I got pregnant at seventeen and had our daughter at eighteen. My husband and I got married when I was 4 months pregnant... we are about to celebrate our 25th wedding aniv. I would never say it was easy, it wasn't and it still isn't. There will ALWAYS be stress and obstacles in life, its how you choose to handle it. I am very proud of our accomplishments... 2 beautiful adult children, 2 gorgeous grandsons. We became homeowners when I was only 19, how many people can say that? I would never suggest that someone should get pregnant at such a young age... Only because you limit your choices. The choice is made and you no longer get to focus on just you...It takes alot of years before you can become "selfish" again with yourself. I am finally getting to that... my children are happy and healthy..we did our job (although it never really ends ) and I can concentrate on me...or us. Thats real nice.

Unless you lock them up in the basement and watch their every move how is anyone to know anymore? I think that it is admirable that they try to get married, I am sure they know they don't have to. The Palin family will support their daughter no matter what and help their situation out as much as possible. A family with special needs children almost always comes with an unbridled determined love unseen in most families. As far as teen pregnancy goes and where they end up...well ask Barack Obama where his teenage mother's pregnancy got them...
