    That is disgusting and an outrage. How dare she try and judge you like that? And anyway, you are 21, you have been old enough in the eyes of the law for 6 years. How DARE she. God I am fuming. Yes, call and complain, I would. The f*cking cheek of it!

    • yeah all of us in the room just looked at eachother, we couldnt believe what he was saying. my moms said told him that she had a kid at 21 and he said "yeah well i bet you can vouch that it ruined your life" she was like "uh no it was the best thing to ever happen to me" and he told her that it was rare to think that. i thought he was a good nurse until that happened.

    • I agree. It's none of her business what you do with your life. She has no right/room to tell you what to do with your life and your family. I would get her name and information and talk to her boss.

    • This is an excellent answer, and Jlynn, if you haven't already called, make sure to tell them about what he said to your mother as well. That is a horrible, despicable thing to say.

    • yeah thats horrible. im 21 with a 2 year old, and it would have been hard for me to contain myself after hearing that. The best way to get her back is to try and get hr fired! What kind of nurse is she?

    • Steeupid nurse...
      I've seen people that go to high school, and some at middle school, that are carrying around strollers with babies in them. I mean What the F***? I've recently been in Sex Ed, and the moment you the egg starts their way down the Fallopian Tube, you're ready to have a baby.

      Although for the next part (the other side)... maybe, just maybe she was talking to you about the pain of having a baby. Not being ready as in not ready for the hard nights and long days...

      Just maybe... +2

    • There is a girl who lives in my neighborhood who gave birth at 11 years old.(true, I swear) Now, I could see someone telling her she might consider adoption, she is too young.(I can't see them bieng so snide and horrible about it still) However, at 21 you are well old enough to be a mom. If you wanted to hear about adoption options, you'd have asked for them! Doesn't anyone have bedside manner or courtesy anymore?

    • I truly hope you took down the name of the person that told you that. She is a professional and is responsible for everything that comes out of her mouth. What she told you could have and has already had serious mental effects on you. She gave you horrible advise as a treating professional. She and the hospital she works for can be held liable for any harm or mental issues that you suffer as a result of her "advice". You need to go straight to the hospital chief of staff and discuss this with him or her. This is no joke! She is playing God and there is no telling how many other people she has done this to. I would not doubt that if you were 16 then she would tell you to abort. I'll bet she has done that as well. You need to step up and stop her, you may save a childs life

    • drkblader27 it does not matter what age you are, a person can not be prepared to have a baby, it is just one thing you have to learn while doing. on the other hand, it's unnacceptable for teens to have babys because there is a certain amount of maturity and common sense that is needed to raise a baby, and sometimes even 30 year old are not ready for that.

    • True, true. But you must admit, there are mature teenagers. There must be at least one or two people who understand the dangers/risks and rewards of having a baby when you're only a teenager. Although it is their decision, there must be some pair out there that understand these things. You can't just go out and say, "They're teenagers, they're stupid, they can't have babies." That's like... ageist... lol
