mom because at that time in your life, you really are at a stage where you are meant to be figuring yourself out, deciding who you are and who you want to become.Shelf Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18411801633280373756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-53539758693597028642009-08-03T13:30:45.781-07:002009-08-03T13:30:45.781-07:00That's a good point, Sam.

All of a sudden, we were in two different worlds!<br /><br />Teens CAN be vicious -- that sooo true! But it seems like it's only the girl who gets talked about behind her back. The boy gets off the hook!

Hopefully they have a network of love surrounding them. <br /><br />The sacrifice a parent makes is so great, just thinking for a second on the physical level, I can't imagine making those while still physically growing.
