Ahh... and a chance for my family to shine through....

My cousin moved to Arkansas to be with his dad for a while. Knocked up his STEP SISTER, age 14-15. They got married shortly after, before she hit 16.

My family is mostly in Michigan... there were several members NOT happy about this.... (looking beyond a teenage pregnancy...)

It's both good and bad. I mean, some teenagers are easier to take care than fully grown adults.
