Shouls the age of having kids be rised?

Age?

people in the world are still having kids when they are 13 and people back in the old days had kids when they were older. you just tend to notice the younger people having children because it is harder for them to raise them and require more attention. there is no real set age of appropriate childbearing people just like to have set things in order so they make these "appropriates" which are not always correct to use.

 

Not really, mainly because it wouldn't even help. No one would agree to it, and if this "rule" changed, no one would follow it anyhow.

 

I think it should be rised.My cousin she's 13...had has kids!About 1 or 2.I have a nother cousin(she's not blood related to me) and she had 2 kids when she was 14.That's just wrong.And then my other cousin when she was 16 had a kid..I mean COME ON!!I think it should be raised!

 

omg....I'm so surprised that teenagers can handle the responsiblity of raising a child. O_O Teens are normally busy with school and thier most crucial part of their life, they shouldn't be trying to raise a child! I definately say yes, raise the age!

 

you should keep in mind that many of the premature kids are an accident (no protection), I know that sounds harsh, but it's true. And having an abortion at such a young age may be deadly for the girl

 

It's called their parents...>.>;

It's not like the teen is living on her own. Usually during a teen pregnancy, the parents will either cover it up, go into denial, or decide to raise the baby, because oftentimes the teen cannot do it by themself.

 

I think the age now is 18+ or something.

I don't think it should be risen from that. That age works fine.

That's the age a woman is [usually] mature enough to handle having a baby.

 

Yeah, this is why more emphasis should be placed on contraception. Kids that age should still be running around and enjoying life...not naked.
