Her sister so clearly chose to get pregnant on purpose, it’s sad that she felt so starved of attention that she resorted to that, especially after seeing the sacrifices her parents had already made for Charlotte.
No child should ever have to raise another, but the child put herself in a situation where that was clearly a risk. Does not really matter why she had a child and if I'm honest if it was for attention that's worse.
@@johnrouguine3090how? The dad looks hard working and the mum is disabled. She made her own selfish decision to open her legs. Her parents should’ve sent her to the council to be housed though.
@@ThePonyaS if they were 16/17 then yes butt hey were 14 and very much young children. it's disappointing and misogynistic that is parents feel their responsibility in this is less.
@@ThePonyaS And of their parents the same can be said... You are still responsible for your kids until they are legal adults... Just because they got a baby doesn't mean the parents can just dump their son at other peoples house and not support him in any way possible. If they can't bother to take care of their son's needs even if it's a small amount of money that pays for his housing needs then they shouldn't have gotten a kid either. It's not the girl's parents responsibility to take care of him. They should all take responsibility.
There are two twins on TH-cam, the Pressley Girls who did this over the past two years. They're adults but very immature, small town and very dependent on their parents. The dominant twin got married and made a big fuss about it. She's very fake and super Christian and needy for attention. Her twin is more laid back and she ended up getting pregnant. Her boyfriend declined to marry her so she had the baby on her own. Her sister immediately anmounced that she was pregnant too and kept trying to get their followers to focus on her and her pregnancy even though she was months behind on her due date compared with her twin. The laid back twin had her baby and didn't want him to be on camera. The dominant twin kept holding her pregnant belly in every photo, did a video on her labor experience and shows her baby 24/7. Identical twins definitely can have more of a sibling rivalry than other siblings depending on how dominant one twin might be.
As a twin myself, you grow up experiencing every part of life together. If my sister would have gotten pregnant in highschool it would have felt like our identical path was splitting too soon. We are always in everything together. I don’t think I would have copied her if I was in that situation but I could see why many would want to as twins. I wouldn’t want to be separate
@@charlotte20217 you realize you have huge fiction to your story, at 15 you are under your parents' care, you cannot live alone, especially when you are that age and pregnant, they would be arrested for neglect and you would be placed in foster care. Do you want to start over your story?
@@Ok-yr1fm that's not what I'm saying my mom died when I was 12 yes I was living under my dad's roof not that it's your business I got a job when I was pregnant and so did my fiance now living in our own house at 19.
@@charlotte20217 you are full of s#@7: 1st you deleted a post in which you said you were 15 and took care of your child on your own, 2nd I never asked you if you were working cz no one would hire a pregnant 15-year old 3. You were living under your dad's roof, meaning he fed you, clothed you, and was fully babysit you and your child. 4 and no you never had a fiancée or house by 19, I bet $10 you would brag about that very 1st moment when you opened your mouth. I'm done talking to a liar. keep living in delusion, it seems to keep you "together"
Overall, this seems like such a nice family making the best of a difficult situation. The mum and dad deserve a lot of credit for supporting their daughters. ❤
Maybe if the parents weren’t quite so laid back their other daughter would of thought twice before deciding it was a good idea to get pregnant also! Sleeping on a mattress on the living room floor to accommodate their daughter’s babies and boyfriends is unfair and their children are taking full advantage of them.
I mean, but as a parent you dont have a choice but to support them. Im glad i only have a son, i wont be having any pregnant kids in my house. Ive already told him whats it gonna be like if he is going to get someone pregnant while underaged, and he definetly does not wanna go there. You have to be on top of these kinds of things, its not enough to just teach them about safe sex, but you also gotta make them realise just how much they would have to sacrifice if they end up in that situation, at that time, its already too late to regret and change youre mind. Why do it while youre still a kid, when you can do it later on with someone you absolutely want to do it with, and have all the proper means and tools. As parents, we just have to make them understand that, and keep reminding them about it.
Honestly they seem incredibly mature and responsible, wanting to work and budgeting their money. Budgeting is hard for me even as an adult with no kids
@@ambermarielewis9353 well I commented that before I heard the mother say she thinks she did it on purpose to so im not the only one who thinks it lol but I think it because she saw her twin with her baby and ever since she got pregnant it pushed them apart in the sisters eyes so I think she did it thinking it bring them closer again but didn’t and she even kinda said that but when her sister called her stupid for getting pregnant she was surprised because she went threw it and thought she would support her so I just really think she did it on purpose to bond with her twin more and whatever other reasons the dad thinks it could be for attention as well
Man if I had gotten pregnant at 14 I would have been kicked out of the house. This is just mind blowing. I'm happy for the girls that their parents are so supportive...
@@niismo.well i don't think any parent wants their child to have children whilst they're still a teenager mate, that person's parents may want grandchildren but no good parent would be estatic about having grandbabies at that age would they.
@niismo. My parents want them, with the economy and state of the world It's a no for me now, but especially with 3 siblings and as a teen I'd get the boot 😂
@@ami.sabbath Yeah, giving birth at that age is physically straining on the body, but most families don't want their kids to do that because of fear of dishonor to the family.
I like how the babies parents undertake the parenting before & after school & the grandparents do the caring only when they’re at school. I think the grandfather still looks in shock. Good luck to them & I hope the undertake further studies to support their family.
They have too she's too young to miss school, thank you parents for all of the support, as alot of parents make their child have an abortion, or adoption which is traumatic.
The grandparents do the parenting 24/7 because they are financing them and putting a roof over their heads. Just because the grandparents aren't walking around with a baby on their arm in the evening doesn't mean the parents are doing a fantastic job.
They clearly can’t take back what happened . The deed is done . All we can do is praise her for doing the best she can in her situation now . Everyone knows getting pregnant young isn’t okay but when things are already said and done we’re going to keep being negative towards her when she’s trying to make the best out of her situation?
