For a better understanding on what I'm trying to explain is that some parents have children and rely on their parents to take care of the child while they go off and do other things that they want. My mother had me when she was fairly young and she didn't plan to have me, but it happened. But as a young mother she stepped up to take care of my brother and I. She got a job, and eventually dropped out of school to take care of us. She still works hard to take care of us and she doesn't rely on anyone else to take care of us. For example you know the show 16 and pregnant, some of those kids were barely home to take care of the child. Yes we all need some help at time, but to use an excuse that "you're still young" and going out partying isn't an exception in my. I feel as though once you have a child, it's time to grow up, cause now you're a role model and you don't want to set a bad example for that child. I do know a lot of parents who got pregnant when they were young and are great parents. I'm not saying all young parents are bad and yea not all pregnancy's are planned, But the ones who can't care and step up to be a parent should not reproduce at all. Hopefully this helps understand me more clearer. If not, I'm happy to answer any questions.
This I believe. I believe that unstable parents shouldn’t have children. I believe that parents who can barely support themselves shouldn’t bring another life into this world if they can’t provide for them. I believe this because I have seen so many adults have children who can’t even take care of themselves. Yes it is there life and how they choose to live it, but I don’t think any child should be put into an unstable home. I believe that to have a child you should at least have a stable job and a stable home. Parents should be able to provide their children with new clothing and that child should be able to feel safe at home. I hate to see so many young people get pregnant and just get rid of their child because they are not “ready” to play the role as a parent, yet you have loving people who do anything to have a child but can’t have kids. This upsets me because no child should ever feel unwanted or even neglected. I believe that every child deserves to live a life of happiness with a loving family. I know not everyone grew up like this but seeing now and days how so many kids are put into shelters and some never finding a home makes me sad. Some people just don’t know how lucky they are and is too selfish to even realize the struggle some kids have to go through to survive. This is why I believe that unstable parents should not have children.

I love this statement. You could not have a stronger supporter. I feel so many parents are so busy with their own that they forget to sacrifice the way a parent should. This then leads a child to become an adult way to soon and the viscous cycle continues. I would love to hear more of your thoughts on this. Defiantly grabbed my attention lady!!!

I agree. It sad when people don't think before they act.

Looks like folks are intrigued by your topic and position. Puts me in that category. I wonder what specific scenes/moments/experiences you could add here? Also, what are the alternatives? If someone gets pregnant, what should that person do? Just something to consider. This is an intriguing draft...

Also, how could this piece be revised to illustrate a growth mindset?

I totally agree with you I got pregnant at 21 and had to make a lot of sacrifices to be able to give my daughter the life she deserves. But I wonder, you say people shouldn't have a child if they aren't ready, but you also allude to being against abortion/ adoption. What would the alternative be for a young mom who fully knows she isn't able to support a baby?
