Innocence

Sometime last week, we (13.5yo cousin, 9.5yo cousin & me) were watching the idiot box when Zoey101 came on.

I suddenly remembered reading something somewhere lead actress, Jamie Lynn Spears, so I started dishing it out to my 13.5yo cousin. The younger one heard & a question soon followed. It just slipped out when I answered him "how can life be normal after you have a baby?" (especially in a teenager's case!).
He gave a puzzled look & said "I don't understand how can a 16/17yo be married already.."
That was followed by a silence.

Emm.. How do you even tell a 9.5yo that it's not neccessary that one would be pregnant only if you are married?
I rest my case. It's not my job to answer that question anyway...
