Raising children is hard, and any parent who says differently is lying.

Parenting is emotionally and

intellectually draining, and it often requires professional sacrifice and serious financial hardship. Kids are
needy and demanding from the moment of their birth.Raising children involves supporting their overall
development and preparing them for life. A good upbringing molds a child into a good human being.

The truth is that parenthood is both wonderful and awful at the same time. What makes it wonderful
are all the things people tell you. What makes it awful, however, isn't quite as intuitively clear. Certainly
the obvious things like tantrums, stubbornness, and lifestyle changes are difficult. But they aren't what
I've found the most challenging.

So I interviewed two kinds of parents (one adolescent and one adult)and relate their experience in
raising children and in making a living to raise a family.

The Adult

According to her, "raising a lots of children which is she gave birth to 9 children's is very hard,since the
supplies of food and money they will use everyday is hard to find because they don't have a job because
they are only an elementary graduate.I think the hardest thing is how much it costs to have children.
The cost of living is so high that it’s very hard to manage if only one parent works. I have nine children,
my husband in the farm and I do about 24/7 chores and responsibilities at home. It’s hard work that I
have to squeeze in around full-time parenting, but it’s financially impossible for me to stop. It’s also not
worth me getting a job out of the house, because that would put a stop to the small number of tax
credits we get and I’d pay through the nose on childcare. I. I bet it makes the decision to have children
even harder for those young couples who are considering it. As parents, we want them to have happy
productive lives and we see their potential more than anyone. All we want is for them to do their best at
every moment so they do not miss out"

In my opinion, she's in a hard situation and really need an immediate action to help her control and
maintain their growing family.I think she really need to use contraception to control her birth,both of
her partners will benefit on this. The best suggestions that she'll use was using the birth control pill,The
birth control is a safe, simple, and convenient way to prevent pregnancy. It also has other benefits like
reducing acne, making your periods lighter and more regular, and easing menstrual cramps.

And contraception reduces poverty in this sector because adults who either choose not to have children
or delay the rate at which they have children have more time and resources to earn better-living
potentials when compared to those who must use their income to provide for their families.

The Adolescence

According to her,"as a teen parent it's more harder raising a child because she don't have a job and she's
a single parent.She only get financial support on her parents and hard time to buy the child
necessities.She said that she regretted doing sexual things with his partner that caused her to stop going
to school because of getting pregnant.And she had hard time getting the trust and forgiveness of her
parents.And the only thing she can do now is accept her fate and start a new life together with her
child."

A teen could not handle the financial pressure to provide for a child.I believe that no teen is ready for
pregnancy, so they should make an effort to save their golden teenage years. Teenagers cannot even
take complete care of themselves. Therefore, they are not at all prepared to raise a child while they
themselves are still children. Teenage parents cannot live the life of typical teenagers. They no can
longer go out with their friends whenever they feel like it. Caring for a baby takes 24 hours a day, seven
days a week and that means teen parents have to be completely dedicated to their child. It is another
life in the hands of two struggling teens.

Two teenagers raising a child is hard enough, but imagine if the father of the child isn’t there at all. It is
far more common that the mother will struggle with raising the child on her own. According to the
Southwest Community Health Center, “only one out of every five teen mothers receives any support
from the child’s father and about 80 percent end up on welfare.” Pregnancy can be prevented and you
all know how, you just need to do it. There are plenty of options, such as abstinence, condoms and oral
contraceptives. There is always the chance of contraceptives failing, but that chance is slimmer than not
using any protection at all. The only sure way to avoid pregnancy is abstinence. That is why you need to
really think about your future and consider whether it’s worth it.Dealing with pregnancy is not easy for
the teens or their parents. Parents have a hard time accepting that their teen is pregnant.