Their voices are so young and it's strange to see them in adolescence taking on the parenting role but thankfully they seem to have the loving support they need to get on with it, for the sake of their babies!
I’m more concerned that girls and boys have a full understanding of contraception options and parents encourage it. I don’t mean encourage sex, but preventing pregnancy.
@@jcny11 I agree. My daughter was busy studying for exams at the twins age. She and I had great discussions before her periods even started. Having sex was a no-no at such a young age. She was confident enough to get her priorities right, because she wanted to have a career and travel. I saw it as my responsibility to give her the strength and desire to put herself first.
In all fairness I completely agree. I grew up in a ‘don’t discuss sex’ kinda household and started having sex at 13, researching & accessing contraception all by myself. Now I’m 20 and I see 13 year old girls that actually blows my mind. I hope to do better to educate my future children because that was incredibly risky & could’ve gone so badly lmao
@@jessi1789 oh don't get me.wrong I'm not saying not to discuss these things with them but the facts the age of consent is 16 they"re still so immature and irresponsible at that age it's just silly .
@@jcny11 they can have a full understanding and.still not have the emotional/cognitive maturity to handle the responsibility. I agree that they should be educated but I don't see how it makes sense that a 16 year old can consent to sex yet now play the lottery.

6 years before you got to condition your hair?? Im one of 7 kids, 3 of whom are single mums, 2 of those have kids with additional needs. Both lived alone with their child/children. I can think of very few excuses for not keeping up your personal hygiene if your comment was serious. Your kid/kids slept. Everybody Everybody's can spare time to condition their hair
@@evieishappy9284 exactly. It’s the shampoo that actually cleans your hair, and I have a friend who doesn’t shampoo her hair at all and hasn’t for years. This doesn’t apply to everyone, but in general people use more than they need.
Not sure about conditioning hair but I'm writing this while doing the 4th feed of the night just 2h in and baby is already 11 months. I'm 30 and agreed this couple are amazing and so impressed how he moved in and pitched in. Probably good to give bottles so she can go to school. Leaking boobs and pumping wouldn't work with school!
@@ThePonyaS sadly, there really is these kind of children where they are rebellious against their parents, even if their parents are loving and kind to them. But yeah of course, it's also the parents faults for not looking out after their child. *before u say anything, i am speaking from my own personal perspective, I have a sister who got pregnant at the age of 15-16.
See I'm not so sure. I think it's a shame that the first twin thinks she's entitled to *all* extra resources i.e mum's babysitting during the day, emergency expenses for baby, mum or dad, help+time+attention from parents to make sure life works for everyone involved, etc.. Allanah naturally is going to be very attached to the idea of wanting to go through the cycles of life by her sister's side. All the resentment coming from everybody is pretty unfair. Plus, everyone is accusing her of *trying* to get pregnant when for all we know Charlotte and Lewis are so smitten with each other that they could've been romantically reckless themselves, and are just white lying saying that the condom "split".
@@ThePonyaSRight, horrible parents allowing boys around their daughters. I have 2 daughters too and they are left alone with no one except my older one going to school. My younger one is homeschooled and always under my supervision.
@@amandamadyara5635 especially most teenage boys who get girls pregnant. when it comes to teen pregnancies this is rare. I have never seen it in my life.
The parents were surprised that the twin sister got pregnant as well, when she wanted a closer bond with her twin.... and was not getting much attention. LOL
she got pregnant on purpose and was clearly proud if you watch her body language and her interactions with the family. she couldn’t handle the fact that her sister is a mother and doesn’t have time for her anymore, her parents were put in a situation where they had to break their backs to help support a teen couple with a baby, if the sister can’t cope and understand that then thats her problem. personally i think she’s an immature brat, her plan backfired on her and you can see her vibe change after she mentioned she wasn’t together with her boyfriend anymore. its complete and utter bullshit honestly
I can assure you now Charlotte does give off a vibe as if she’s mature enough and has the ability to look after her child which you obviously saw , honestly I’m proud of her handling all this, especially while she was very determined to get good grades AS well as looking after a literal human being, personally she pulled off great as a 15 year old.
@@Itsgrace-xoits great she have the maturity to take care of the baby, but did she think of the possiblity of being pregnant when having sex at 14?? And its entire pros and cons?? It seems quite stupid to be having sex before being older (eg 18+yr as you may get a full grasp on being a parent and have more time and skills) considering many cons can come for underaged pregnancies such as the mothers dying before or during childbirth, the chance of getting abandoned by parents (thank god she wasnt), the child needs attention so it takes away studying time which can cause troubles for school, not having enough money so it forces people especially the parents to use up their savings and forcing them to work way harder just to support you (which i think is very inconsiderate) and many more. Crazy how children think its ok to have sex🤦 jesus!
Charlotte and her partner are better parents then some older people, she still wants an education and her and Lewis are together supporting the baby, but I think Alanagh got pregnant because she felt left out, and plus her and her sister are twins so its quite common.. I think that the parents will have another teen pregnancy as she is so used to having them around.
god bless these parents!! extremely supportive allowing the teen dads to even move in so they can grow strong bonds with their babes, have to respect it, Can't imagine how difficult and stressful it was for them finding out their second twin had also become pregnant, but they don't seem to have let any of it affect their relationship!
I do think there is something bigger going on there with the other twin also getting pregnant not long after the first twin had their baby. but can't fault the support from the parents, lots of kids would of been thrown out the house to fend for themselves!
