How did you pay for the birth of that baby when you were 17? Did your parent's health insurance cover the cost of the hospital and the prenatal care? I find that many parent's health insurance won't cover the pregnancy. And then the teens are almost forced to use government benefits, like medicaid to pay for the birth and the prenatal care. Just wondering. Now days, prenatal care itself is 3-4 thousand dollars, and the birth at a hospital is or can be over $20,000.
