Name 1.

My wife's parents were married at 16 and were happily married for 70 years before they died about the same time.

While I don't care to (or see any need in) "naming" them, I know of many, many couples who married when the girl was "knocked up" and still happily married after years. One of my daughter's best high school friends has been married for 12 years after getting pregnant in high school. She now has three kids, they're a great family, and run a couple of local businesses. Successfully.

This isn't unusual. And it matters whether they come from families who understand the importance of having both a mother and a father for a child. In both these cases, this kind if responsible behavior was expected. In families where fatherhood isn't considered a real responsibility, you're likely to see the kind of neglect and sorry behavior that is so common today.

Just depends on the upbringing.
