I had a 7th grader (just turned 13) get pregnant last year. Her twin sister then went and got pregnant because "Then our babies can grow up like sisters!"

This year, they show off the pictures of the babies. The other girls are saying: "Oh, they are so cute! I want to have a baby, too!"

It happens.

Having a baby is a fashion statement? WTF? Sorry, but right now (for personal reasons) this statement pisses me off!


Where were the parents in all this. I can tell you, I was too scared of my mom to even THINK about getting knocked up as a teen.

Chavs+Daily Mail=WTF. Bad sources all around. Besides, having a baby is a requirement of being a female chav. That and the burberry hat.

Pregnancy before menstration.

As much as I ususally loathe .org medical info sites, this one talks about getting pregnant before menstration, which is possible, also.

Ummm, yeah they also forget children cost money and they need 2 WORKING parents.

As a child of a single mother, I'm just going to ignore the "need 2 working parents" comment or else I might blow up.

As far as little girls getting pregnant, (http://www.snopes.com/pregnant/medina.asp), the youngest mother ever recorded was a 5-year-old Peruvian girl.
