Unexpurgated comment from a real mom

as a pro-choice mother of teenage boys, the fundamentalist view being
portrayed nationwide as this teen pregnancy being hailed as a "blessed
event" scares the sh** out of me. i live in a rural area that has one of
the state's highest teen pregnancy rates. this has been discussed openly
in our home because i have witnessed over and over the "joy" little
girls portray as they drop out of school and push their baby carriages
around town. i have seen the young men drop out of school, get a job to
buy diapers just because they had unprotected sex. i have always
encouraged my boys to wait to have sex, but i know there are families
out there,just like the palins, that will throw a big party for the
child-mom who "chooses" to have the baby. i am scared to death of the
teen girls who are watching who are hearing just what they want to
hear - go ahead - get pregnant. my boys have access to condoms, and i
sure hope they use them. and, i can guarantee i keep a closer eye on my
boys than sarah palin apparently kept on her daughter. and, even if this
pretty young couple gets married, i suppose we'll see another chapter of
their "normal" family when they divorce in 3-5 years.

How do we know that you didn't author this little snippet?

It's there.

And it's right on.

We're facing a future of an increase in the number of pregnant unmarried
girls who will be following the Palin example. Bet on it.

Unwed mother pregnancies have been on the increase for years. Can any
political leaning claim the highest occurrences?


Yes. The rate in Washington DC is in the 80% range. No more need be said.
