Two kids at 22?

[laurenann]

Hello,
I am 22 with a 2.5year old and am 8 weeks pregnant with my second. I look very young for my age so tend to get a lot of judgemental looks and strangely people seem to assume my partner and I don't work and are on benefits 🤷‍♀️ personally I see no problem with people who live on benefits while looking after their young children but it seems to be a negative stereotype. In reality I am lucky enough to stay at home while my partner earns enough for us to live comfortably.
Just wondering if you think 22 with 2 kids is very young? Would you be judgemental? Be completely honest, I won't be offended or take it to heart- just curious 😁

Honestly - I just don't understand why anyone would want kids that young. You have barely begun adulthood at that point. I don't think it's ideal - I think it is better to have established a career first. I don't know anyone who had a child that young - the youngest of my close friends was 30.

But everyone's different - just because I don't understand it doesn't mean anything for your decisions
