The one thing that I would advise you to consider is to complete your education before you have a child. It is really hard to work a job full or part time, go to school if that is something you want to do and take care of a child. Now me, when I was seventeen, I wasn't even sure what job or education I wanted to pursue so it took me a few years to find the path right for me.

Are there ways you might express your love for children now by perhaps babysitting or working some this summer at a daycare? Quite honestly it is fun to be able to enjoy children and then send them home with their parents sometimes.
That sounds like a good idea actually. The only problem is that all the daycare centers have enough work experience volunteers from what I know. And nobody I know needs a babysitter or knows me well enough to leave their kids with me probably. Hmm. I dunno. Thanks anyway, worth a try!

Don't be embarrassed to bring this up in T - that is what T is for.
i'm sure you will be an awesome Mom but it doesn't have to be NOW. It can be in 5 or 10 or 15 years when you've had some more life experience. I don't know where you are, but if you can catch an episode of '16 and Pregnant" on MTV, those girls do not have it easy.
I know you're right aswell. I guess it's just, some of the other things I've touched upon with my T makes me wonder if he would be thinking I'm as out of my mind I as think I must be! Oh I dunno! You know, the odd thing about your suggestion is that I was watching Teen Mom by MTV yesterday and I know they don't have it easy at all. Yet I feel even more by watching it that I can do a good job (like the blonde Southern girl - I forget her name) so perhaps I should avoid it - or watch some of the ones on the British channels where they have it bad

Haha sorry I talk too much sometimes. Thanks for all your suggestions!
