Sp-Grøthe (24) had a girl

Sp-Grøthe, a 24-year-old politician, expresses joy over becoming a mother early in her 20s, alongside discussing the meaning of politics in relation to her child's future.

24-year-old Sp-Grøthe recently welcomed a daughter and expresses her happiness about becoming a mother at a young age. In a message to VG, she reflected on the challenges of early parenting but affirmed her choice, stating that early motherhood makes politics feel more meaningful, especially regarding the type of society her child will grow up in. She plans to cherish the early days with her newborn amid political responsibilities.

As she prepares to attend a county party meeting for Trøndelag Sp, Grøthe highlights the importance of political engagement for young parents. She believes that discussions about parenthood and societal structures are crucial, pointing out that fewer people under 30 are becoming parents. This topic was brought up in a previous VG interview with Kjersti Toppe, a former children's minister and mother of six, whom Grøthe sees as a role model.

Grøthe criticized the declining birth rates in Norway and emphasized her desire to encourage younger generations to embrace parenthood earlier. While acknowledging the challenges faced by new parents, she pointed to the advantages of having children young, inspired by Toppe's example, and expressed her commitment to actively participating in shaping the society her daughter will grow up in.
