It was not uncommon decades ago for girls in the mid-teems to marry. The life expectancy was in the 50s. Teens had to become mature a lot quicker.

Elvis Presley first met his wife, Priscilla, when she was 14.

You are right on the money. As history will clearly reveal here, dating “super young” girls aged thirteen and over, was accepted in many states of our nation thirty or forty years ago. Marriage and love affairs between young women and older men were accepted as the norm in those days!!!

Shucks...I can remember from young days in the 1950, when the Grandmas would chat under their breath, and say, “My, My, she’s nineteen years old and not married yet,...an “Old Maid” in the making”!!!

Now, the women of today rarely get married before their 30th birthday. Times have changed, and the women bad mouthing Judge, Roy Moore are barking at the MOON!!!

A very good friend of mine was 17 when he got married to his 15 yr old girlfriend. 47 years later they are STILL married.

By the was she was NOT pregnant at the time. They waited 4 yrs before having kids.
