Celebs Who Had Babies When They Were Just Teens

Thanks to T.I. and Tiny: The Family Hustle, the reality show about rapper T.I., fans know that the celeb has several children. What many don't realize, however, is how young T.I. was when he had his first kid. T.I.'s ex girlfriend, LaShon Thompson, was in her 20s when she gave birth to their son, Messiah. At the time, T.I. was a couple years younger, becoming a father at the age of 19.

T.I. told People in 2006 that he's a hands-on parent who is involved in his kids' lives. Raised by his grandparents, the hip-hop artist had a rough childhood, and said he was happy to give his kids a better life than the one he had. "I stole because I couldn't afford to get it," said T.I. "But they can."

In an interview with XXL, T.I. revealed that learning how to be a parent was tough for him. "It's something that you never really master," he said, "so you just have to be committed to it, man. You have to be committed to it and passionate about it."
