A little touchy
I guess I'm a little touchy about the subject, seeing I'm in my mid 30's, and knowing that it is people out there that think I'm too old to be having my first child. Although it appears to be common practice these days to have children at 15, 16, 17...IMHO it's nothing cute about it. I would say it's about 35% of our girls in my high school that have children. The amount of days they miss from school is usually miore days then they come. We are lucky to even keep them long enough for them to graduate. I feel to each her own, but I'll rather see a woman in her 30's or even 40's having their first, then to see children in their early or late teens having their first.