@@Grimreaper-Pickuplines i'm a 2007 born gen z, but i was unpriviliaged as my parents never gave me the password to the wifi for 24/7 internet access until it corona. anyways, i survived all elementary school and middle school without knowing what sex is. because students even the most daring ones don't talk about the topic there. of course we learnt about the reproductive system, but most of us never knew how the egg and the sperm got together in the same place. however, as soon as i was on the internet free to search anything, i started reading memes on instagram, watching meme/ reddit channels on youtube and watching comedy/romance movies (on a free online website that doesn't show the rating. and tho the jokes there were hilarious, most of them were referencing sex. and well, my curiosity got the best of me and i started reading the BTS fanfics or other fanfics that were rampant on Wattpad. i always hated them tbh because i knew they contained explicit material, and that's why i resorted to read them. anyways, i was disgusted and depressed for about a year after learning what sex was. and i was already 15 at the time (tbh i was 14 when i first heard about the jokes). i have no idea how you handled it. but i hope that you overcame it.
I also had a baby at 14! My husband (then boyfriend) and i chose adoption as we didnt have a support system. Lovely to see this family come together ❤️
The twin sister who’s boyfriend broke it off with her still needs to be forced to support his baby. If the parents of the twins don’t get involved forcing that irresponsible teen to be there for his baby, they’ll end up raising it.
😢 it's sad but us mums will do anything to make life better for our children. I also have a chronic condition that's tops me working but I also sleep in the front room because I have a two bed house with two teenagers one girl one boy so I don't think they should share a bedroom and they need privacy.

This family absolutely is the definition of love. What a lovely lovely family. Kudos mom and dad and grandma and papa. Wishing all the best, I am concerned that the sister clearly did this on purpose. Which is sad. But this family is a sold loving family. I was a mom at 16 and I had an incredibly supportive loving family as well.
Louis is a high-quality young man! And Charlotte clearly comes from a lovely family. I feel for the girls' parents and hope the little one learns from her sisters.
Holy moly. On one hand, it's so refreshing to see 15 year old looking 12, unlike so many 15 year olds looking 25 these days. So many people are blaming the parents of these twins. Tsk-tsk. Allanah getting pregnant as well is truly heartbreaking. Sad to say because I'm not a twin, but I understand why Allanah did it 😢
I was so relieved when she got back with the father of her child at the end because I just felt bad when she was saying she loves to see her sister so happy in her little family
@@wynterblackwell3640 I do because she was low key bragging at that lunch date how she was the first in school that year to become pregnant. Acting like it's a badge of honor
I remember watching this one when it was first shown years ago on BBC3. They were both so young. You can see their parents are exhausted, it is nice they were supportive. I'm sure they split up (Charlotte and Lewis) I think she's married to someone else now. Important thing is the little ones had love and support around them. It's such a shame the youngest sister got bullied though, that isn't fair. I hope they are all doing well and that the babies have grown up to be happy, safe and healthy too.
Every UK episode I watch of teen pregnancy, they always say "we used condoms but I think it split" like what ate ur condoms made of over there tissue paper!?
They probably put the condom on wrong or used the wrong size. I've had a condom split before and I've been using them correctly for years, things can just go wrong, unfortunately.
I had a child at 15 I’m now 65 and My Son will be 50 soon I never ever regretted it Thing were Tough I was not the perfect Mother When I knew better I did better I went on to have 3 more children I thank God for My children everyday
Good for the mum for staying in education and trying to secure a better future for her and her baby! Hopefully she went onto higher education and got a good job in the end for her and her young family ❤ All the best to them
What an amazing guy Lewis is. He not only stuck around, but he's remained in education, is contributing financially and is always smiling. He's clearly very happy with his situation, and at that age, that's a truly rare thing. I'm genuinely happy for Charlotte and Lewis.
Your 14 year old tells your she’s pregnant and all you can get out is “can you get me a glass of wine?” Probably the most relatable reaction I’ve ever heard 😆 And then the parents giving all the kids the bedrooms and them sleeping on the floor of the lounge? Wow. Selfless.
Shout out to Luis for stepping up. Proud of him. Charlotte...trying. The parents suck, especially the mom. The youngest is ignored, the other got knocked up for attention and is too immature to be a mom, and the dad is the provider...not much more. Grandma/mom...pull more weight and spend quality time with your kids. This is a mad house.
I really do understand why she didn’t tell her sister, I’m a twin and couldn’t even tell my twin identical sister that I got my period, it’s like a feeling where they would judge you cause you’ve been so close all your life so it’s not like a friend who will be supportive all the time you know? Like twins fight all the time you know sooo yaaa… I don’t really know… only twins would understand
2024 update : I know a lot of people are curious so I did a little digging online and have some updates on the family. The mum and dad are now separated, the little sister managed to beat teen pregnancy and is now engaged and a paediatric nurse, Allanah graduated from uni and I don’t believe she had any other kids and her and Corey are not together, Charlotte got married in 2019 to a barber called Jake and Allanah was one of her bridesmaids. The baby daddy Lewis also moved on and welcomed a daughter this year with a new partner, he posts a lot about Kenzie and it seems he’s a normal, happy and childless 15 year old

@@juliedunkley1055 we are not talking biological maturity (though, hit the second she started her period in a sense) but someone can absolutely be mature beyond their age. Usually this happens because of external reasons (negletful abusive households, or in this case, becoming a mother.)
I had a patient a while back who has their first child at 15. They were 47 and their daughter was 32. Not much difference at that age. They looked like two friends or sisters.i did a double take when I first saw her daughter’s age.
Our oldest brother had a baby at 15. It was great birth control for my twin brother and myself 😂 I absolutely LOVED helping care for and raising my nephew, but it taught me the reality of having a baby, toddler, child, and teen! I didn't have my child until I was in my 20s, my twin brother didn't have his until he was in his early 30s. To bad the twins couldn't have been more involved with each other. Maybe the first one was to worried about the baby thinking her twin was the mom? Idk, it's better when the whole family is involved. The 2nd twin probably felt completely lost to her twin suddenly having a live in boyfriend and baby. It's extremely hard to start going your separate ways as adults, so I can't imagine how that would feel at such a young age.
It’s nice to see the parents so supportive, but at the same time, they are to lenient with their rules by allowing boyfriends at such tender young ages.
