The mum-of-one has become a social media personality sharing her experience as a teen mum and giving people a glimpse into her life. 

Her posts include parenting advice, shooting down assumptions about teen mums and content about her home. 

In a recent TikTok video, Meg-Bonnie shared the seven insensitive questions that people always ask her. 

Among these is whether her parents look after her little boy, whether she dropped out of school and if social services are “involved”. 

People also question whether she is a single mum and whether she regrets having her son. 

The teen mum cleared up that the answer to all of these questions is no. 

She has 28k followers on TikTok, with her candid videos totting up a collective 500k likes. 

In one video, Meg-Bonnie shared the parenting things she does that “people have had something to say about”. 

“I don’t shout at him or put him in time out,” she shared. “If I can’t be arsed to cook, we are going out. 

“He’s slept with a pillow since six months. I put him in nursery aged one to go back to college.”

Other teen mums empathise with Meg-Bonnie that everyone assumes they are single mums. 

One mum commented on a video: “People are shocked that [my daughter’s] dad’s involved and works and we have our own place. 

“People think young people can’t be good mums.”

 In 2021 there were 43k teenage conceptions in England and Wales, according to Staistica.
