It really does depend on the person and what situation they're in at the time. Do they truely love the person whom they're having a child with, are they financially ready, and mature enough to handle such a responsibility. It's seems that kids are getting pregnent very early these days, and being forced into parenthood can really mess you up.. if you're not ready. It takes away all the liberties you once had, and now your full attention is spent raising a child. But on the flip side, if you're ready, it can be one of the most rewarding things in life. My friend, who is only 21, just recently found out his girlfriend was pregnent, and he was the last person that I would expect to be able to handle a child. But, it really changed him... the child isn't even born yet, and I've already noticed a chance in his personallity. He's actually excited about the baby, he really wants to be a good father and husband. He's really looking forward to raising that child, and he's fully aware that it won't be a walk in the park.. I guess to answer your question, I don't believe that it reveals and secrets of life or nature. It does however enlighten you to an extent. You may discover more about yourself in raising a child, and sharing the experience with someone you really love. ... but, again, if you're not ready..... yeah, it'll be hell if you're a person who cannot handle stress or responsibility of a child.