Allowed is not the right word they were simply aware. This could happen to anyone at any time. Even fully grown adult have accident. That's why they tell u to always use 2 forms of contraceptive. And abstinence is the only sour way to prevent pregnancy. School also had to abandon strict abstinence expectations for safe sex lessons bc they realize that teens are going to have sex either way. And when teaching abstinence over safe sex was the highest rate of teen pregnancy. But go ahead and throw stones in your glass castle. Just because u not allowing your child to date doesn't mean they're not, it just means u don't know about it.
do you know teens? 'allowing boyfriends' unless they are literally right next to them every second of the day the WILL have boyfriends and they WILL have s... In the school toilet if they have to but they will.
They are a lovely little family! Don't lament too much about 'years of freedom missed'. (You never know what disaster could have come from running a little wild anyway.) Look what you would have missed out on with that beautiful baby. You may not have a house of your own - but you all have a beautiful house to live in. Thank you, grandparents. When baby is grown believe me life isn't over. You will have had baby and now you can have your peace together. Best of luck and best wishes.
More vigilance was required here . The parents should have been more vigilant. Apparently they are no longer together. Too much . Too young . Having children is for adults . Not for children .
There should have been better education for both children, and when the girl started dating her parents should have been given birth control of some kind to her, and the boy should have been given condoms
Every kid gets told what not to do, they were also taught about protection. If you are strict you will raise sneaky kids remember that. They will try it if they want to, you just need to parent your hardest and support your kids. Don’t support teen pregnancy but support pregnant teens!
I can't imagine going through all the trials of teenage hood with hormones, and then adding pregnancy on top. It must be unbelievabley difficult. Charlotte is certainly putting on a brave face. The face that the dad moved in to help care for the baby is lovely too. I don't know how old this episode is it looks like the 2000s but I hope they look back and know that they did the best for there child
Every day of my live I'm grateful my mother did the right thing and took me to a clinic to have a termination procedure when I was impregnated at age 14. I was a child. These are children. They were playing at being adults and now they're being forced to become them. It's a sad shame.
So lucky they have supportive people around. My oldest son was born when i had just turned 18, didn't want to tell my parents either. I did my best, but was very difficult.
Look at this! Why are kids having kids and they think they are more grown and doing just fine. What about their parents? They literally sleep on the floor in their living room in their own house. They aren’t smart either it’s so hard out in this world and most children aren’t protected these days it’s so freaking sad. Get a job,get an education, make money to financially protect you and don’t sleep around if you aren’t aware or accept the consequences. Make smarter choices!
@@AnnA-jd4xm I never said weird, the kids that are having children need to know how much finance they need and it all goes back onto the parents too. They can support them all they want but someday soon with minds like that they’ll end up having more and do you think the parents are proud of their choices? They weren’t thrilled if you watched it.
I am not surprised the twin sister feels as she does. Charlotte over here acting like she is on top of everything, a supermum and a education/career woman and things are great, all while oblivious that her actions have imposed huge negative changes on her family. The parents moving the boyfriend into their teen daughters bedroom gave a big old green light to the other daughters. Not telling the twin because she had moved on to her bigger and better life was cruel.
I don’t think she’s oblivious, she talks about the guilt she feels, but at the end of the day there’s nothing she can do about it. She legally can’t move out, can’t get a job to pay her way, can do nothing but get through her schooling until she’s old enough to work.
What a relief that this is not just an underage couple who are clueless. Thank goodness they are mature enough to realise they need to change. OMG I never thought I would hear this type of thing. Go on. young couple, you have embraced it this far, there may be blips along the way, but you can get qualified and survive
These kids don't realize how they could have so much more enjoyable times when they're young. If they don't have kids. I don't know why they're in such a hurry to grow up. Being a grown up isn't all that much fun. It's responsibility and work and going to work
I agree , for being teen parents they are really taking responsibility. Alot of teens would drop out of school , expect their parents to take care of the baby .
. Still living with mom and dad ? What do you expect? They are 14-15. Don't have a mortgage? They are under age , they can't sign a contract like that . The boyfriend is trying to find a job. I think your missing the point Rebecca.
They’re both such little girls. Their voices sounds so young and tiny. I don’t know. I just feel bad that they don’t have more opportunity to grow before they become parents. I mean I was 19 when my first child was born, but I was married and it was still difficult.
It is pretty sad that they are sexually active at these young ages, much less not using protection when you can get several different methods of birth control for free
Children are NOT suppose to have babies!!! At age 14 the last thing I thought about was sex, in fact I had no clue about sex, and I was not even at puberty then. AND my parents would have killed me. I cannot imagine being slightly responsible for another human being when I was so immature. At 14 I never even considered dating. When I was growing up, my parents both always knew where I was and what I was doing, we couldn't even sneak around.
I HATE the term "fell pregnant". Nope! That's not how it works. Why in Heaven's name are little girls sexually active at 12 or 13 years old? Their parents don't know where they are?They're so emotionally immature (and that includes the parents). It kills me when a little mother demands that teen father BETTER get a job to support their family when he's likely too young for a driving license. I was also a late bloomer. I didn't have a p€r!od until almost 16. I had wonderful boy best friends, but when my next door neighbor, my age, came over to invite me to a school dance, 8th grade, I locked myself in the bathroom for two hours. Looking back, I feel sorry for him, for my behavior. I just was not ready for the girl/boy thing unless it meant playing kick ball in our cul-de-sac. Growing up too fast and bringing a sweet life into the world before you're ready isn't really fair to the baby. Who can have a kid first should never be a competition. jmo
Well that was you. Although we were having sex at 14 back in the 70s and 80s, we didn't want kids. We wanted our freedom & we didn't want our parents to raise any of our kids. We had access to birth control & other choices without parent consent.
that's all well and good for you when you were in your early teens but for the ones featured in this documentary, they're doing extremely well!hind sight is a great thing but at least they're trying to do best by an unplanned surprise baby!
