Puberty? Hormones raging?


Even if that was occuring at such a young age it's possible to continue to occupy herself with other adventures for girls her age. I too blame the parents for not looking out for her and teaching her self control.

Not sayin that she should, but I can understand how it's also possible for "an 11 year old would want to have sex when she should be concentrating on being a kid and the bigger picture ahead."
I was 8 when I started puberty and was havin my period at 10, so I can understand feenin for sex at age 11...or at least something down there eek
Again, lemme make myself clear that I'm not sayin it's ok... I was only addressin how it's possible, cause u were sayin that u don't understand how.
I swear the words "HATER" is wayyy over-rated...smh

maybe...or that getting pregnant at a young age is scary...I felt that way when I was younger.



i had a huge comment made and hit the wrong button and lost it mad
but the gist of it was that U.S. culture is different and newer than these older cultures and the two views on the morality of the situation are completely different. it seems a bit unnatural to me that women would wait until they are too old and unfit physically to have a child to say the least. communities/ families took care of children and some cultures still do unlike the here in the U.S. shrug


Thank you.

In some ways I think it's totally irresponsible to get pregnant at 45 years old when your body is so ill-equipped to handle a pregnancy. There's a reason we get our periods around 12 years old - it's actually prime time for babymaking, biologically speaking. Clearly it's not prime time in terms of maturity or ability to care and provide for a child in our society, but things used to be different in that respect. Still are, in some places.

But we sure do love to be disgusted by shit that we deem immoral, don't we? lol
It's what you make it.

everybody is different and so is every culture and the value that is placed on females not to mention agism and sexism. It seems to me irrelevant at what age this girl got her period and what age she may or may not have had sexual urges. What is apparent is that (for whatever reason) she has developed early but not fully and so some people seem to think that it's alright to deprive her of her remaining childhood and slut her out to be a baby making farm.

Having a child too early has just as many health consequences as having a child to late. Putting restrictions on a female simply because she is female is unacceptable. We don't see boys being forced to become fathers and drop out of school and engage in early sex coupled with shotgun weddings just because their voices change and their armpits begin to stink.

The bottom line is this child, and she is a child, had the deck stacked against her from the moment she was born into that family because it was always expected that she would become somebody's baby farm and house cleaner aka wifey and there never seemed to be an expectation that she would take her time growing up, have an education and make her own choices in life. I don't see how anybody would think this situation is a good one for her, the man or the child. twocents
