This is one of the most disturbing things I have ever read!

BBC NEWS | World | Americas | US fears of teen 'pregnancy pact'

I know this is in america not here but what is the world coming to? I thought sex education was improving not getting worse.

This really gets my goat up. have these young girls even considered what it takes to bring up a baby.The late nights and long days.They should have there heads banged together. Now i know that some will make good mothers, but hey they should be sorted.Contraceptibves are a good idea, yes coming from a mum of 9 soon o be 10 i have alot to be quiet about but i was not a teen when i had my kids and they werent for a pact.

Its truley disturbing. I read in the paper that one of the fathers was a twenty four year old homeless person.
Seriously.
But what are the parents doing? Where are these girls finding the oppertunity to have this sex with homeless men? I makes you wonder how much controll the parents have over their little darlings!
I never would have had the oppertunity to have had sex with anyone. Homeless or otherwise, at the age of sixteen..... my parents knew too mudch about me as they made sure I didn't do anything they didn't want me to andmade sure they knew where i was and with who at all times.

That is what is lacking in some mothers (and i use the term losley) these days. They are trying too hard to be a friend and not hard enough to be tge law enforcer, the boundry setter and the mummy.

I agree with every thing you've said Blondie
