Newsarticle. 3 sisters pregants at 12,14,16

Well today in the Sunday Mercury the front page story how 3 sisters got pregnant and had their babies while living with their mother. Wonder what the world is coming too. The sisters were pregnant at 12, 14 and 16 are now;
14 years old with a 15 month old son.
15 years old with a 5 months old daughter
18 years old with a 6 month old daughter

Its a sad sad world we live in. Non of the family work and receive the paper says £600 a week in benefits equal to £31,000 a year they do not pay rent and live in a 3 bed semi council house and hope to get a bigger house.

Non them see the fathers of their children bar the 18 year old whose partner is a 38 year old gambler who is Asian and still lives with his parents and they do not know about her or their granddaughter.She also had before having her daughter 2 miscarriages and 1 abrotion bu the age of 16 it seems.

What a sad sad world we live in. Children having children.

thats so sad - I don't know how I would have coped at that age with such a responsibilty - I mean I am 28 y/o now and still would not be able to take on that

Where did it go wrong? Upbringing? Society? TV?

A little bit of everything I think

well i was 17 having my first and im still with the father now 10 years on. i wish i had waited but OMG 12 now that is sad was the father of that child not done from sex with a child or rape?

thats so sad

This kind of story makes me feel so sad, how are those children going to be able to bring their babies up properly? They're not are they. The babies will grow up with the same attitudes and moral values displayed by the rest of their family and the circle will be repeated. I had my first child 4 weeks before my 25th bday. I was JUST about mature enough and unselfish enough at that age to put my baby and his welfare first EVEr time. Any younger, certainly as a teenager, and I don't think that would have been the case.
Sian

It is very sad i couldnt even imagine having children yet, not before getting a career, house etc

Its terrible isn't it I had my first baby at nearly 28 years old and I still felt too young to have children and at nearly 42 I am definitely too young to have 3

I was married at 18 and had my first at 21. I couldn't even imagine having a child at 12.
