I would tell them about: An old friend's mother told me that when she had her first child they were so poor that he had to sleep in a draw. They were young. They are now grandparents, still together and weathly. Another teenaged mother I know (now also a grandmother and wealthy) said that her and her baby son lived in moldy cold old cottages etc. Her adult children are professionals and are good people. She was a teenager and was poor but she did her best and is now a wonderful giving grandmother.
