First and foremost, I do not believe I am too young to have children. I believe maturity has far more weight than how many years I've been on this planet.

Also, I wouldn't dump the baby on my grandmother to go clubbing. I do not party. I do not drink. I rarely leave the house unless for work or running errands. My fiance and I always make time to spend with each other.

I'm not saying I'm not listening to your advice. I understand what you are saying. I need a chance to be me. I know that when I baby comes along things change, and sometimes its not all giggles and fun times.

As for education, I do intend on furthering my education but I'll have to do it slowly and more than likely on the internet. And I want you all to know that I do not have any intention of having a baby NOW. Perhaps in the next 2 years or so, so I'm not jumping into this right now. I'm going to take my time and get everything straight and in place before we even take that plunge into parenthood.

And as for marriage. This is kind of a awkward subject for some but for the sake of the discussion I will say this. My fiance is biologically a woman and therefore, we cannot get married. Maybe not for a few more years. We have been together for almost 4.5 years and live together in a two bedroom townhouse. We basically consider ourselves married, except we don't have the legal papers saying we are.
