[quote=Anonymous]I remember reading an article by an anthropologist who was studying hunter-gatherers. At first he was shocked that people started having children in their teens/early 20s, but quickly realized those 18 year olds had more maturity than most of the Westerners in their 40s that he knew. They had been caring for children since their own childhood, worked hard every day to care for themselves (feeding, cleaning, building shelter, etc), seeing death on a daily basis, fending for themselves, etc. In their teens, they were better parents than those he knew who had children in their 40s.

I kinda feel a similar thing is happening here. She had to carry a lot on her shoulders since the death of her father - caring for her brother, running the family business, and she's lived through real tragedy so doesn't feel the need to spend years partying. She knows that nothing is more important than the people you love. She's also accomplished a HUGE amount for her age - not like your standard 21 year old who has no real experience or accomplishments.

It may not be the right path for most 21 year olds, but it sounds like it is for her.[/quote]
