Want a baby?

Today at USAO, I learned that the best birth control in the world is babysitting. If you are young and are dying to have children, you might change your mind after you babysit a kid. Yes, they are such a joy and they are so adorable, but wait until you know you can handle it. I have an 18 month old niece that is the cutest little thing, but you cannot take your eyes off of her or she will end up in the toilet or throwing breakables on the ground. You will want to pull your hair out and scream they can be so frustrating. I am not saying that having children is a bad thing. I am saying plan on having the child and be smart before you really want one. There are teenagers having kids at 16. That is way too young and at that age they don’t know how to properly take care of their baby which is not fair to the mother or the child. They are a handful and they take one hundred percent of your attention. They are so many ways to prevent having an unwanted pregnancy. But the best birth control for me was watching my niece. If you want to have a kid come watch my niece for a day and then you can decide if you really want to have one at this point in time or if you should wait a couple years. Because my niece you can give back, once you have your own you can’t just give it back from where it came from. Just be smart and use your head.
