These girls need love and attention, they need guidance. I'm by no means saying that them having sex and getting pregnant is ok, but if it's already done don't turn your backs on them.Even the one's that seem like they're determined to be hoochie mamas, that may be all they've seen or all they know. If you have it in you to do it...Try to show them the right way.[/B]

Conskeeted19: I have to two suggestions (1) you (or your school), should have the girls who have already had their babies talk to other students and show them that raising/having a baby isn't as "glamourous" as they think and (2) make your students plan a budget that includes caring for a child.
Make them plan their budgets for diapers, milk, clothes, childcare and so on. Tell them to act as if they have NO ONE to help them care for their baby but themselves.