What a bleak existence though I have to say that Charlotte and her partner seem mature despite their young years and are doing better than expected in raising their baby. Allanah will no doubt regret the decision she made to get pregnant but wishing them all well.
I would rearrange the house. Parents in 1 room, Charlotte, Kenzi & her boyfriend in one room, the 2 other girls would have to share a bedroom. Well i guess that's out bc now she's pregnant. After her twin got pregnant and gave birth I would have put her sister on birth control. The parents were the real troopers just too bad they didn't drill into their girls' heads about having safe sex before and giving them the attention they needed prior. Keeping a close eye on who their friends are and who they are dating. Lewis was a good father whether teenage or not he worked hard for his baby and took care of him and the mom. Proud of them
You didn’t use anything to prevent pregnancy. Irresponsible child raising a child. Parents should be putting their daughters on birth control and teaching them about getting pregnant.
Absolutely! A lot of teenage girls have poor choice in men too, often times they’ll grow apart and wonder what on earth they saw in them 😆 I know I did.
It's a sucky situation, but I'm glad the teens have such support parents. I don't understand parents who kick out their pregnant teens because then they're kicking out their grandbabies as well
I suspect some parents think it will scare their daughter into not keeping the baby. That said, it is usually out of shame, and / or not wanting to raise their soon-to-be grandchild.
Her sister so clearly chose to get pregnant on purpose, it’s sad that she felt so starved of attention that she resorted to that, especially after seeing the sacrifices her parents had already made for Charlotte.
Or she's unstable
No child should ever have to raise another, but the child put herself in a situation where that was clearly a risk. Does not really matter why she had a child and if I'm honest if it was for attention that's worse.
I know its ridiculous but expected given how young she is

Its not their responsibility… they chose to do Adult activities so they need to face thr adults consequences‼️
@@ThePonyaS if they were 16/17 then yes butt hey were 14 and very much young children. it's disappointing and misogynistic that is parents feel their responsibility in this is less.
@@ThePonyaSthat’s not how it works.
These aren’t even older teens, they are JUST teenagers. They can’t possibly grasps what they are doing.
@@ThePonyaS And of their parents the same can be said... You are still responsible for your kids until they are legal adults... Just because they got a baby doesn't mean the parents can just dump their son at other peoples house and not support him in any way possible. If they can't bother to take care of their son's needs even if it's a small amount of money that pays for his housing needs then they shouldn't have gotten a kid either. It's not the girl's parents responsibility to take care of him. They should all take responsibility.
I think the sister was just desperate to bond with her twin. She got pregnant on purpose because she didn’t want her sister to leave her behind
There are two twins on TH-cam, the Pressley Girls who did this over the past two years. They're adults but very immature, small town and very dependent on their parents. The dominant twin got married and made a big fuss about it. She's very fake and super Christian and needy for attention. Her twin is more laid back and she ended up getting pregnant. Her boyfriend declined to marry her so she had the baby on her own. Her sister immediately anmounced that she was pregnant too and kept trying to get their followers to focus on her and her pregnancy even though she was months behind on her due date compared with her twin. The laid back twin had her baby and didn't want him to be on camera. The dominant twin kept holding her pregnant belly in every photo, did a video on her labor experience and shows her baby 24/7. Identical twins definitely can have more of a sibling rivalry than other siblings depending on how dominant one twin might be.
@@gnostic268 It is not just rivalry, it is sometimes that one copies the other because they look up to them, and see them as a leader.
She didn't like the attention her sister was getting
@@gnostic268¾f😊
As a twin myself, you grow up experiencing every part of life together. If my sister would have gotten pregnant in highschool it would have felt like our identical path was splitting too soon. We are always in everything together. I don’t think I would have copied her if I was in that situation but I could see why many would want to as twins. I wouldn’t want to be separate

Overall, this seems like such a nice family making the best of a difficult situation. The mum and dad deserve a lot of credit for supporting their daughters. ❤
Maybe if the parents weren’t quite so laid back their other daughter would of thought twice before deciding it was a good idea to get pregnant also! Sleeping on a mattress on the living room floor to accommodate their daughter’s babies and boyfriends is unfair and their children are taking full advantage of them.
I mean, but as a parent you dont have a choice but to support them. Im glad i only have a son, i wont be having any pregnant kids in my house. Ive already told him whats it gonna be like if he is going to get someone pregnant while underaged, and he definetly does not wanna go there. You have to be on top of these kinds of things, its not enough to just teach them about safe sex, but you also gotta make them realise just how much they would have to sacrifice if they end up in that situation, at that time, its already too late to regret and change youre mind. Why do it while youre still a kid, when you can do it later on with someone you absolutely want to do it with, and have all the proper means and tools. As parents, we just have to make them understand that, and keep reminding them about it.

The twin sister got pregnant on purpose I just know it
Why do u think on purpose
@@ambermarielewis9353 well I commented that before I heard the mother say she thinks she did it on purpose to so im not the only one who thinks it lol but I think it because she saw her twin with her baby and ever since she got pregnant it pushed them apart in the sisters eyes so I think she did it thinking it bring them closer again but didn’t and she even kinda said that but when her sister called her stupid for getting pregnant she was surprised because she went threw it and thought she would support her so I just really think she did it on purpose to bond with her twin more and whatever other reasons the dad thinks it could be for attention as well
@@Emily-uq3toso you think she did it to make them closer and not because she was being completely ignored by everyone cause her sister had a child?

@@ami.sabbath Yeah, giving birth at that age is physically straining on the body, but most families don't want their kids to do that because of fear of dishonor to the family.
I like how the babies parents undertake the parenting before & after school & the grandparents do the caring only when they’re at school. I think the grandfather still looks in shock. Good luck to them & I hope the undertake further studies to support their family.

Trusting children that age with sex/reproduction/contraception etc is just silly ...watching these girls... they're babies!!
