[Opinions] And you don't know the circumstances around the pregnancy

She may have been raped, she might have a had a history of sexual abuse which puts a girl psychologically at risk of becoming promiscuous, she could have been physically abused, had an absent father- both of which put a young girl at risk of being manipulated by an older boy.

So how about you don't be so judgemental on that soapbox.

You're so right.

There are so many other factors into it. This site isn't about the age people have children anyway. Its to discuss names.

I like the combination. They're not really my style but they're cute. Lili and Lotus. Interesting and unique without going over the top. I like that she honored her grandmothers too.

I agree...I was judgemental. Mostly it is because the people I know of that get pregnant in their teens with unwanted pregnancies (not that I even know her pregnancy was unwanted from the start, but am just guessing) come up with some lame excuse that they thought they would never get pregnant. I am in no way attempting to downplay the things you mentioned nor am I saying those things did not happen to her. I was simply ranting about something that I often see and am annoyed by...it really had nothing to do with her but simply sparked a rant of mine.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone.
