“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.

I am not arguing against morality — I think a 16 year old married woman who gets pregnant by her husband is moral while a 35 year old carrier woman who gets pregnant accidentelly by her boyfriend is not living a moral life.

I agree. It sounds like her mother is using the girl to breed children to bring in welfare money. Absolutely hideous.

There are MANY men in this country — ages 18 to 24 — serving serious time in prison for having a girlfriend age 16 or 17 — and her parents caught them together, and notified the authorities, instead of dealing with their rebellious, promiscuious teenager. The guys are doing hard time next to serial rapists and murderers, and their entire lives are ruined because once they get out, their picture is on Megans list forever.

Laws need serious reform. And this little girl in another country is pumping out babies by somebody who is keeping a low profile for SOME reason, obviously. Sad...
