Young teens settling down and having kids.

Samantha
So, I can't seem to understand this. Why are people so young, from 16-20 trying to get married, and having kids etc. so young? I'm young myself. I'm 19 and I would love to be a mother one day, but I still can't wrap my head around having a baby now. I also have been with my boyfriend for over two years, yet I still don't want to settle down and have kids yet. I just want to see it from someone else's point of view. Do you think it's okay? If you did have kids young, did you miss out on a lot? Let me know.
