Helping to show teen girls the difficulties that come with having a baby, Bristol Palin was in the house for “The Harsh Truth: Teen Moms Tell All” in New York City last night (May 5).
The 19-year-old single mother looked lovely as she posed at Lighthouse International Conference Center for the Candie’s Foundation event, sporting a cute black dress with black strappy heels.
And while she’s the daughter of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, Bristol wants to make sure people know that she’s not living some pampered life.
"[My parents] are there for support when I need it emotionally, but I'm on my own financially. I work an 8-to-5 job, five days a week. My parents help out, but they're not at my disposal. I think that's a huge misconception."
"I'm doing it by myself. I live by myself, I'm working to provide for [my son]. It is difficult. Financially, it's very difficult. I'd say the majority of any paycheck I ever receive is going to Tripp. Child care is very expensive, formula is expensive, diapers are expensive – and you don't think about that as a kid, at all."
