Teenage pregnancy is not necessarily the easiest path for a young woman to take, but it is far from the end of the world. One of my closest friends was a mother when she was 16, and she turned out to be one of the strongest, most well balanced people I know, and her daughter could not be more loved or cared for. I'm not saying the situation was ideal, but she was able to cope with it more than capably.
I personally think that the choice should be up to the participants, not the people looking on from their ivory tower.
