OMG! Anon, tell us the truth. Do you know anything at all about this young lady, her boyfriend, Mike, the family or even Spring Creek Lodge? Or are you just talking out your ass?  

ilovemike, if I were you, I wouldn't even dignify these idiotic comments w/ a response other than to say "mind your own damned business."

My view is that if there is no evidence for it, then forget about it. An agnostic is somebody who doesn't believe in something until there is evidence for it, so I'm agnostic.

Thanks Antigen....

I just wanted to take a moment to thank our anon program zealots for their participation. I know ya'll think you're winning this argument cause all your brainwashed buddies tell you so. But to a normal person reading this dialog? What it looks like is a bunch of really horrible old farts beating up on a young soon to be mother. It's shameful. But it is a fairly accurate representation of program mentality and the (evil) spirit that drives it. And it has been one of the primary objectives of these forums from the biginning to illustrate just that. So thanks, ya'll, for doing your part.

I sincerely hope that, one day, ya'll find enough peace in your own lives that you won't feel compelled to go around abusing young people like this. But I don't hold out much hope. So, failing that, I just hope your victims are able to put some distance between themselves and you, to find surrogates to give them the kind of familial support we all crave and need and to live long, happy prosperous lives in spite of you.

Shes 16, been with this guy 3 months. His parents sent him off. Im a taxpayer and this is the kind of crap that pisses me off. Two kids that probably had it shitty at home. I think I'll have a baby that loves me because my parents dont etc. Taxpayers are going to be picking up the tab for these dumbasses for a long time. Ill bet iluvmikes mom was 16 when she had her. History repeats itself.

You arrogant piece of shit.
You can't predict this child's life and you have no business judging this young mom.

If you so deeply resent the financial assistance that the government doles out to help young families get on their feet and not starve, maybe you ought to be living in China.

You are Way out of line making direr predictions of doom for this girl's baby!

This baby has every chance of living a happy healthy and productive life, thanks to the fact that in this country, there is help for young mothers.

 The taxes this baby pays, may well be what supports the likes of you, when your old and broken down and in need of help from uncle Sam to avoid living off pass dated cat food.

I personally know of a young lady - born to my child hood friend when she was 16 years old. This mom was a real doozy, and this child had no idea who her father was until recently. The mom (my friend) has always had a drug and alcohol problem. She has always been attracted to wild and crazy guys - and she herself has lived a wild and crazy sort of life.
Odds were against her daughter.
This young woman (the daughter, the "doomed" baby) is now about to graduate from grad school with a doctorate in child psychology. She has more or less Mothered her mom since she was a little girl. She is beautiful and intelligent and down right amazing. No one would have predicted it.

Her mom was given all the same advice you so freely dole out - get rid of it! I tell you - her life would have been a very sad and sorry affair with out her daughter. Thank God in Heaven she ignored the harping advice she got from ass holes like you.

Wow! Anon, do you have any idea in the world what it takes to get that kind of language out of BuzzKill? That is quite the accomplishment!  :nworthy:

Yes... get rid of 'IT'.
That's what it's all about.
Abortion.
Adoption.
BM Warehouses.
Psych drugs.
Just make the problem go away.
Realtiy is just too hard to look at.

And they say the kids are in denial.

Anon, I suggest you visualize YOUR tax dollars, school taxes, not to mention increased insurance premiums, going to fund the teen warehouse industry. Might this be seen as 'welfare' going to parents who actually have the means to pay others to 'care' for their children?
Personally, I'd rather mine go to a parent who loves their child and wants to parent.

Good job for not allowing these people to get you down. Don't listen to a word they say because they are evil. They are even likely people posting from the program, maybe WWASPies.

If you believe you can make things work for yourself and your baby then by all means do your very best. This is YOUR baby, don't let anyone try to convince you to do anything you don't want to do. Just because you are 16 does not mean you cannot be a good mother. You can.

There are programs to help young mothers and their babies, take advantage of them. In our community they have "The Pregnancy Resource Center," a place pregnant moms can go get free ulta sounds, clothing for the baby, and so on. Have you checked around in your area for a support network? It's important.

Hopefully Mike will not be brainwashed while he's in SCL and hopefully he will be able to contact you when he gets out. Just do your best with what you have and things have a way of working out.

I agree with whoever said that you should try to talk to other adults in Mike's life - relatives, counselors, whoever will listen. Pass on information that we have shared here with them and see if they would be willing to help you. If you cannot get Mike out, at least he will have a support network when he gets out.

Good luck to you, to Mike, and to your little baby. Please come back and let us know how things are going once the baby is born.

And remember - don't listen to these assholes. Don't even bother to give them the pleasure of a response to their comments - except to say - it's none of your business! As Ginger said.
