Young Girls With Babies

When you go to a dawat, and you see the 19 year old girl with a baby in her arms (she is married), having done zero education after high school, not really caring about politics, or public affairs, or having any interest other than beating a dhol at a mehndi…

What do you think?

PCG, the question is : What do** you **think?

Re: Young Girls With Babies

URGH.

p.s. in answer to your q lest it be misinterpreted.

Re: Young Girls With Babies

If she is married, I care not a bit.

How do you feel when you see US/European mothers with 1 or more kids, living on welfare?

Thats a far greater issue!

Huma, if anyone knows me as a poster, they probably already know what I think. I'm just wondering what the general sentiments on this are.

There's a huge spectrum within that category so it depends what you're exactly talking about.

Good for her! My mom was young mother like her! SHe's the best mom I know. I like the fact that she's still young, cuz she had me young. :) She's like my best friend now.

Everyone's different right....who are we to judge...

Yo! those girls make mehndis fun! Im a nerd, and I know I don't want 100% nerds at my wedding. I want someone there that's carefree, and a moment with her- you forget about all your troubles! just a dhol at a mehndi, a good dhol beater and people happy! :)

good for her.. she is married and blessed with the baby at very appropriate age.. education? well she has lots of time, she can continue anytime

Her life, her choice. many aunties in my moms generation did that. They raised great children, who acclompished much.

not totally, there is community in pakitan who marry their girl right after 10th grade.

Once I heard my sis talking to another doc about how those girls are not physically mature for delivery.

Re: Young Girls With Babies

it's rather discouraging, sure yeah, good for her, clap clap. but it would be nice to see motivated pakistani women who actually excel career wise, i understand that is not everyone's thing but there is much more to live than having children.

nor is everyone at 19 "mature" if you will. it's one thing to have a child, even a 12 yr old can do it, and a whole different ball game to raise one.

Re: Young Girls With Babies

Why would you think anything at all? It's her life, she chooses to live it the way she wants. Let's move on, shall we.
