Does anyone else think it is crazy for a 16 year old to give birth to her second set of triplets?

Question

her first single birth at 14, second triple birth at 15 and now triplets again? and her mother supports them??? maybe she should have been strapped into a chastity belt after the 1st and the key thrown away...http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7258072.stm

Answer 1

Well Im sure it was a planned pregency and her husband has a fine job so that he might provide for his family.

....

....

I cant keep a straight enough face. its just sad.

i am laughing about it though.

Answer 2

i think that thing happen for a reason. maybe now the country will not say a 16 yr old is too young to be on contraceptive. other than that i do believe she is too young cause her teenage life is done.

Answer 3

The mother needs to jerk a knot in her daughters tail. Or perhaps a knot in something else.

Answer 4

wow has she ever heard of contraception?

i really cant believe that and the fact that her mother didnt do anything about it like make her go on the pill or somthing?

Answer 5

Yes, that's very crazy sure am glad I'm not in her shoes for I feel that life for her will be a good one.

Answer 6

woah thats... thats... i cant find any words for it...but i know for sure its really shocking

Answer 7

I do think the girl needs education rather than criticism.  Instead of just building her a house after her first set of triplets, perhaps the government social workers should have sent her for counselling & classes.  Perhaps, if she was busy studying & taking care of her babies, she wouldn't have the inclination or the time to fool around.

Answer 8

Yes it is crazy, that poor girls body and mentality hasn't even developed properly....

Did she not hear about contraceptives, unbelievable!!

Answer 9

That's crazy. I mean, it's her choice, but still crazy. Let's hope they don't seek for $$$$ from the government.

Answer 10

I find this horrendous - the girl should have been either at school or at work not having babies willy nilly - as to having a house built etc this is just madness.  She should be ashamed of herself and where are the father(s) of these babies.

Answer 11

Wow. I haven't heard of anyone that young having so many babies that soon. The youngest person I ever heard of was a young woman who had six children by the age of 19.

Answer 12

It's not like it's uncommon in Argentina.

Answer 13

WOW!! i feel sorry for this girl .. that is very very insane!! 7 kids and only 16 .. YIKES! most people think its hard having 1 .. but 7 .. holy !!!

Answer 14

that is crazy. poor girl, too young for all this i would think.

Answer 15

I hardly believe it, although it is possible.

I think this is untrue, completely.

Answer 16

All I could think when reading this was dear god!

Where is the grandmother's advice for her daughter on avoiding pregnancy?

And how do others feel that their country has bought land and built a house for this family?

This is just ridiculous - when does the child and her family become responsible for themselves? As the mother of twins living in a stable relationship and in my own home...I can't even begin to imagine what this silly girl is thinking. It is hard enough to raise children with a loving partner, let alone producing 7 children by the age of 17! It makes me wonder whether her family look upon this as a meal ticket - after all they got a free house and land - who knows what they will get next!!!

Edit - Barbie V - it was the "willy nilly" that got her into this trouble (grin)

Answer 17

Thats insane!Even by hillbilly standards...

Answer 18

that can't be healthy.
