Teen Pregnancy

Tnophelia

I am sick of people going on about how teenage girls should not get pregnant and are sluts for being so. Fuck you Moral Guardians and Angsty Virgin Teenagers Who Got Rejected By The Slut In Their Chemistry Class. We can be good parents too.

Although I quit really early on for reasons people deem as selfish, I know there are some people who can pull their own weight and care for a baby even at 16. There is TANF, food stamps, welfair and all of these things to help mothers.

So get your head out of your ass and recognize. -waves arm in the air gangsta-style-

I actually agree with you in some ways. Even if you might think that making the choice to get pregnant (well it is usually a choice) is a bad idea when one is a teenager, I believe that a teen who is pregnant needs to be given respect. I do not believe after the fact complaining really solved anything and name calling is even less useful.

Of course, there is also the whole abortion angle and sexual activity before marriage or a stable relationship angle on which I do not care to comment.

But it's just a better idea to wait, if you don't want an economic shitstorm hitting youself.

It's a better idea to wait, but it's not a idiotic choice either that merits bullying.

I feel like if they make the decision, though I'm not sure if it's the right one, I'll stand by the choice. But when it's unintentional, that's rarely good.

Yeah, I'm not buying it.

Good. It's not for sale.
