I also heard there is a risk of having a baby when you are young. I thought between the ages of 18-21 you have more chance getting a down syndrome child :S As well as getting more chance of this when you are older.
Therefore it's best to have kids in your 20's/30's!

I don't think that's true. The main risk with teenagers giving birth is that the girls hips aren't wide enough for a natural childbirth. I think it's more common for babies to be born premature as well.
