Day in the life of a teenage dad

Seeing a young man take responsibility for his child was actually more real than we expected.

It's not often that we find teenagers airing their lives as teenage parents. 

Most of the time, they are either shunned by society or embarrassed to share their unlikely entry into parenthood. 

A young man who became a teenage father this year decided that he would share his journey on TikTok

In a video with over 350,000 views, this young man shares what he does when his baby comes to his house. 

It was a basic outline, but it intrigued many people. Check out the video below, courtesy of TikTok

This prompted him to share more about his story and he decided to do a three-part story time about how he became a teen father. 

Apart from all the inconspicuousness, this young man reminded us that sometimes facing your fears comes in different forms. 

The fact that he took responsibility for his actions and commended his teenage girlfriend, the mother of his baby, says a lot about his character.
