I read this magazine article about this girl who is 11 and got pregnant. Just wondering your point of view whether that is right or wrong... Personally I think that it is wrong and that she should have been more careful.

Absolutely not. An 11 year old should not even know what sex is, but it is 2006 and lets get real, kids are having sex younger and younger. It is sad because they don't even know the consequences of sex. Sex is a beautiful thing but it should be performed by a knowledgeable person who is an adult and is in a loving relationship.

I think it is totally wrong for an 11 year old to have a baby. I think her parents should have had more control over her so that this wouldn't have happened. I have to disagree that she (the 11 yr old) should have been more careful, BECAUSE how much does an 11yr old really know about being careful. I think that whoever got her pregnant should be in big trouble. (If it was another 11 yr old, then BOTH parents should be in trouble for not supervising their kids!)
I am pro choice (don't start sending me hate mail - I am entitled to my opinion) I don't think this little girl should be having this baby. The consequences of this most unfortunate situation is only going to bring MORE bad situations for this girl and her baby.

An eleven year old should not be having sex, (thus not worrying about pregnancy). Odds are that she will have 40-60 years (ages 20-60, 70 or 80) to be an adult and do adult things. There are those 6 years of adolescents to journey through (ages 13-19). The 12 years of childhood should be spent on carefree endeavors whenever possible. Popcycles and bicycles, Valentines and sun-burned cheeks, barefeet and best friends are jos to experience at this age.

I agree with curiositycat, the body is way to young at eleven, or even fifteen to bear a child. Even though all the equipment is operational does not mean that the maturity level is even close to handle the responsibility. The parents should have to face charges of child neglet or endangerment for allowing this to happen.

Definately wrong!!! Are you talking about the girl whose mom was interviewed and said she proud of her daughter?? I read that article. I was speechless when I seen it! 11 is way too young to be having babies. Not only is her body not ready for that, she cant possible know how to care for a baby...not the way an adult can anyway. It takes way more responsibility to care for your own baby than all your younger siblings.

No it's very wrong, she is way too immature and she will regret it for the rest of her life because she'll miss out on her childhood. Kids having kids is never a good idea. I'd like to know where her parents were and how the hell she managed to have sex at 11 let alone get pregnant

I partly agree with you. I don't think an 11 year old should be having a baby, kids should not be having kids. It is hard enough to raise a child when you are financially stable, but how can someone who can't even take care of themselves take care of a baby? I have to say I disagree with your point of she should have been more careful. She shouldn't even be having sex at 11!!!!

There isn't she should have been more careful. She shouldn't be doing it at all. It's illegal. I was 15 when I had my first child and I may be a hypocrit but 11 is way way way too young and the parents of the girl should be put away (and the father of the baby too!)

What the hell kind of question is this? Of course it's not ok for an 11 year old to be having a baby! She's still a baby herself! Her body isn't even fully developed yet! She shouldn't even be having SEX yet. I don't think I had sex-ed in SCHOOL until I was that age! Her parents should be shot.
