    I think the relationship would be very much the same between the baby and your DD's friend as the relationship between a family who use a known donor and the donor is. Maybe have a look into some literature regarding Known Donation and Rainbow Parenting. I am a young mum. I had my first baby at 20. I dont thing age really has anything to do with preparedness for parenting, I think maturity is more important.

    My parents wanted me to be established in a career before having children. Personally I had no idea what I wanted to do with the rest of my life and having children has helped me find direction. I am preparing to apply for Uni now that I know what I want to do. Maybe she is not ready for a lifelong career decision yet.