I’m more concerned that girls and boys have a full understanding of contraception options and parents encourage it. I don’t mean encourage sex, but preventing pregnancy.
@@jcny11 I agree. My daughter was busy studying for exams at the twins age. She and I had great discussions before her periods even started. Having sex was a no-no at such a young age. She was confident enough to get her priorities right, because she wanted to have a career and travel. I saw it as my responsibility to give her the strength and desire to put herself first.
In all fairness I completely agree. I grew up in a ‘don’t discuss sex’ kinda household and started having sex at 13, researching & accessing contraception all by myself. Now I’m 20 and I see 13 year old girls that actually blows my mind. I hope to do better to educate my future children because that was incredibly risky & could’ve gone so badly lmao

*before u say anything, i am speaking from my own personal perspective, I have a sister who got pregnant at the age of 15-16.
I feel for the poor parents. The 2nd daughter getting pregnant was totally selfish. She could have getting attention in other ways.
See I'm not so sure. I think it's a shame that the first twin thinks she's entitled to *all* extra resources i.e mum's babysitting during the day, emergency expenses for baby, mum or dad, help+time+attention from parents to make sure life works for everyone involved, etc.. Allanah naturally is going to be very attached to the idea of wanting to go through the cycles of life by her sister's side. All the resentment coming from everybody is pretty unfair. Plus, everyone is accusing her of *trying* to get pregnant when for all we know Charlotte and Lewis are so smitten with each other that they could've been romantically reckless themselves, and are just white lying saying that the condom "split".

The parents were surprised that the twin sister got pregnant as well, when she wanted a closer bond with her twin.... and was not getting much attention. LOL
Her bond with her whole family and boyfriend at the time all went downhill as soon as she decided to keep the baby
she got pregnant on purpose and was clearly proud if you watch her body language and her interactions with the family. she couldn’t handle the fact that her sister is a mother and doesn’t have time for her anymore, her parents were put in a situation where they had to break their backs to help support a teen couple with a baby, if the sister can’t cope and understand that then thats her problem. personally i think she’s an immature brat, her plan backfired on her and you can see her vibe change after she mentioned she wasn’t together with her boyfriend anymore. its complete and utter bullshit honestly
The grand parents are wonderful and supportive.❤
Why are these children having sex?? 🤯just because you have the physical ability, does not mean you have the maturity to deal with the consequences….
Exactly urghh i am soo irritated!! Im literally 17 and I don't even have that level of maturity.
I can assure you now Charlotte does give off a vibe as if she’s mature enough and has the ability to look after her child which you obviously saw , honestly I’m proud of her handling all this, especially while she was very determined to get good grades AS well as looking after a literal human being, personally she pulled off great as a 15 year old.
@@Itsgrace-xoits great she have the maturity to take care of the baby, but did she think of the possiblity of being pregnant when having sex at 14?? And its entire pros and cons?? It seems quite stupid to be having sex before being older (eg 18+yr as you may get a full grasp on being a parent and have more time and skills) considering many cons can come for underaged pregnancies such as the mothers dying before or during childbirth, the chance of getting abandoned by parents (thank god she wasnt), the child needs attention so it takes away studying time which can cause troubles for school, not having enough money so it forces people especially the parents to use up their savings and forcing them to work way harder just to support you (which i think is very inconsiderate) and many more. Crazy how children think its ok to have sex🤦 jesus!
@@Gardeningismypassion833 exactly!
Charlotte and her partner are better parents then some older people, she still wants an education and her and Lewis are together supporting the baby, but I think Alanagh got pregnant because she felt left out, and plus her and her sister are twins so its quite common..

i'm a 2007 born gen z, but i was unpriviliaged as my parents never gave me the password to the wifi for 24/7 internet access until it corona.
anyways, i survived all elementary school and middle school without knowing what sex is. because students even the most daring ones don't talk about the topic there. of course we learnt about the reproductive system, but most of us never knew how the egg and the sperm got together in the same place.
however, as soon as i was on the internet free to search anything, i started reading memes on instagram, watching meme/ reddit channels on youtube and watching comedy/romance movies (on a free online website that doesn't show the rating. and tho the jokes there were hilarious, most of them were referencing sex. and well, my curiosity got the best of me and i started reading the BTS fanfics or other fanfics that were rampant on Wattpad. i always hated them tbh because i knew they contained explicit material, and that's why i resorted to read them.
anyways, i was disgusted and depressed for about a year after learning what sex was. and i was already 15 at the time (tbh i was 14 when i first heard about the jokes). i have no idea how you handled it. but i hope that you overcame it.

Well you don't hear about the teens whose condoms were successful 😂
they’re actually very thin and are only about 75% accurate IF USED CORRECTLY! so it’s not un-normal, it’s actually very normal.
They probably put the condom on wrong or used the wrong size. I've had a condom split before and I've been using them correctly for years, things can just go wrong, unfortunately.
It’s usually a lie. There’s some embarrassment in saying you did it unprotected knowing the consequences.

I really do understand why she didn’t tell her sister, I’m a twin and couldn’t even tell my twin identical sister that I got my period, it’s like a feeling where they would judge you cause you’ve been so close all your life so it’s not like a friend who will be supportive all the time you know?

I had a patient a while back who has their first child at 15. They were 47 and their daughter was 32. Not much difference at that age. They looked like two friends or sisters.i did a double take when I first saw her daughter’s age.
Mom saying "you don't need to tell her reality " boom there's the problem. Mom trying to shield her daughters from the truth.
Our oldest brother had a baby at 15. It was great birth control for my twin brother and myself 😂 I absolutely LOVED helping care for and raising my nephew, but it taught me the reality of having a baby, toddler, child, and teen! I didn't have my child until I was in my 20s, my twin brother didn't have his until he was in his early 30s. To bad the twins couldn't have been more involved with each other. Maybe the first one was to worried about the baby thinking her twin was the mom? Idk, it's better when the whole family is involved. The 2nd twin probably felt completely lost to her twin suddenly having a live in boyfriend and baby. It's extremely hard to start going your separate ways as adults, so I can't imagine how that would feel at such a young age.
