Yes, but the only difference was that they were married at a very young age. Back in the day, people used to get married quite early and if someone got pregnant out of wedlock, they would quickly marry the guy who knocked her up. Nowadays, people don’t rush into marriage.
Also the media today isn’t how it was back then. Who would find out how many teens used to get pregnant 50 years ago?
NOw every tiny bit of news comes online and is just a click away. Who took statistics that many years ago about teenage pregnancies and how many people even annoucned it? People used to HIDE these things. Sex out of wedlock isn’t something new and neither is teenage sex. It’s just that now everything is visible, before it was all hidden.
