    Why don't you go to counseling, alone. Go over all the issues involved in being a responsible adult, in addition to being a mother and lover.

    We are not planning on having kids, counseling is bad because my parents have to know where I am 24/7

    Start by telling us. Tell us how you're getting married, where you'll live, how you'll make money, pay the bills, save for college, kids, house... tell us.

    Im getting married hopefully on destin beach. I live in Florida, we are looking for apartments if we can find one his father is offering a room in his house (for rent), I work 2 jobs now && he works one. Are parents started saying are money when we where little for colloge and we put money in the account every pay check. We are not planning on kids until after college. Oh yeah his father knows but his mother doesn't. My parents haven't meet him face to face yet, he is meeting my father in July. My mom talks to him sometimes but doesn't trust him (because he is young). I want to go to college to be a nurse in the birth field. He on the other hand doesn't know what he wants yet.

    My niece is in a similar situation. She began talking with her pastor. Her mom has no problem with her spending time at church. With his help, she is getting a solid footing on what she needs to do, to live the life she wants.

    You are only 16 when do you plan on doing all the moving in with his parents and getting married? Most states you can not leave your parents home until you are 18 without your parents consent.
