I Guess The New Accessory Is A Baby For Youths Nowadays

I was doing my daily run of my blog check at work(I’m a Paper Pusher Nothing Better To Do) and found this to be very disturbing that these young school girls decide to all get pregnant at the same time. I was over at Catch Up and came upon the information. I heard a little about the situation but never really read in full detail about this "Baby Path These Young Girls Made.” The article comes from Times On line here’s there direct link to the original article
Teen ‘pregnancy pact’ has US town reeling in shame

Reported By: Tony Allen-Mills, Gloucester, Massachusetts

WHEN a 15-year-old girl at Gloucester high school in Massachusetts discovered she was pregnant earlier this year, she displayed no trace of fear or concern. Shown the results of her pregnancy test, she responded: “Sweet!” She then rushed off to tell her friends.
The girl was among a group of up to 18 Gloucester teenagers who may have made an apparent “pregnancy pact” that has stunned this decaying fishing community and sparked a renewed national debate about sex education in American schools.
The notion that girls as young as 14 might deliberately try to become pregnant has embarrassed school and health officials. It has also ignited a row about what exactly the girls were up to, and to what extent the religious beliefs of this predominantly white and Catholic corner of New England may have encouraged an unprecedented spike in teenage sexual activity.
In Gloucester last week, there was both shame and scorn as officials questioned the nature of the “pact” and teenagers shrugged their shoulders at a scandal that many seemed to view as the inevitable consequence of growing up bored.
Most worrying for other parents across the country is the mounting evidence that after 15 years of declining national teen pregnancy rates, the problem is returning. A recently released government study found that the number of teenagers who said they had used a condom the last time they had sex dropped from 63% in 2005 to 61% last year.

My Thoughts

What in the HE double L is going on in the world? Where are the books for these kids to read when there bored? Where are the parents when these young girls or getting it on, not criticizing the parents because there's a million in one way to get the good stress reliever stick (I WAS A TENNY BOPPER BEFORE No I'm was not a sex craze teenager I just knew how to get away with thing my parents till this day don't know anything about he he), but are there any contraception and sex ed in these young girls lives.This needs to be back in full force at these school. Kids having Kids this is nothing new in the community I grew up in but the girl never had a path they just did not know when it was time to get off of the good before it was too late. Babies are popping up everywhere everyone wants to be pregnant. How many are going to be good mothers that the question. Anyone can bring life into the world but to take on the job of being a parent is a full pledge job some are not cut out for.
