About the Project
- Don't Hush "DISCUSS"
- This project has just started to train teen parents in Newham to develop their own on line resources and will enable the group to make contacts, provide information for teenage parents in London and even globally. The project is training teen parents to write and publish their stories/diaries/experiences and be journalists with their own blog pages which they can update and add to when ever and where ever they want. If you would like to join the project contact Juliette Mills, office@ech.org.uk, 020 7538 4545/3388 or Angie Jasper at Choice 136 on 0207 511 4314 or just blog us. Workshops take place every Tuesday afternoon at NEWTEC, 22 Deanery Road, Stratford, E15-4LP From: 3pm Р5pm Free Cr̬che provided by Early Start

I was planning to have 4 children 2 pairs of twins 2 girls and 2 boys name princess-trinity and princess-destiny and king-lemaar and king-toshion but when the time comes im gonna have a good job so i can have maid or a good husband because im retiring from the following list:

Kl peeps to all raeders i'm sparko an i'm 14, in ma opinion i feel dat we are to fast to be moving into the sexual nature wid our partners because we are not thinking. No offence but if feel we must do this later in life at an more appropriate time.My plan is to stabilize my future with a enjoyable good paying job as lawyer and proffesional break dancer(you can't have all work and no play).Yes, so i have a hard plan to stick for future refrence and a nice guide for which i will follow, to not end up in such a position.That is my for tay on that argument. yeah done kl rememba me always bye , reply.

I work for a television company called Mentorn Media. We’re making a series about underage teenage pregnancy and I'm really keen to hear your story.
The programme will follow young mum’s-to-be through pregnancy and birth on television and online. Positive and fun it’s not about making judgment – it’s about telling the real stories of teenagers who are pregnant and hearing about your experiences in your words. We want to prove it’s not all Vicky Pollard!
We’d really like to hear from you to see if you could give us any help and advice. We are looking for a mix of teenage mums-to-be from a variety of different backgrounds. If you think you may be able to help please drop me an email on cwilby@mentorn.tv.
Thank you in advance for your time, Christina

My wife comitted suicide 10 months ago. I am still very depressed and have a girl friend who polka dances all oover the country and travels overseas quite often. I
love her but most of my days are spent waiting for her to return. This makes me more depressed and I wonder if I should get out of this relationship. My wife and I were married 45 years and my current situation is hard to take because we will never be 24/7. Neal
