Being a mother is hard , but I would say being a young mother is even harder. You have to be able to jungle sleep, school and social, a baby and some even a relationship. Money is always tight, and you can very rarely do anything for fun, you loose friends and family could turn their back on you. You would be stressed, lonely and depressed at times and you will struggle with different challenges in your life but at the end of each day it will be worth it.
If you are not pregnant keep it that way because anything I said above , plus some could happen to you. If you are pregnant you can't only look at bad things , it will only make it harder for you. Look at the good things, you make new lifelong friends, finds people who support you and believe in you. Accomplished goal you would have never strived for it , if not pregnant. Find out whom your true friends are. Importantly, you would have a beautiful bouncing baby right by your side ,every step of your way. (Junior )

Should girls who get pregnant be allowed to returned to school ?

Absolutely not. In fact, I'd say that allowing pregnant teenagers to drop out of school sends the wrong message. When you became a parent did you expect to spend the rest of your life sitting around doing nothing? Of course not. Allowing them to continue going to school shows them that even when you have a child you a still have responsibilities which is definitely a good thing because they are going to have more responsibilities than most kids their age o certain the baby is born! Also they still need to continue in education because they will need to be able to work to support their child just like everybody else does. Having children should not mean you have to be stuck in a dead end job at the local corner shop because you dont have the education to do something better.

A Difficult Journey
When you are a teenage mother , people will judge you. You will be expected to act sad for the life within you and act as if pregnancy and Parenthood are death sentence
You will see happily married expectant couples and envy them , wishing that you could have someone to share the joy of a new life. Thankfully, I have my mom, but that is different than having a spouse or significant other to share the happiness.
Teen mom's ,I am proof that you can! You can beat the statistics. You do not have to marry the father of your child
