Today I just found out that my TEEN (18) daughter is pregnant with her second child and isn't with the father anymore because he slapped her and was becoming very aggressive with her. I was very upset with her and I could have handled it better but she can barely take care of the child she has nowand really is not doing very well as far as being a mother. She is wanting to go out clubbing, staying with friends and leaving little time to spend with the baby she has now! Maybe I'm over reacting but I am very concerned because of her situation and which the baby to be father is! Can someone please give me some advice???

She does not live with me she stayS at her dadS, but does stay with me every now and than, she does work and has been working for almost a year, she's doesn't drink do drugs or party she is to scared to... plus she is still nursing my grand daughter! The baby isn't neglected or uncared for because she has a wonderful daddy who helps my daughter with the baby and all of there needs regardless if he's with my daughter or not. .. What I was talking about when I said she wants to go party is she likes to go clubbing and dancing. She was doing it every weekend for a while but I had a talk with her and she stopped, I just know my daughter and I know that if she we're to have another child any time soon she really would be overwhelmed with something that she wasn't ready for. When she is her at my house I have to constantly have to be on her to check on the baby and ask her to pay more attention to her.... cause the baby could be right in front of her sayin Mama Mama and my daughter is like in another world! I don't know, I just know her and I know that she is capable to do more for her daughter without anyone telling her! Maybe I'm being a push over or control freak I don't know, I just know another baby wouldn't have been good especially with a control, jealous, abusive man she was with! And yes she did dump him Finley too.... I'm so relieved! I think I'm just a over reactor at times but I feel it's for good reason! What do you think?

I know I had my son at 18. I was to depressed to care for him, luckily my husband was a wonderful but overwhelmed father. As he got older I got healthier. Most people I know has children 1-2 years apart, whether overwhelmed or not. I don't feel if the baby is w. daddy there is any issue with her clubbing.
I have to constantly have to be on her to check on the baby and ask her to pay more attention to her Please stop doing this. It undermines her parenting, can cause her to see you less and hurt mommy and baby bond. She'll be a worse parent if she's second guessing everything. Really really have her look into an Iud or depo shot.

may i suggest you talk to her about getting a long term contraception injected into her arm, i am not exactly sure how long it lasts but just know many young girls over here are opting for it as it means they do not have to worry about getting pregnant or remembering to take pills every day.

Wow. I had a child at 16 and other than school and work, my son was my responsibility. My mom would never let me go out with friends or anything.
