My sister was 16 when she had her 1st baby & nearly 20 years ago, that was terrible!! My Dad was disgusted at the time but that was short lived, things like this happen but life goes on! My sister has been married to the father for 19 years, actually its their wedding anniversary today (1Aug) and they now have 9 children together, and i grand child due in 7 weeks time!!
My sister will be a Grandma at the age of 36, my brother in law a Grandfather, due on his 40th birthday!!
At the end of the day, there are younger kids having babies all around the world, isn't there and 11 or 12 year old in Scotland that hit the front page of the newspapers because she is pregnant?

The law was tested to the full earlier this year when an eight-year-old girl, known only as Rosa, was raped and became pregnant.
Her parents Francisco and Maria decided they wanted an abortion for their daughter. The Church opposed the parents, and while the lawyers argued, they took her to a private clinic for an abortion.

She would never have been able to get to that stage, because she was a child. So we had the pregnancy terminated because she didn't want to die."
The government's attorney general came down on their side, eventually declaring that the abortion was legal because the girl's life was in danger.
However, the Church took a different view. They said the parents and the doctors who carried out the procedure had excommunicated themselves.
The country's bishops also wrote an open letter to the government asking whether there was any real difference between abortion and suicide bombings.
Cardinal Obando y Bravo has been the archbishop of the Nicaraguan capital Managua for more than 30 years. He defended the church's stance, saying: "There is a case, something that happened in El Salvador of a child aged nine, who gave birth without harming the child.
"If this child had the misfortune to be raped by someone, and then became pregnant, it is always possible, according to doctors who are experts in this field, to save both lives."
Public opinion 'confused'
His views are endorsed by one of the Vatican's most senior cardinals.

The youngest mother on record was a five-year-old Peruvian girl. On Mother's Day in 1939, when Lina was just under 5 years and 8 months old, her baby was delivered by cesarean section. It was a healthy 6 pound baby boy, and was named Gerardo after the doctor who originally diagnosed Lina's pregnancy, Dr. Gérado Lozada.

Youngest I've known personally was 23 at the time, but had her child at 14. Youngest I've heard tell of: 12, in the newspaper some time ago.

The youngest mother I've heard of was a 5-year old girl. They raised the little boy she had as her brother and he didn't find out the truth for a couple of years. Also, she was probably raped or they suspected incest but I don't think the truth was ever uncovered because it was many many years ago.

9 - a girl who had early puberty (she was 4 when she developed breasts) in south america.
I can still remember reading about it and being horrified.
Then there is the 12 year old in scotland.
And unfortunately several of the girls I went to school with had children at 13,14 etc.
