"My moral code says it is not o.k. to be an unwed, teenage mother. As I stated earlier, society (particularly AA society) has for too long said it was o.k. to participate in behavior that should not be o.k."
--I agree with you totally, Eclipse. It does seem as if society, particularly AA society, is very lenient about certain things, especially when it comes to having children out of wedlock. I understand that accidents often happen, and a woman shouldn't be penalized for anything in her past. That includes joining a sorority on the undergraduate level...
I honestly don't think a woman, who's got a huge responsibility like a family, will be able to devote as much time to her sorority as is required in the New Member period, no matter how well she's got it for her and her baby. It seems as if she'd spread herself too thin, and her child and devotion to the sorority would suffer. If someone is able to do it all, I have nothing but the most love and respect.
