Ah, but how would child protective services react to a 14 year old today who was married to a man in his late 30s or 40s who said the baby was not her husband’s and was conceived while she was a virgin?

Just something to ponder.

“Just something to ponder.”

well..I guess I don’t ponder it, because we know the birth of the savior was a one-time event, so it is safe to assume that today’s pregnant 14 yr. olds are not virginal conceptions.

Today, a 14 yr. old needs parental permission to get married.
Other than that - a pregnant 14 yr. old is a minor.
Stats have shown most who get pregnant at this age are either being sexually abused in the home, or are impregnated by older adult men - statutory rapists.

I guess the point I’m trying to make here, is that while there’s alot of scorn being thrown at this girl...I’m left wondering who is taking advantage of her, and what an awful family life she must have been living up to this point.

In this country she probably would have been removed from this home.
