I think it is unfair to judge any situation by sterotyping. My grandparents were 16 and 18 when they were married and they are going strong 55 years later. I also personally know what it is like I am 19 and my husband is 17, we also have a child together who is one. Neither of us feal as if we are missing out on childhood and are child will never have to miss out on us either, we have the stamina and energy older parents do not have to be with our son. We do not struggle with the decition we made at all in fact we would never change it if we could. In this case age is only a number and people getting divorced are all ages not just young people. Both of us have finished school and take care of our lifes nothing was missed. We only have more while kids our age have no direction in life we know what we are doing and where we are going.And never once was our son unwanted so I think its unfair to say that people our age dont take care of their children properly.It all comes down to the people.

One of my really good friends became a mom while we were still in high school. She didn't marry and the guy has nothing to do with her now but I think she kind of regrets it because her mom has made her take full responsibility for her actions. She is 21 now and she has a 5 year old. If we want to go out and do something it's not very often that she can even talk her mom into sitting for her. She usually has to hire a sitter and take Ashley over to their house.

No way! Besides being illegal, kids of teenagers are usually unwanted and will grow up with this undertone despite whatever efforts the parent (s) may make. There are many other reasons why teenage marriage and teenagers having kids is a big NO! NO! NO!

I agree. Both my older and younger brothers had started families at really young ages. Now that they are older, they always tell me how they never really got to experience much in life that comes with being a teenager. They do love their families, but at the same time regret not waiting a little bit longer.

Yes definitely they are missing the childhood if they are married & have children.
The point is to figure out the mental & physical growth of the child. As long as the growth is proportionate its fine but it happens rarely. We can always guide them in terms of showing the factual path and give un-biased opinion but the choice need to be theirs.

Absolutely! I got pregnant my senior year of high school and married shortly after the baby was born. I did miss alot. I wouldn't recommend that path. It is very challenging and extremely difficult. My situation was not planned but I made the best of it. I have a good life now, but it was a constant struggle for a long, long time.

Most of those marriages probably end in divorce within a year or two as well...

I agree. I think what may seem right at that moment may not be where you want to be 2 years down the road. You are sacrificing a lot of your life and may resent it in the long run. I know I would of.

I think marriage and children shouldn't happen until after you reach 20 at the earliest. If you don't finish your eductation, you cannot adequately support your spouse and your children. Your marriage suffers, you live in poverty your health suffers and your children suffer. I do not think anyone should be allowed to marry until 18 at the earliest.

They shouldn't do it...
I nearly did when I was 17-18 and 6yrs on I still don't regret not going ahead with it. My life could potentially been ruined.
He wasn't right and it was right, too much too young.
I've learnt a lot from what I didn't do and I now know what I want out of life.
Kids need guidance right up to being 20yrs old, I reckon.
