While, I'd agree that having babies earlier is better for health and energy reasons, I do remember reading articles that women who become mothers before the age of 17 are at more risk (health-wise) than women in their early twenties. I think it was something like this (http://www.infoforhealth.org/pr/j41/j41chap2_3.shtml) article, but I'm not sure whether it's a reputable source. I'm a bit wary of the random Indian reference in there.
