Thats so baby...

So I was sitting in math today and my friend leaned over and told me about the worlds youngest grandmother. I didn't think much of it until she said that the worlds youngest grandmother is 23 years old. And yes I did type that right, 23 years old... 

Skeptical  decided to google this and what I found surprised me, it was indeed true that the youngest grandmother is 23. 

Rifca Stanescu of Romania was a mere 12 years of age when she was married and gave birth to her daughter Maria. Maria was then married at 11 years old and had her son the same year. 

In my opinion this is kinda disgusting... I mean 1. having a baby that young, 2. being married that young, and 3. being a grandmother that young. Babies should not have babies, and at 11 or 12 years old you are still a baby. That is so little, most of us are 11 in the 6th grade. Now try and remember your 6th grade year, could you at all imagine being pregnant through most of that year. I, for one cannot. When you are 11 years old the things that should concern you are what games you are going to play at recess that day, or what your mommy packed you for lunch.   

It seems these days that kids are growing up way too fast. Girls are more concerned with what they look like and how they are perceived then how they feel about themselves. I know that sounds like a cheesy motivational speaker but it is very true. No one should influence the way you feel about yourself except you. 

Girls are being influenced by their friends so much and some people don't see how one small, what seems to be insignificant comment can hurt so much. Anorexia is a trend that was first seen in the modeling world but has quickly traveled to girls and boys everywhere. The sad part is that girls younger and younger are looking for approval and they are seeing people in the media and they think that the only way they cna get the approval they are searching for is too look like that.  "You can see it in six-, seven-, eight-year-olds. It's not uncommon unfortunately," eating disorder specialist Lee Nagle said.

So basically what I want people to get out of this is too think about things before you say them because no matter how minuscule of insignificant they may seem it could really effect someones life. And one other thing, just feel good about yourself no matter what because what other people think doesn’t matter.
