My experience in high school (which probably was unusual, I'll admit) was that the only girl in my class who had a baby while in still in school was in Honors/AP classes with me. Once she had the baby, she transferred to the Advanced Academy of Georgia to get a head start on her college degree. Her son is adorable

(Point being: Please don't make assumptions. People make mistakes and birth control isn't foolproof.)
