Question:
I'm a 15-year-old boy and want a baby girl?
2017-04-04 22:08:53 UTC
Hello, I don't want any hurtful or negative comments, so if you're here just to slate me don't bother. I'm a 15-year-old boy and I want a baby girl. I've got no one in my life, I suffer with depression and OCD, more recently my OCD has got slightly better and I'm on medication. But that aside, I've got nobody to turn to, I've been feeling like this for a long time, I told several of my ex-friends, all of them are too immature to understand me. I've got an old soul, most people my age are out constantly, I'm at home with a cup of tea. I cry night after night, All I want is a baby girl, I want that responsibility, I want that Father daughter bond, I've got all the love in the world to give and I want to devote my life to her, surely this doesn't make me a bad person. I often imagine she's with me, she makes me smile, she's what keeps me going day after day, knowing that she will be with me, I've already picked a name, Sophie Rose. All I want is a daughter, I know I'll get comments saying 'You're too young, you're immature' but I'm not, I've grown up, I'm not like other people my age. All I want is to be a dad, I feel like I have no one to confide in. I just want a baby girl so much

On my last post, I had people calling me a 'moron'. I'm sorry but how the hell does that make me a bad person. I'm ready for a baby and I'm ready for the responsibility, I have NOTHING in my life, and I'd devote my entire life to my daughter.

You are to young. Children can be very stressful. Having a child is not going to help with any of your mental issues or relieve them. In fact, they will increase. As a teenager, you need to get help instead of taking matters into your own hands.

Troll or not, I don't really care.



You ARE too young, you have to understand that, if you get some girl pregnant now, you might regret it in the future. You sound really sweet, but you also seem to have a fantasy view point, its easy to think that one thing can solve all the issues in life, but it can;t and it won't. Not to mention, a baby is not all cute and cuddly, their pretty darn annoying, they cry a lot, poop, cost a lot, etc.



Instead of a baby, why don't find a girlfriend first?



I get the old soul thing, as I usually do things that most people my age don;t, thing is, you have to remember you are only 15, not even 16.



Oh, and a few people are something your completely mentally ill, and yes, you do have mental illness, but that doesn't make you any less of a person, and don;t let anyone make you feel any less like one no matter what.

I hope you get your longed-for daughter eventually, when you are over 25 years old.



Note that the sex of the baby cannot be chosen by the couple who start off that process. In modern times (last 30 years or less) the sex of the baby can be discovered before birth, but it cannot be changed.

Oh, man, what a sweet fantasy tale. :) I especially like the "with a cup of tea" part. :)



But if it was true, I'd say you should wait until you graduate high school, find a committed partner and get at least a part-time job. Contrary to what some people here say, money would be the least of your problems, because you could be supported by the state or your parents. YES, I said it: the poor with children should be supported in keeping them. But - you are immature and need medical help. So if this was true, I'd urge you to wait. And get a treatment.



But it's not true, so...

It sounds like you're a sweet guy with a big heart. Baby fever is perfectly normal in teens. They want the responsibility and an adorable baby to care for. However raising tiny humans isn't easy or always fun (I have three). Especially since you're depressed, you may think a child would fix that but they really wouldn't and it would make it worse for both of you. It would be selfish to bring a child into this world if you can't give them the best life possible. You are still finding yourself. You are depressed so taking care of yourself is so important. Having a child means being 110% selfless, sacrificing everything and putting yourself second. Are you mentally and financially secure enough for a child? I too am an old soul, I didn't feel like a teen at your age, I felt like I was years ahead and I was depressed and craved the responsibility and love of a child. I constantly daydreamed about my child. I had my first as a mature but depressed 16 year old and i love her SO much but I do wish I'd waited, even just two or three more years, until I was in a better place. That would've been good for both of us. You will make a GREAT father someday, maybe not long from now, but I don't think it would be a great idea right now.

i'm not going to bash you because i could understand where you are coming from. but, are you prepared for how much a baby is going to cost? in the first year alone a child is going to cost more than 5 grand. do you have support from your friends or family. what do your parents think of this? all these related questions. if you have your mind set there is nothing that is going to change that, and i understand. but, also. getting a girl pregnant can also result in having a boy... would you still care for your son even though he isn't a girl? there is no sure way to make sure you could have a daughter other than marrying someone with a daughter already or taking the risk of having a boy or girl.

