Soror SDiva22,
I think that's an excellent question also. I've never thought about it until now, but I'd have to say that we should accept pregnant teenagers or teenage moms into the Rhoer club also. We know what our Rhoer club's purpose is. Those aims and ideals should be put towards ALL tenage girls. Maybe even MORE SO towards teenage moms. Their Rhoer club and mentors in the sorority can serve as a suport system for her in a situation where they might not get it from too many others. Also, we can better prepare those young ladies, and those not in that situation, to learn to care for their bodies and prevent unwanted pregnancies from happening (again). And if it does happen, we let them know that they can do it; they'll have a netowrk of supportive people who care about them, their children, their goals, their education, and their future! Also, they'd get a chance to see so many strong women (as we all are) and this would let them know that they can do it too!
So I'm all for it!
