People always want hear me talk about what it’s like being a young father, and lucky for them I have a story to tell.

You’re losing more and more sleep because not only do you still have school, you have work and your baby to take care of. You’re probably battling with thoughts such as, “Will I be a good mother/father?” or, “Am I going to be like those messed up parents I see on television?” You probably never even wanted this to happen; maybe you wanted to have kids but certainly not at your age.

You are a fly in a cup of coffee. You are a strand of hair in someone’s pasta. Look at the lives you’ve ruined just by existing.

Assuming all young parents are like Teem Mom is like assuming that all 40+ women are about that Real Housewife life.

Kids affect your life because they need attention. That does not mean that you bring your baby to every social activity as a compromise. No matter how ‘clever’ your baby seems, he or she does not understand what is happening during Men in Black III.
