My great-grandmother, who was born in 1910, may have gotten married at 13 (iirc her husband was 17-18 at the time) and had my grandmother when she was 14... but that's doesn't make it "right" that she was a teen mother. She married young to get out of an abusive home life and that was her only way out at the time.
