WASILLA, Alaska – The engagement is off for the teenage daughter of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and the father of her baby. Levi Johnston told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he and Bristol Palin mutually decided "a while ago" to end their relationship. The 19-year-old Johnston declined to elaborate.

Eighteen-year-old Bristol Palin says in a statement to the AP that she is "devastated."

The two are the parents of a boy named Tripp, who was born Dec. 27.

Sarah Palin revealed her daughter's pregnancy days after being named John McCain's running mate on the Republican presidential ticket.

In an interview that aired on Fox News last month, Bristol Palin said her fiance saw the baby every day and described him as a "hands-on" dad.

The two had said they were considering a summer wedding.

Not surprising. They're still kids. I'm not saying it's impossible for two so young to stay together, but not the norm.

LOL.

Now that's kind of a shame because the baby won't grow up with a mother and father in the same house. Hopefully though just because they broke up that won't mean he'll turn his back on the baby. On the other hand though who didn't see this coming?

Yeah, no kidding. Unfortunately, I would bet many people didn't see it coming. I think it is a testimonial with what is wrong with one segment of our society. I hope he continues to be a positive influence in his sons life although I know it is difficult to be a part-time Dad. He should man up and tend to his responsibilities.

It is not fair to assume he won't be in the child's life, he very well might turn out to be a great father. Another thing to keep in mind is that this isn't exactly a lower or middle-class family we're talking about. That child will be well taken care of.
