  1. i had 2 kids by 19, and was married at 18. Mom threw me out of the house right after i turned 18. should have left him and gone on welfare instead., Then pell grants and college. We have lots of resources i just didn't know it, as i came from an upper middle class ( but abusive) family . We nevr heard of using government benefits. wish i had known about the welfare stuff, as my ex was extremely abusive to me and my daughters. help is out there in this country. Thank God.

  2. her parents forced her to marry this guy? or she decided to? i know when i was 14 i had a 22 year old boyfriend and would have jumped at the chance to marry him. but my sister spoiled it and threatened to tell on me and stop it. My life without him was horrible after that. He was gorgeous and already wealthy too.

  3. LOL it's not even remotely like those countries, are you kidding? one phone call and she is outa there. welfare, free school, free college, free pell grants, free food, free child care. Nobody made these pregnant girls have sex with thier boyfriends in the usa, what a joke, to even try to compare these promiscuous sexually active teens with these slave children sold to old men! Are you KIDDING ! American girls have all kinds of recourse and resources for them. ONE phone call is all it takes. And they can catchup in school easily, it happens allthe time.

  4. nobody's making these American ( and Brit) teens have sex! they are doing it because they want to. they are FREE, and having babies and get welfare. they know the ropes. And besides, not everyone wants to wait to marry or wait to have a child. it's called having a choice. It's called natural biology. Can't fight Mother nature.  @robertopezzutto5843  actually marriage in that case is a good idea for many. They are just doing it early. That's right, the USA is a bunch of wild feral people in a lot of places doing as we please, as long as the law allows it..

  5. yeah, well, i think some have just bought them early when available and won't use them for sex at all, maybe thier son will marry them. Or they will wait a few years at least . could be. but some probably will do the wrong thing of course. some may jus t use them as a house servant for years or decades. .

  6. there's nothing stopping her from going to school, getting caught up and getting a diploma and even a free college degree on Pell grants if she is poor. Even free child care. Get real, this is NOT THE SAME as these hard cases in muslim lands etc. THEY HAVE ZERO CHOICES. your friend was fooling around and got pregnant. yes that's the wrong way to go unless it's the love of your life, and obviously it wasn't. it's poor parenting by her parents no doubt. But nothing like these SOLD , MUCH YOUNGER BRIDES. NO COMPARISON! that is just outrageously dumb.

  7. they do what our ancestors did, get em married to avoid promiscuity. nowadays our teens are just sleeping around. is that better, really? but not having a choice is the bad part with these sold girls. Thee is life after marrage and children, believe it or not. all kinds of married women and moms to go school and college.
