Tell me turning someone kids into sex objects is not wrong.
She is still an child at the age of 16 regardless of her having an child! Would you be willing to say the same thing if an 13 or 14 year old has one?

I dont really care if Obama said that. Yes I supported Obama but that doesnt mean everything he says is the right way to do it. Like I have stated I dont personally think that going after the kids is the right thing to do. I am just saying she set her family up for it. Whether it is right or wrong is up to the individual viewing the situation. I am merely stating she is partly to blame for her family getting negative attention. When you parade them in the spot light so much, they are bound to get criticized.
And yes I think that makes her an adult in my eyes. If you are moving on to more adult thing, I see you as an adult. You may not have all the same experiences an 18 year old would. But you sure as hell have more experience than many other 16 year olds. This goes to the age old question of what really is an adult. I have known plenty of 16 year olds who are intellectually more advanced that legally binding adults. Just because you turn a certain age doesn't make you automatically smarter and more mature. Its the same when you look at the legal system. If the law worked by your standards than no one no matter what would ever be tried as and adult under the age of 18. But people are tried as adults when they are under the age of 18.
