not true at all...

i have had several classmates who had children at 14-16. (i live in richmond, what can i say?) ALL of them have gone to college, gotten married, and had a career. now, some states have programs that allow these mothers to take their kids to high school with them, and ours was a test school for that program. maybe thats why they succeeded, and maybe the lack of that program is why a lot of girls dont have the chance to succeed, but by no means is a baby at 15 a definate college/career killer...
