I had always been the good girl in my family, the one who followed the rules and upheld the values of our conservative community. I was raised to believe that *** before marriage was a sin, and that having a child out of wedlock would bring shame upon my family. But I fell in love with someone who I never expected to, and before I knew it, I was pregnant. I was terrified of what my family would think, of the disappointment and anger they would feel towards me. I didn't know how to tell them, so I kept it a secret as long as I could. When I finally mustered up the courage to tell my family, their reaction was everything I feared. My father couldn't even look at me, my mother wept and my siblings were disappointed. They were hurt and ashamed, and it broke my heart. I was disowned by my family and had to move out of my home. I felt alone and abandoned. I had to raise my child on my own, with no support from the people I loved most. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do. But, as I held my newborn in my arms, I knew that I couldn't regret my decision to have this child. Despite the turmoil it caused within my family, my love for my child was stronger than any disapproval or judgment from others. I knew that I needed to learn to be strong for myself and my child, and I did. It was hard but I managed to make a new life for us and I am proud of it. Even though my family never accepted me and my child, I never stopped loving them, and I hope one day they can forgive me and understand my decision.
