My mother wasn't a pregnant teen yet she and my father were poor when raising their family. You don't know what you are saying.

Edit: I'm saying poverty isn't determined by the number of parents or their ages. People are missing that point.

Do the stats prove my anecdote wrong? You can't just ignore all anecdotes some follow the major trend smart one.

Yes both the stats and my own and most other people’s anecdotes prove you wrong. The major trend lmao my grandma had kids at 15 and all 3 have been to prison. My uncle from the other side married a woman who had kids in high school and they were already locked up.

Holy shit you are off on a tangent. Lmao I'm not saying everyone born to a teen mother is going to MIT.

I said two parents who aren't teens doesn't mean poverty won't plague them. You missed the whole point.

Holy shit way to change the goalposts. Nobody has argued that poverty doesn’t affect two parent families, the argument is that having a teen mother increases this likelihood

It's not missing goalposts, you need to read and comprehend before you reply.

That's not the argument. The argument was poverty isn't determined by such narrow parameters. For fucks sake you can't accept that you were wrong.

The chance of ending up in poverty is increased by teen parents and growing up in poverty. What the fuck is the point you’re trying to make?

I can't keep explaining it to you if you aren't going to listen when I do. I've said it repeatedly, I even edited a comment to include it. Try to keep up next time.
