hi there! when I was 18, I found out I was pregnant. my bf and I were so excited! 5 months later, we got married. now, I'm 20, our lives are absolutely perfect, we have a healthy 11 month old son, and I'm 15 weeks pregnant. honestly, we could not be happier! we are so happy, but can't keep the haters away. we are VERY responsible for our age, honestly. random people, family, and friends all look at us like we are crazy. why can't people just be happy for us? any advice to shake the haters and ignore the comments?

You can't let other people's opinions affect your happiness.

When it comes to parenting, everyone is going to be judgy about something. People are judgy because your young; other people would be judgy if you'd waited til you were in your 30's or over. People are judgy because you're having them close together; other people would be judgy if you'd waited 5 years. It doesn't really matter. You can't please everybody, and it's not your responsibility to please them.

Just ignore them and handle yourselves like adults. If you're a happy, well-adjusted family, it shows. Even if they don't agree with your choices, they can't argue with that.
