OK well I'm 17 years old and I'm a teen parent. I'm very responsible with everything that comes along with having a child. There are woman I've seen who are well into there 20's and 30's who don't give a crap and are very irresponsible with their children. so when you ask a question like that please be sure not to put teen parents all in one group.

A: 2

It is true that you should not assume that all individuals of a particular grouping can all be fairly assessed by the same social standards. Teen parenting is only irresponsible if like all other forms of parenting the parents do not have the financial, emotional and physical ability to competently cater to the needs of the child.

Are the teens parents financially responsible for the baby if the teen lives with them?

Parents are responsible for their kids, period. In the unfortunate situation of a teen parent, it is that teen parent's responsibility to recognize that they are likely in over their head and to take whatever help they can get. They are not owed this help. They should ask with humility and gratitude. The grandparents/parents of the teen are likely to want to help, since they don't want to see their grandkid suffer (and they are likely feeling some guilt about the whole situation, themselves). But always remember, the grandparents are the help. It is the parent who bears the responsibility... for everything. The fact that they may be "irresponsible" only means that they are responsible for seeking support.
