18 Years Old, 2 Children & A Boyfriend In Prison | LOVE DON'T JUDGE
LINDSEY is a teen mum, she had her first child at just 15 and a year later fell pregnant with her second, aged 16. She supports herself and her kids working as a carer having recently graduated from high school. Lindsey got together with her boyfriend Clyston when she was 16. They've now been together (on and off) for 2 years and have a one year old son - Clyston took on her elder child as his own. 4 months into the relationship Lindsey found out she was pregnant, they had been trying for a baby and were happy at first but when Lindsey was in the early stages of her pregnancy she ended the relationship, she said that Clyston wasn't acting right and soon after he got sent to jail. During this time the couple managed to rekindle their relationship whilst Clyston was in a jail cell. He told Lindsey he had learnt from his mistakes and wanted to be there for her and the baby. After 4 weeks inside Clyston was released hoping to be sent to rehab to overcome his demons but as he had outstanding warrants he was arrested again and sent back to jail. Lindsey was 3 months pregnant at this time. Lindsey says she has bought Clyston clothes, never missed a call, or a court date, she has always written to him and been there for him throughout his time in jail and now prison, all whilst caring for two young children and holding down a job at only age 18. Although Lindsey has faced judgement and criticism she wants to tell her story and represent the often ignored prison wife community.
