    Awe,

    Let 'em have some fun! Irene is a nice enough name, too long out of fashion.

    Personally I think it is a real tribute to Mother Nature and, well... just plain motherhood.

    Is anyone else slightly disturbed by the fact that daddy is 35 and the new mom is just 18?

        Same age as Ann Dunham when she had her baby. What's the problem?

          Not as bad as that 50-year-old actor that married a 16-year-old recently!

            I was thinking the same thing.  I had to re-read that part thinking they had confused something in the article.  I can't believe of all the births that happened as they report they had to chose a teen pregnancy with a 35 yr old man.
