Its unfortunate Pretty Girl, but any unwed teenage mother is promiscuous. There is no way to disassociate the two. You were not 18 yet, most likely still in high school and got pregnant. Its hard to hear a label such as "promiscuos", but that is what it is. Looking back I am sure you see that you made some not to good choices that really shaped your future. Admit that you may have been one way then, but hopefully you have matured and know have strived to become a good mother who has not let an early pregnancy hold her back. You may have fit the label, but that does not mean you can't move on and up. I think you have a better chance of gaining membership if you admit that you made a few choices that were not good at the time, but you worked hard to make a life instead of falling in the welfare trap and are on the road to a degree. Arguing with the members of your prospective chapters about your right to have a child will get you nowhere, but voted OUT. Letting them know who you have become and where you are going will get you more recognition and perhaps more votes. Just my $19.13
