Matilda and Quinton are in high school and know that they really want to be parents one day. Matilda loves kids and works in a preschool after school. Quinton has a job as well, does not think he wants to go to college, and plans get a full-time job after graduation. They think they could probably handle a child now. What is the BEST advice to give Matilda and Quinton?

A.
If they feel ready to have a baby and like children, it will likely be fine.

B.
They have no idea what it takes to raise a child, and they will ruin their lives.

C.
Thinking that they want to have children does not mean they will be good parents.

D.
There are many benefits—for them and the child—if they wait until they are older.

D). There a many benefits—for them and the child—if they wait until they are older.

Explanation; With Quinton planing on not going to college, and getting a full time job right out of Highschool, that would leave Matilda the main caregiver. But Matilda wants to go to college for a higher education. It would be difficult for either of them to balance having a child on their schedules.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If they wait till they are older to have kids, the become more mature and wiser. With Quinton not going to college, Matilda would be the more responsible parent. Assuming she went to college.
