Just thought I'd add that in.

As for 19 being too young, I think it is. I'm 33 and have a 1yr old and being a father is tough (but indescribably awesome too). How can you be an engineer at the age of 20 anyway?
Family owned Business, he probably gets everything handed to him!

19 year old certainly don't make alot right out of high school, thats a fact, I was lucky to make 450-500 a week at my detailing job at a dealership, and that was putting 12 hour days in etc, Of coarse once I started doing my SAT Prep Program I had to cut back but still made decent money, no where's near were Id be able to afford a kid. this was right out of high school, I graduated from HS in 08, Ill be 19 in 10 days.

Course, I don't think most people should be having children even when they're 35, but that's just me.
Opinion's are opinions but I will agree to that as well. some people shouldn't have kids period.
