I can believe it. Kids are doing everything younger these days. I don't agree with it, but I can believe it.

I had to ask my husband if everything worked at that young.  I'm not sure I'm ever going to let my kids leave the house....

Geez, there's lots of young teens having children here...our welfare system seems to entice them to.

It's so sad for the girls especially.  I'm sure it's sad for the boys too but I feel sorrier for the girls.

Its so sad, babies having babies.......and more often the not, no future either.

Actually, long ago, kids were married off and had kids at those ages. There were kings and queens also at that age. Nothing new except that the times and people's perceptions have changed over the years.