It’s nice to see the parents so supportive, but at the same time, they are to lenient with their rules by allowing boyfriends at such tender young ages.
Not only allowing boyfriends, allowing them to use birth control and have sex as long as it's "safe." Absolutely sickening
Allowed is not the right word they were simply aware.
This could happen to anyone at any time. Even fully grown adult have accident. That's why they tell u to always use 2 forms of contraceptive. And abstinence is the only sour way to prevent pregnancy. School also had to abandon strict abstinence expectations for safe sex lessons bc they realize that teens are going to have sex either way. And when teaching abstinence over safe sex was the highest rate of teen pregnancy.
But go ahead and throw stones in your glass castle. Just because u not allowing your child to date doesn't mean they're not, it just means u don't know about it.
do you know teens? 'allowing boyfriends' unless they are literally right next to them every second of the day the WILL have boyfriends and they WILL have s... In the school toilet if they have to but they will.
They are a lovely little family!
Don't lament too much about 'years of freedom missed'. (You never know what disaster could have come from running a little wild anyway.) Look what you would have missed out on with that beautiful baby. You may not have a house of your own - but you all have a beautiful house to live in. Thank you, grandparents.
When baby is grown believe me life isn't over. You will have had baby and now you can have your peace together.
Best of luck and best wishes.
More vigilance was required here . The parents should have been more vigilant. Apparently they are no longer together. Too much . Too young . Having children is for adults . Not for children .
There should have been better education for both children, and when the girl started dating her parents should have been given birth control of some kind to her, and the boy should have been given condoms
Ok it's to late for lecture lol
Every kid gets told what not to do, they were also taught about protection. If you are strict you will raise sneaky kids remember that. They will try it if they want to, you just need to parent your hardest and support your kids. Don’t support teen pregnancy but support pregnant teens!
Actually their very much so together. ❤
more vigilance ? How do you propose they keep eyes on her 24/7?
Its sad that babys are having babys but its great to see how their parents are not throwing them out Hope all goes well for both girls ❤
This is quite old I believe. I’m a young parent and it’s virtually non existent in my area. It’s quite isolating.
you wouldnt be here if it wasnt for teen pregnancy
@@potato1084 I wish you all the best. I was in my 20s, still considered very young, and I was completely overwhelmed
I can't imagine going through all the trials of teenage hood with hormones, and then adding pregnancy on top. It must be unbelievabley difficult. Charlotte is certainly putting on a brave face. The face that the dad moved in to help care for the baby is lovely too. I don't know how old this episode is it looks like the 2000s but I hope they look back and know that they did the best for there child
she is so so young and little. Wow. I can't even begin to imagine how hard this was
Kenzie has loving parents. So good that the dad also helps with it, a lot of teenager dads would run away. Lovely couple
Aww the little sister is so mature for her age. Love that for her❤
chances are she will follow suit with an underage pregnancy🤔
Yup she’ll be pregnant in just a few years too when each of the twin girls are on their second and third
THEY CAN MANAGE IT and they are managing it.. 😊 kudos to them 👏
the grandparents are such sweethearts
If the father owns a building company why doesnt he give the young lad a job
When a 14 year old gets pregnant there’s ALWAYS something wrong.
not always
@@mayafonk8208 Absolutely always. Lack of attention and sex education from parents for a start. 14 is middle school aged. Not even high-school.
Every day of my live I'm grateful my mother did the right thing and took me to a clinic to have a termination procedure when I was impregnated at age 14. I was a child. These are children. They were playing at being adults and now they're being forced to become them. It's a sad shame.
Unless you were raped, you weren't impregnated. You were a willful participant in conceiving a child which your mother helped terminate.
@@chatisawasteoftime a female has to be impregnated in order to give birth, consensual or otherwise.
@chatisawasteoftime impregnated is still a correct word. Did she get pregnant? Yes, ergo, she was impregnated.
@@skefsongames The connotation is that she was a passive or unwilling participant, which she wasn't, unless she was raped.
@@chatisawasteoftime How do you know she wasn't r*ped? A 14 year old *cannot* consent, so cannot be a willing participant
So lucky they have supportive people around.
My oldest son was born when i had just turned 18, didn't want to tell my parents either.
I did my best, but was very difficult.
Nice to see your parents are there to support you guys ❤❤
Haha I love the mom “ glass of wine please “. So understandable lol
Her way coping every night 😂😂😂
Look at this! Why are kids having kids and they think they are more grown and doing just fine. What about their parents? They literally sleep on the floor in their living room in their own house. They aren’t smart either it’s so hard out in this world and most children aren’t protected these days it’s so freaking sad. Get a job,get an education, make money to financially protect you and don’t sleep around if you aren’t aware or accept the consequences. Make smarter choices!
How are they not smart? they made sacrifices so their kids can have bedrooms. what's weird about that?
@@AnnA-jd4xm I never said weird, the kids that are having children need to know how much finance they need and it all goes back onto the parents too. They can support them all they want but someday soon with minds like that they’ll end up having more and do you think the parents are proud of their choices? They weren’t thrilled if you watched it.
Being paid 3 pounds an hour is insane... I've seen older people treating the whole situation so much worse. I wish them alot of luck!
Imagine having 2 teenage daughters that are both mothers before 16 years old absolutely INSANE!!!!!
I am not surprised the twin sister feels as she does. Charlotte over here acting like she is on top of everything, a supermum and a education/career woman and things are great, all while oblivious that her actions have imposed huge negative changes on her family. The parents moving the boyfriend into their teen daughters bedroom gave a big old green light to the other daughters. Not telling the twin because she had moved on to her bigger and better life was cruel.
