I’m a mum-of-two at 24 – I had my first baby at 14 and trolls say it’s vile I became a mum so young but I don't care | The Sun

A WOMAN has revealed that she is a mum-of-two at the age of 24.

Joan Pelletier, a young mother, from Canada, explained that she had her first baby at just 14-years-old.



Now, ten years later, she has given birth to her second child.

And while nasty trolls say it’s “vile” that Joan had her first child so young, she insisted that she won’t let the cruel comments get her down.

Posting on social media, Joan shared a clip of her two children – her oldest daughter holding her youngest little girl.

In the sweet video, we saw the soul sisters laughing together, clearly showing their close bond.

But social media users were divided at the clip – while some thought it was heart-warming, not everyone was so positive.

One user wrote: “This is so cute.” 

A second agreed: “Beautiful.”

Another shared: “Omg you really said copy and paste eh! This is so sweet.” 

Whilst someone else shared: “Children often follow their parents footsteps. If you could be a granny in just 4 years, it doesn't seem possible, she is your twin.”

To this, Joan replied: “She is right. My mom had a baby at 14 as well, but the world is so much different now. 

“All we can do now is educate our daughters, which was something I was never taught.

“I was just told what not to do but I wouldn’t change it for the world.”

At the same time, many trolls shared their thoughts on teenage pregnancy. 

One person said: “14 nah that’s vile.”

Another added: “14 you’re joking man, that’s so bad.”

A third commented: “Can we just not forget that you were just a child!!! Stop normalising this. A child giving birth to another child!!”

Meanwhile, one user simply said: “Tf [the f**k].”
