It's sad because they miss out on a lot in life... They have to work even harder at having to provide not only for themselves, but for someone they brought into the world. Not being disrespectful to anyone who has been through this or is going through this, it's just sad to see someone struggle so much at such a young age. I know some mothers that age have raised amazing kids, but some of the mothers just miss out so much on life, especially if they have no one to help them, the father is gone, etc etc etc... Most mother's around age would say they wish they would've waited as they really don't know what to do and are forced to grow up faster than they ever wanted to. (I hope I answered the right question...)
