I am descended from a woman who was married at 15 and had given birth 17 times by age 40. I wonder at what age this woman married.

My ancestor worked quite hard to provide for the children. I wonder what the father does in this case, to avoid putting unfair burden on others.

Oh, you're hillarious!!!

at what age this woman married Ahahahah!

Ahahaha!!!

The sad part is, I know libs that would call a large conservative family "irresponsible" (when they are self supporting), and then turn around and claim that a woman like this should have the "choice" to make as many kids as she wants to.

Father? There's probably 10 fathers.

My Grandmother was married at 34 and had given birth 15 times by age 53 or about that. One son became wealthy, several children went to college (before WWII). Almost all of us grandchildren got a college education, with a number of PhD's.
