Yes Don is right.

And can hormones be that wrong. Some people do want to have a baby in their teens and make great parents.

I had a baby at 19, her father aged 21 could not cope and became violent so I left him. I did not wish to risk turning him in to the authorities and he was not forth coming with maintenence payments. Not because he could not pay just because he did not want to give me money.
I lived in poverty with my daughter but consider that the time and love I was able to give her vastly outweighed anything money could buy. She is now in her third year at University studying Psychology.

I now own my own home, have a fantastic husband, and 3 more kids all of whom I stayed with for the first 5 years of their lives.

At 41 I would not want to be looing after small kids, where as at 21 I loved it!

Women can chose to have kids or not have kids, to have a husband or not, to have a job or not, these are right that have been fought for and should be given the up most respect, God knows they have put up with a load of shit over the years. Being lock up in the looney bin for getting pregnant out of wedlock. Seeing their kids die poverty because the father would not acknowledge them. Being slaves to horrible husbands who they had to marry because they had become pregnant.

These girls need all the support they can get not slaggin off.
