This is all over the news [example here]:

(AP) A woman prosecutors say helped make a graphic videotape of her two visiting grandchildren has pleaded guilty in a Texas child pornography case.

The U.S. attorney's office said Friday that 51-year-old Denise Ward of Overland Park, Kan., pleaded to coerced sexual activity.

Ward was living in Texas' Harrison County in May 2000, when she is accused of helping produce a tape in which her grandchildren were photographed nude.

The children were 10 and 11 at the time. Prosecutors say the parents were not aware of the videotaping.

The U.S. attorney's office says Ward entered her plea Thursday in federal court in Marshall.

She remains in custody and faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine when sentenced.

Now, let's do the math:

• Ms. Ward is now 51
• The offense took place in 2000, so we'll presume she was 43 at the time
• The grandchildren were 10 and 11 years old at the time
  
• Ergo, the Ms. Ward became a grandmother when she was 32-years old

Repeat after me... this is one of the more stupid people in the world... and is more proof that stupidity has its own rewards.

And I'd have to say that her daughter probably learned everything she knows from her mother. [well, do the math!]
