At maternal age 20 to 24, the probability is one in 1562; at age 35 to 39 the probability is one in 214, and above age 45 the probability is one in 19. While it's possible the daughter is the mother, the odds are it's Palin herself. Very young mothers can also have trisomy 21 babies. The distribution spikes at both ends of childbearing age. If it is true that it is th e16 y/o daughter's baby, it does bother me.
