"Q: I am 17, and have been dating my boyfriend for 2 years and he recently told me that he wants to have a baby with me. I told him I would think about it. What should I do? I love him and I want to be with him but I don&amp;#039;t want him to leave me if I don&amp;#039;t do it. -Not Ready A: It&amp;#039;s easy for him to want a baby! Is he going to carry it in his womb for nine months? Is he going to wake up and vomit from morning sickness? Is he going to experience painful swollen ankles and legs? Will he then have strange doctors and nurses poking their hands up him every five minutes? Is he going to wake up every hour and a half and feed his baby? Does he have a career and health insurance so he can support a family? It&amp;#039;s not cheap!   Babies are cute but they are also exhausting and difficult. You&amp;#039;re only seventeen. Enjoy your teens, get an education and put yourself in a better position to be a good parent. You owe it to yourself and to the children that you will have someday. If your boyfriend can&amp;#039;t understand why you would want to wait then he&amp;#039;s not only selfish, but he&amp;#039;s also dumb. You can do better!
