Her grandma is 46.

So lets say the granny got preg at 16 and her mother too.

46 - 16 - 16 is 14.... That's too young for husband...

46 - 15 - 15 is 16... OK, that's better and worse at the same time 🫠

(This means that that the average age of impregnation on their side is around 14 - 15 yo 🤨)

I knew a family like this. They had like 5 generations living in one house plus a trailer out back. They were thrilled when my classmate got pregnant as a young teen.

So baby, plus 13-14 year old classmate and her younger sister, plus her mom and dad in their late 20s, plus early 40s Grandma, plus great grandma. Other than dad it was a string of guys dating my classmate, grandma, and great grandma also living there on and off.

I don't know this for a fact, but I heard that my classmate's great great grandma was also alive at the time. So the baby's great great great grandma.

I didn't think there was any inbreeding going on like in this story though. At least that rumor never surfaced.

Tbh, I’m 32 and if I could have my 16 year old energy levels back, I might be more open to having kids.

My parents were over 40 when I was born. I think about the idea of getting pregnant at that age with horror.

I know that it’s “financially smart” to wait longer, but god, being able to be done (I know you’re not “done” done, but the workload is significantly reduced) in your mid thirties sounds great. Especially if you have a well established family support network like that.

Honestly, having a large multigenerational family you live among sounds way more sustainable than every small family unit having its own. My grandmother lived with us when I was growing up, which was a huge help for both my parents and grandmother.

If everyone gets along, I don't see a problem. Trouble is, people usually don't get along all that well. That is why it is advisible to leave the couple to form their own household. All sorts of problems arise from quarels and misunderstandings, there will just be bad blood all around.

This is an old "joke" and I heard a similar version of it in my (non-English speaking) country like 25 years ago. Like, also going into fine detail about who is whose relative, as a consequence. Saying "NO this is not a stupid joke" won't suddenly make it not a stupid joke. Also, observe the profile pic and tell me if she looks like a typical 14-16 year old.
