Is it dangerous to have a child at 15? im really scared, i dont have anywhere to stay right now and i need a job. can i find a job while being a minor and pregnant?

Depends on what country you are from? I would ask planned parenthood or school counselor or a youth emergency shelter if you live in America or other western first world country. Hopefully your not from a strict religious community. You can get a job as a busser, at a restaurant, without a high school diploma.

Hi and welcome to Fluther. Do your parents know? Is there an adult you can talk to that can help you? Maybe a grandparent, aunt, a friend’s parent?

hey thanks for answering guys, my parents kicked me out and i live in turkey. sorry i don’t know how to reply to comments i’m new.

^^^ That is exactly how to reply to comments. Just add a post. There isn’t a separate thread for replies.

@ot7 – My guess is that most of us don’t know enough about Turkish law or social services to give you any good advice. But a couple of thoughts :

Is it dangerous to have a child at 15? It can be, if the baby develops problems in the womb during pregnancy or if the mother has health issues that make normal delivery difficult. The good news is that if you can give birth in a clinic with support from a doctor or nurse its usually very safe.

Where can you get a job or find a place to live? This is probably not a question most of us can answer because we don’t know enough about where you live or your other circumstances. You may be able to get some health referrals from the Red Crescent or UNICEF offices in your area.

Good luck.

At age 15 a woman’s hormones are still straightening themselves out, and her body is still growing, That’s why you need good prenatal care and good food.

There is significantly more risk at your age. I hope you seek the services you need to continue from here. Both medical services and social services and that you have the necessary support from parants or other mature adults. God Bless.
