Full title: In 1989, this family was featured in Guinness World Records as the most living generations ever in a family: Augusta Bunge(109),daughter(89),granddaughter(70),great-granddaughter(52),great-great granddaughter(33),great-great-great-granddaughter(15) and great-great-great-great-grandson(1 month).
I don’t know, it seems pretty normal all the way up until the 15 year old daughter having a kid.
Even 18 and 19yo are a bit offputing to me at least. The 15yo is definitely the worst
You’re talking about a person born in 1880. It’s silly to try to use modern dating rules and apply it back so far. They also have to be young to achieve this sort of record.
“Modern dating rules”
Nah, sex/marriage before your twenties wasn’t even a thing in the Middle Ages. It’s historically pretty abnormal, teenage girls don’t have the bodies to safely carry children.
We’re talking about a person who gave birth in 1989…
No, talking about the 15 year old girl in the picture who has a one month old baby there in 1989. Things were not different back then. Knocking up a 14y/o in 1988 was still a crime, even if the dude doing it was 14 also. Which, you know he wasn’t.
I don’t know of any place in America that has criminalized a 14-year-old sleeping with a 14-year-old.
As far as I’m aware, most states have Romeo and Juliet laws, so like as long as they are less than two years apart, then it’s not a crime either.
Perhaps you should check again. Many states do have “Romeo and Juliet” laws, but not most. Not even half.

If you’re under the age of consent, then consent cannot be granted, even if both parties claim to be willing. Of course, most states will not enforce this under most circumstances where it’s just a couple kids fooling around, but it is still illegal.
The first couple sure. But all the others?
I’m not arguing this is how it should or shouldn’t be, but you understand that things used to be different?

So… a 14yo in 1974? Yeah… I’m gonna still say that’s a bit much.
It’s 1988 even, seeing as the picture is dated 1989.
Yeah, I don’t know why I subtracted her age from the date. My brain is broken.
She would have been 14 in 1988.
