A 12 year old with a five month old baby?

Consummation at 11? ...or 10??

A 12 year old with a five month old baby?

And a 28 year old stepfather. A grandfather at 28? The article doesn't say, but I'll bet grandma isn't much, if any, over 30.

A friend of mine works in Detroit with pregnant girls aged 12-14. They have had no parental guidance. They often tell Rachel, who is only 24, that they wish they had had a mother like her when they were younger. They had no one at home guiding and disciplining them. They usually have C-section. They are old enough to get pregnant, but their hips are not wide enough yet to let a baby out. The ones who do manage to have natural childbirth often have a terrible time. Rachel tries to convince them that their 46 year old uncle is not in love with them, and stories like that..... At least these girls aren't having abortions. That is the miracle here. Rachel has a very very very high stress job!