A baby cannot cure mental illness.

Regardless of whether or not you're mature enough to father a child, are you ABLE to? Do you have a full-time job so that you can support the two of you? Do you have a support group that will take care of her when you cannot? Do you know what goes into raising a healthy child? If you answered "no" to any of those questions, you're not ready to have a child yet. On top of that, your entire post was just a bunch of statements and included no questions. This is a question/answer site, Jack. It's not a site where you just tell people how you feel about stuff. It's not a chat site. Do you have a question you'd like to ask?

Just HOW is a 15-year-old boy going to get a daughter for himself? You can't impregnate yourself and give birth. You first have to find a girl who is willing to have a baby.



Even if you DID find such a girl; the odds that the child would turn out to be a girl are 50/50. If it was a boy, then that's YOUR fault. The sex of a child is determined by whichever sex chromosome is contained in each individual male sperm cell, and the male has absolutely no control over which sperm cell fertilizes an egg. You take what you get.



Assuming you did get lucky and had a girl at your age, do you have the extra 10 grand that it's going to take to raise "Sophie Rose" just during her first year of life? I think not.

Okay , I understand you want a baby girl but you've got to understand the expenses of a child before you jump to conclusion , you have to have a house diapers ,money , money for doctors appointments, , a committed relationship with you and you're spouse or / gf . I think it's very cute honestly but I say please wait till you're older to make you're final decision.

If you truthfully think this you need to rethink it............too young to have children.

With supervision you can help out in the church nursery to help with babies.......maybe this will help you calm down and learn about life in general. SUPERVISION ONLY.

Has to be a tro



You can't have a child. Your body can't support a fetus and there's no way possible you can take care of a child. You can't get a job that will even cover hospital bills much-less anything the baby will need. You have no time for a child since you have school. Your parents will rightfully give it up for adoption any way and there's nothing you can do since you are a child and have no rights



You are mentally ill so having a child is the worst thing ever. The child will be mentally ill as well and will be a burden on the system.



." I've got an old soul"



No you dont There's no such thing as a soul. You are a spoiled bratty child who has been coddled too much

I suppose you're going to feed the child with morning dew and build a home for you and she under a forest mushroom? Will spiders weave her clothing out of their silk as well?

You don't bring a life into to this world to fulfill you. To keep you going. That is up to ypu and you ALONE. A baby does not need a job. It is unfair to expect it from a life which can do nothing for itself. And that is what you will doing when you have a baby. You will be bringing a life into this world.

Answer thesequestion because they are what mature and resposible people think about when the choose to bring a life into this world. If you don't answer then I will know that you have no idea what it really like to bring a life into this world.

How will you pay for this life?

Do you have a job or are you still school?

Who will take care of this life while you at work and or school? What are you going to do when you have been up all night with a crying baby and then you have to go to work and school and come home and take care of the life you brought into this world?

Do you know how much childcare costs?

Food?

Diapers?

Clothes?

Crib?

Stroller?

Doctor appoinments for the mother while she is pregnant and the life which you will have broghut into this world have you the money for that?

Speaking of which do you have a girlfriend? Is she will to get pregant? It so easy for you to say that you want a baby girl. But you are not the one who will be pregnant.



You do realize that gender is not someting to have a choice over. What happens if a boy? Why not love this life over something it cannot control?



I have not called you a moron. So I repeat answer thes question because it what mature and responsible people do before tha bring a life into this world. If you don I will know that you don't raelly know what it like to bring a life into this a worls. Or you are a troll. It up to younto convince people otherwise.

You are in no position to care for yourself, much less another.
