The Right Action towards your pregnant female Teenager.

Hello Everyone in the #hiveNaijacommunity. Welcome to my blog. I hope we're all doing fine?
Glad I'm back and will be participating in this week's prompt.

Teenage is one of the crucial periods of one's life. Most teenagers have made wrong mistakes that have affected their lives today and their future. Most of them never had lessons from their parents and so they end up getting lessons from their peers which have ended up destroying their futures. And others had opportunities where their parents taught them a lot of things but they ended up neglecting the lessons and choosing their paths and they have ended up regretting.

A lot of parents have failed in their duties as parents to raise their teens. They have over pampered them to the stage that they can't have control over them. Instead the children are the ones controlling the parent and such children can never listen to whatever the parent has to say. I have a scenario where our neighbour is now trying to make her daughter tour the right path but it's now late. While growing up she never for once cautioned the daughter.

Each time she does anything she will say she is a child and that she is her only daughter so because of that she cannot really call her to order. But now the girl has grown worse, presently a teenager of 16 is pregnant and currently at home with the mother when she is supposed to be in school. This would have been abated if the mum had started at the right time to caution the child while seeing some characters she ought not to have portrayed at her age. But because she felt guiding the child will signify that she doesn't love the child.

There are also cases where the parents have done their best to raise their teens up in the right way but some of them due to peer pressure, they have neglected their parents lessons and have gone down the wrong path.

As a parent no matter how bad your child is, you still have to protect your child. I think during that time is when you will be able to get back that child. I have seen parents disown their children because they got pregnant while seeking admission into the university while others make them stop there because they are pregnant. As hurting as that could be especially for the parents that have tried their best to train their children up well. No matter what they do they are still ours and disowning them or punishing them by making them stop their education because of pregnancy is actually not the best thing to do. In such a case as a parent, I will make sure I still do the needful for you which is gaining Admission and going to school as you were. You will go to school with the pregnancy and with your child. Since you wanted to have a baby you will have the baby and still go to school.

I have a friend that got pregnant while in school as stubborn as she was. After she gave birth her mother got the baby from her and told her she will complete her school so she graduates and takes care of her baby and i was so shocked that my friend changed for the better. Because of that single act according to her she thought that was the end for her because she knew the kind of parent she had but to her surprise instead of throwing her out they still gave her a chance that alone made my friend to change. So with this scenario I gathered that there are different approaches to getting a child to change rather than the hard way.

Thanks for stopping by my Blog.

You have touched vital areas regarding this topic. It can be painful for parents who has diligently performed their parental duties in the life of their daughter but yet, the daughter choose another path of life. However, this kind of mistake shouldn't be the time to throw them away but look for remedies like the one you discussed so they can still have a bright future regardless of their costly mistake

I had done the same thing, I wouldn't disown or abandon my daughter because she got pregnant out of wedlock

This is a very good approach to a case like this. Although it can be quite painful how you try to inculcate morals into a child and yet it is like you are pouring water on a rock. But at such point, what matters is how you deal with the situation.
