Too young and too much responsibility at that age. Not saying they can't be good parents, but why would you want to sign your life over so soon?

Good luck to them though

They are only saying proud because they are ****ing ashamed.

Idiot parents and their kids in an oversexulaised society.

I wager their 13 year old sex lasted less than 30 seconds.

Is it brave to follow the default option? The baby was coming anyway

At that age, yes I think it's brave. They must have been really scared. Most teenagers are persuaded into abortions or adoptions I'd assume.

then clearly you don't have enough facts to make a valid argument.
no one forces teenagers into an abortion.most teenage pregnancies are a secret to almost everyone until its too late, or unless the child has been brought up to consider teenage pregnancy the norm.
There's a very fine line between bravery and idiotic self destruction, and i think by having the child these kids have crossed it.

The really brave option would have been to get it adopted, so it has the chance of a stronger family.

This is so ****ing wrong. If my daughter got pregnant at that age, or my son got a girl pregnant, I'd slap her/him ****ing silly.

Genocidal

Why is there not a law against this?

That kid should be taken by social services and put into adoption. Those people are not parents they're children.
