"Poll question: Would you throw your 16 yr old pregnant daughter a baby shower?"


  

          

My boys daughter is pregnant wit her first child. The smoke has now cleared & he & his wife are geeked to be having a new bundle of joy.

However, she doesn't think it's appropriate to have a shower cuz of her age & according to her, bein 16 and pregnant isn't anything to celebrate. She recommended having a small dinner wit the family and everyone brings pampers, bottles, etc. My boy on the other hand wants to go all out to recognize the birth of his first grand.

I can see where they're both coming from but it is what it is *shrug*

He considers that a compliment but denies the idea of "white supremacy"
Nov 08th 2015

      A compliment? Nigga, its not even worthy of a response
Nov 08th 2015

No one should be depressed and emotionally beat down while they
Nov 08th 2015
124
      Beat down for not throwing a baby shower? Lmao
Nov 08th 2015
126
           Why are you against throwing a baby shower in this case then?
Nov 08th 2015
128
                because i view a shower as a celebration for being pregnant
Nov 09th 2015
145
that's not my position...
Nov 07th 2015
101
for the people who say yes, what if she was 12, or victim of rape?
Nov 07th 2015
81
hopefully if she was 12 or a victim of rape, we would know before
Nov 08th 2015

Not throwing a baby shower has zero impact on that kids future

Nov 07th 2015
100
                most def there is a consequence for getting pregnant at 16
Nov 07th 2015
103
BTW like many things, a baby shower is what you make it
Nov 07th 2015
90
or you could actually physically and emotionally support
Nov 07th 2015

hell yes. New life is a blessing, lets greet it accordingly
Nov 07th 2015
94
NO, and she's not having the child
Nov 07th 2015
95
what are you going to do if you find out she's pregnant in the 6th month...
Nov 08th 2015
110
      Then she wouldn't keep the child....
Nov 08th 2015