I don’t think she’s oblivious, she talks about the guilt she feels, but at the end of the day there’s nothing she can do about it. She legally can’t move out, can’t get a job to pay her way, can do nothing but get through her schooling until she’s old enough to work.
What a relief that this is not just an underage couple who are clueless. Thank goodness they are mature enough to realise they need to change. OMG I never thought I would hear this type of thing. Go on. young couple, you have embraced it this far, there may be blips along the way, but you can get qualified and survive
These kids don't realize how they could have so much more enjoyable times when they're young. If they don't have kids. I don't know why they're in such a hurry to grow up. Being a grown up isn't all that much fun. It's responsibility and work and going to work
Lewis is very mature for a 15 year old boy. I feel so sad for Allanah.
All things considered, they're a really lovely and mature couple. God bless them and their family. 🌻
How maturely is still living with Mum and Dad? Don't pay bills. they don't have a mortgage or a job . Underage s*x does not make you mature
@@rebeccaseal4182 They are being mature with actually stepping up as parents.
I agree , for being teen parents they are really taking responsibility. Alot of teens would drop out of school , expect their parents to take care of the baby .
. Still living with mom and dad ? What do you expect? They are 14-15.
Don't have a mortgage? They are under age , they can't sign a contract like that . The boyfriend is trying to find a job. I think your missing the point Rebecca.
They really are
What absolute wonderful parents these are. All these children are very lucky to have such caring understanding parents. All the best for the future 😊
26:19 dad. The "chasity belt" are the values and self esteem you instill in your children
Charlotte and Lewis should be so proud of themselves ❤
They’re both such little girls. Their voices sounds so young and tiny. I don’t know. I just feel bad that they don’t have more opportunity to grow before they become parents. I mean I was 19 when my first child was born, but I was married and it was still difficult.
One way to cut down on the money spent on nappies is to use the reusable ones. You would be helping the environment as well. ❤️
It is pretty sad that they are sexually active at these young ages, much less not using protection when you can get several different methods of birth control for free
He said they did use a condom but it split
Where are Lewis's parents in all of this?!
I need an update, those babies are the same age now as the girls are in this video!
Children are NOT suppose to have babies!!! At age 14 the last thing I thought about was sex, in fact I had no clue about sex, and I was not even at puberty then. AND my parents would have killed me. I cannot imagine being slightly responsible for another human being when I was so immature. At 14 I never even considered dating. When I was growing up, my parents both always knew where I was and what I was doing, we couldn't even sneak around.
I HATE the term "fell pregnant". Nope! That's not how it works. Why in Heaven's name are little girls sexually active at 12 or 13 years old? Their parents don't know where they are?They're so emotionally immature (and that includes the parents). It kills me when a little mother demands that teen father BETTER get a job to support their family when he's likely too young for a driving license. I was also a late bloomer. I didn't have a p€r!od until almost 16. I had wonderful boy best friends, but when my next door neighbor, my age, came over to invite me to a school dance, 8th grade, I locked myself in the bathroom for two hours. Looking back, I feel sorry for him, for my behavior. I just was not ready for the girl/boy thing unless it meant playing kick ball in our cul-de-sac. Growing up too fast and bringing a sweet life into the world before you're ready isn't really fair to the baby. Who can have a kid first should never be a competition. jmo
I agree with you and felt the same way at 14; children having babies. Ridiculous!
Well that was you. Although we were having sex at 14 back in the 70s and 80s, we didn't want kids. We wanted our freedom & we didn't want our parents to raise any of our kids.
We had access to birth control & other choices without parent consent.
that's all well and good for you when you were in your early teens but for the ones featured in this documentary, they're doing extremely well!hind sight is a great thing but at least they're trying to do best by an unplanned surprise baby!
I started puberty at 10
What a bleak existence though I have to say that Charlotte and her partner seem mature despite their young years and are doing better than expected in raising their baby. Allanah will no doubt regret the decision she made to get pregnant but wishing them all well.
I would rearrange the house. Parents in 1 room, Charlotte, Kenzi & her boyfriend in one room, the 2 other girls would have to share a bedroom. Well i guess that's out bc now she's pregnant. After her twin got pregnant and gave birth I would have put her sister on birth control. The parents were the real troopers just too bad they didn't drill into their girls' heads about having safe sex before and giving them the attention they needed prior. Keeping a close eye on who their friends are and who they are dating. Lewis was a good father whether teenage or not he worked hard for his baby and took care of him and the mom. Proud of them
I'd put the teen family in the living room and give the parents back their master suite.
But then the SECOND teen family was about to appear, so....
Charlotte and Lewis are great parents. I hope they make it in life
As an American who LOVES the show, Eastenders, I immediately recognized Natalie Cassidy doing the voiceover.
With ner nasal voice 😂😂😂
I would love an 2024 update on this?!!! This had to have been filmed in the early 2000's UPDATE!!!!
You didn’t use anything to prevent pregnancy. Irresponsible child raising a child. Parents should be putting their daughters on birth control and teaching them about getting pregnant.
Absolutely! A lot of teenage girls have poor choice in men too, often times they’ll grow apart and wonder what on earth they saw in them 😆 I know I did.
That’s the problem if they are children why do they need to be on birth control??
@@aminaosman6977 Because they are not children? They are teenagers and a lot of teenagers have sex.
It's a sucky situation, but I'm glad the teens have such support parents. I don't understand parents who kick out their pregnant teens because then they're kicking out their grandbabies as well
Enablers I think they’re called, two of them pregnant is beyond disgusting.
I suspect some parents think it will scare their daughter into not keeping the baby. That said, it is usually out of shame, and / or not wanting to raise their soon-to-be grandchild.
I would not kick my teen out but let’s just say if I have a daughter, she’s going on birth control summer between eighth and ninth grade
Because 9/10 times supporting the teen has a "I'm pregnant again" 2 months after giving birth or even worse inspired the others to do the same
