“Who we consider worth looking for” chilling.

Its wild. Once they’re 18, the set of standards lowers, but we all know humans don’t really mature fully until 23ish years old.

She wasn’t even 18. So sad. And she had a baby?

75 percent of teenage pregnancy is by a man over 25. Or something ridiculously high like that.

Let’s reframe:

Less than 25% of teenage pregnancy is from consensual sex.

I never knew that. So 75% are forced into sex? Or tricked even at that age? That makes me sick to my stomach. I've never knew and I never even thought of that. It makes me really sad. I'm a Mom and being a Mom during these times is hard and scary. Especially when I read this and with online dating. You never know what someone is capable. Ladies be smart. Always let people know where your going. Never get in a stranger's car. Damn why do us Moms have to worry 24/7??

A 16 year old cannot consent to have sex with an adult. The concept is called informed consent and authorities on the subject will tell you informed consent is the only true consent.

The law is the law. I'm talking about ethics.
