You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

Thanks :)I gave up listening to my father when I was 11 and he told me if I ever got pregnant when I wasn't married, he'd kick me out.

HmmNot a nice thing to say to an 11-year-old, granted.
However, I would have thought that the issue should be less about getting pregnant "while not married", and more about getting pregnant while still a child and living with your own parents.
Having a baby should be a positive decision - made by people who are in a position in their lives to be able to afford to bring up a child. And that's not a position in which people still living with their parents are in.
Perhaps your father just expressed it wrong. Or perhaps he really genuinely does think that things like marriage matter, and he's just a twat. Sorry :)
