saying 'it's like the Romeo and Juliet story'
US House candidate Anthony Bouchard had a relationship with and impregnated a 14-year old girl when he was 18

DRAMA!
"So, bottom line, it's a story when I was young, two teenagers, girl gets pregnant," he said in the Facebook Live video. "You've heard those stories before. She was a little younger than me, so it's like the Romeo and Juliet story."
Bouchard told the Star-Tribune he married the girl when she was 15 and he was 19. At the time, they were both living in Florida.
The two were legally able to get married at the time because Florida law stated that people could marry at any age with a judge's approval if a pregnancy was involved and a parent consented. They got divorced approximately three years later.
"A lot of pressure. Pressure to abort a baby. I got to tell you. I wasn't going to do it, and neither was she," he said. "And there was pressure to have her banished from their family. Just pressure. Pressure to go hide somewhere. And the only thing I could see as the right thing to do was to get married and take care of him."
Bouchard’s ex-wife killed herself when she was 20, he said. Online records list a woman with her name as being buried at a Jacksonville, Florida, cemetery in 1990. The Star-Tribune is choosing not to identify her.
“She had problems in another relationship. Her dad had committed suicide,” Bouchard said in the video.
After his ex-wife died, Bouchard said he continued to raise the couple's son, whom he briefly references in the video.
“Sadly, he's made some wrong choices in his life," he said. "He's almost become my estranged son. Some of the things that he's got going on his life, I certainly don't approve of them. But I'm not going to abandon him. I still love him. Just like when he was born.”

As an adult, he sexually preyed on a fourteen year old and got her pregnant. She was, from the sound of it, essentially forced to marry him. Then she killed herself. What a horrible story.

I love how he says - 2 teenagers in love and that she was 'a little younger than me'.
He was technically an adult and either a senior in high school or graduated. She was 14 and either in 8th grade or a freshman in high school. That's a massive difference.
Take a high school senior and an 8th grader today and put them in a room. There's very little in common and the age difference is like night and day.
And I want the details about his son - we need to interview this kid.

When a politician's young wife kills herself less than two years into the marriage and his offspring doesn't want to have anything to do with him, you know that's not the guy you want in Congress. There are enough crazy GQP clowns there already.

Teenagers have sex. Sometimes their sexual partner is 3 or 4 years older/younger than them. It happens all the time, every day, it has since the dawn of mankind. It’s happening as we speak, probably down the street from you right now. Everyone knows it. And the vast, vast majority of the girls DON’T end up committing suicide.
This guy is obviously scum, and the girl’s story is sad, but anyone pretending to be shocked to learn that teenagers have sex (almost ALL of them, in fact) and that often the sex results in pregnancy, needs to STFU. Quit pretending to be Puritanical paragons of virtue.
Teens fuck each other. It’s a fact of life. Good luck stopping them.

About half of teenagers are sexually active. Of those, a certain percentage use birth control.
The kids who aren’t sexually active and the group who practice birth control tend to be from supportive families with educated parents.
So it really is a certain segment of society that’s responsible for these very young teen births.

These aren't just 2 teenagers fucking who are similar in age. And no, teenagers don't usually 'fuck upwards' 3 to 4 years older than them on a regular basis. Where'd you pull that shit out of your ass?
He was 18 and had no business looking at or hanging out with a 14 year old and you know it.

Picture an 18 year old being exposed for having sex with and impregnating a 14 year old today. This lurid tale is compounded by the fact that the girl-turned-woman killed herself less than a decade after this happened; oh, and by the son turning out troubled.

What I actually wrote:

There are sexual couplings that occur between a teens whose age difference is 3 or 4 years. It sounds like a weird mismatch, and I personally wouldn’t do it, and never did, but I knew lots of such couplings when I was in high school. Freshman girls dating senior boys. And 8th grade girl dating a boy in high school. Some of them got pregnant and had the kid, some had abortions. They weren’t *the norm*, but they weren’t one-in-a-million, either. I’d say most common was a 2-year age gap. One of my female friends was 15 when she got her 21-year-old boyfriend to buy us a few cases of beer for a party we had “in the woods” one Saturday night.

He later told the Casper Star-Tribune that they married when he was 19 and the girl was 15, and the girl eventually gave birth to their son. Bouchard said the couple divorced after three years of marriage, and she died by suicide in 1990 at age 20.

Yes teens have sex, but notice it's males 4, 5, or more years older fucking around with young teen girls (that probably got their period the same year of being preyed on.) In this case, she probably had her life ruined by being a 15 yr old mom by this ADULT MAN, who probably also promised the world, only to ditch out.
Then this prick has the gaul to say he "did the right thing". Nope, keeping your dick out of a middle school girl would've been the right thing, or afterwards, not ditching out on her in 3 years would've been another right thing. He's probably a liar about pressure for an abortion to be some right wing martyr, when an abortion was the only right thing that could've happened -- another story of being "probirth" but not caring about the actual baby.
The suicide just says everything about what happened there. How damn sad.

If she was having sex and a baby at 14 she clearly had some resulting trauma she didn't deal with, either from him and the early marriage or elsewhere. She'd be known as the pregnant girl at school and dealing with a baby that she should have put up for adoption rather than being a teenager and focusing on schoolwork.
