[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kind of, but the reality is accidents happen, and birth control doesn't work 100% of the time. I've been telling my kids since they were young they are not to become parents until at least age 30, so they have time both for their brains to fully develop AND have a few years with those fully formed brains to experience adult life. So they know to get an abortion. [/quote]

That's hilarious. If both are above 21, in a relationship and have college degrees and ability to have a decent job, they are fine. If they are 31, its a random hook up and they don't have degree or job, brains clearly didn't develop well.[/quote]

Good luck affording daycare around here at 21.[/quote]

What are grandparents for? Most recent college grads are getting $80k+ start nowadays so with $160k, they should be okay as long as they don't have more kids for several years. I would be okay with their decision but would advise thinking it through so they know consequences.[/quote]

Recent college grads dumb enough to get pregnant aren’t making $80k out of college, and it is highly unlikely the 21 year old father will stick around (even more unlikely if they’re unmarried). I guess anything is possible if the 21 year olds have wealthy parents, but most who get pregnant at that age don’t. [/quote]
