I was a teen mum – people think my son’s my brother because I look so young… that’s what falling pregnant at 16 gets you

A MUM who had her son at 16 is constantly having to correct people who think he’s her younger brother.

Sarah took to Instagram to share a Reel of herself and her little boy, as she wrote over the top: “Me correcting everyone who calls him my brother.”

The fact that Sarah looks so young doesn’t really help either, as she added: “Meanwhile I look 13 and he looks nothing like me.”

She wrote in the caption: “What getting pregnant at 16 gets you.”

And people in the comments section reassured Sarah that she wasn’t the only one who had that assumption made about them.

“Lol cause my mom had my baby brother when I was 16 and I had to constantly correct people that I wasn’t his mom.” one wrote.

“I hate it when ppl ask me how old i am,” another added.

“I look like their daughter and i have a kid i be like first of all how old are you second of all im not your daughter nor ur problem.”

“I had my son at 17,” a third wrote.

“They called him my brother for years. He’s 48 now. Lol.”

But others weren’t impressed by her teen pregnancy story.

“You can barely take care of yourself what makes you think you’re able to take care of another human being sit here and say anything you want we’ve all been through life,” one wrote.

“You haven’t.”

“Why are we glorifying teenage moms? This is stupid,” another added.

A third commented: “You can barely take care of yourself at this age and you have to carry the burden of a child.”

However, someone else hit back, writing: “If imma be honest this kid looks much happier than a lot of kids I know with parents who had them at age 30 do.”
