No, I just see the results of teen pregnancy. I have a sister-in-law who was 15 when she got pregnant. She married the dad. She has been married 3 times, and has 6 kids. She’s been on welfare. Her oldest child has been in and out of jail (I don’t know his status currently). One of her daughters has many children out of wedlock and is in her early 20s.

Teen pregnancy should not be embraced and celebrated. It is a very difficult situation.

Now, do I think we all make mistakes. Yes. I’ve made and make a lot of them. However, they are mistakes. Do we still love and support anyone who makes a mistake? Of course.

Sounds to me like your sister in law came from a dysfunctional family. She raised her own children that way, too. Not critisizing. Just making an observation.
