Max Well,

You didn’t read your reference very closely. Those births were to teens who were married at the time the child was born, not necessarily at the time the child was conceived! “Shotgun weddings” were very common back then. And the rate of teen births in 2006 was 42.5 births per 1,000, less than half the rate of 1957.
