same thing with niki taylor. i know she had 2 kids by the time she was 20.. i dont recall exactly which age, but her poor sister died over 10 years ago.. i was always saddened by that as her sister also wanted a child by the time she turned 20 and this never reached fruition. sad.

I’d imagine its kind of awkward for her son when people think his mom is his girlfriend. It’s hard enough being a teenager without that drama!! But they seem to handle it well, good for them.

I’m a natural blonde with dark eyebrows as well. I gave up the fight of rude comments and dyed it dark to match. The roots have just started to grow out and now people are asking if I have gray hair! Ya just can’t win! Ha ha ha.

LOL, I have a feeling this is how it is going to be when my child reaches that age. I don’t have a problem with it at all though. After seeing what my mother has to deal with on a daily basis as an older mother of teenagers (when all she wants to do is relax after working so hard all her life), I have come to the conclusion that I DO NOT want that to be me.

Also, if anyone doubts that she is a natural blonde, just google her. She has been around for years and years in Latin America and it is only recently (as in the past few years) that she has been dying her hair that dark color.

It is possible to be a natural blonde with dark brows. I am part Icelandic, and I have true blonde (honey shade, but nowhere near brown) hair, but my eyebrows have always been black. Jet black. It’s a Nordic thing. I color my hair darker because I got tired of being asked why I colored my hair when it was blonde.

My philosophy is a bit different. I’d rather get the fun out of the way now (I’m 25) then be shacked up with kids! I like my freedom too much. To come and go as I please. To vacation at the drop of dime! I can give this all up in a few years once the fun has died down and I’m ready to just be a mommy. I’m not saying you can’t have fun or do these things with kids but you can’t be as spontaneous when you got more people to think about!

And I understand the hair thing quite a bit. I was born with really dark brown hair. By 9 months though it started to fall out. Then by the time I was two and it started to grow back I had really blonde hair! It remained that way for awhile. But by the time I reached 8th grade it began to get darker and because I was unfamiliar with having dark hair I decided to dye it various shades of blonde for years!

That was until two years ago and I decided to go brown! It was a shock to everyone who knew me but everyone now thinks I look way better and much older. I decided to not dye it to see what may “natural” color would be and believe it or not it’s coming back light brown (which doesn’t surprise me since I have light brown eyebrows)! It’s funny how hair will continue to change throughout life and sometimes you may never know what color it really is

My mom had her first child, my older brother, at 19, my sister at 21, and me at 23. She always loved it when people saw her out with her grandkids and weren’t sure if she was their mom or grandmother–and my sister and brother didn’t have their kids until they were in their late 20s.

BTW, I’m a natural blonde, and my hair has always been the same darkish blonde color. It was usually lighter when I was a kid because it naturally lightens a lot in the sun and I was always outside. These days I avoid the sun so I lighten it at the salon, but only a few shades. No one realizes I dye my hair unless I tell them or I’ve been lazy about the roots.

I am 43 and I also get mistaken for my daughters sister. I take it as a compliment but I also want people to know that I am not their sister I am their mother. Does that make sense?

There are definite advantages to having children at a young age. Tops on my list would be that I had more energy and more patience when I was younger. I can’t speak for everybody I just know that is true for me.

I don’t think it’s creepy, if my mother was with us she would be 41 this year and I will be 24 this year. Life happens.

She looks great.. i’m 21 and would love to have kids at a young age.. but havent got a man;)

My mom is 45, dad 44 and they have a son,23 and me,21 and 2 grandkids already..
My brothers kids are 2,5 and 3 months.. so he also is a young father;)

Everybody was always amazed that my parents have kids that age.. they already had an empty nest when they were 39/40

Emily, I totally agree! I had my first (and only) son at 20 and now I am 23. His birthday is 20 days before mine! I love the idea of being a young mom and being 38 when he graduates high school. Women having children in their 40’s is great I think too. I just dont know how they do it. Im tired every day by 8 o’clock! HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
