-- Posted by Anonymous at 4:16 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 Is it like a fashion trend or something now? I've been seeing all these young girls getting pregnant now. One of my friends got pregnant in her senior year and now this freshman who just entered HS is pregnant. I mean its like their getting younger now. -- Posted by Rodiggidy at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 preventable? pfft. i'll look at ya make ya pregnant! -- Posted by HatesYou at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 Yah it's all some wierd fad.   -- Posted by forfallonyy at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 lol wow retards mi birth mom was 14 and preggo -- Posted by ImMarkG at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 It's just people making bad choices and being careless -- Posted by XxemochickxX at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 its b/c people are uneducated about birth control, and getting pregnant, and they are also careless. . . -- Posted by 2kewl4u2know at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 WTF?  Teen pregnancy has been a fad for awhile now, where have you been? -- Posted by runthespread at 4:17 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 Beats me. I'm not a fan of it, people have to grow up. I'd want to be able to give my child the best so I'd have to be ready for it. Unless you think like Palin and you don't have a choice, even if you're raped. -- Posted by sub800 at 4:19 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 that shit pisses me off. is it that hard to stick a rubber on the nigga's dick er what? -- Posted by brian2000 at 4:19 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 new fad no been going on for years -- Posted by eyesnosemouthears at 4:19 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 I think that media and other people are glorifying it too much! I mean, I'm 20 years old and want a baby, but I'm not doing ridiculous things to get one. I also think that these girls that are doing it aren't thinking about the full time job so much as 'oh! it'll be so fun to have a wittle bitty baby around!' Do you know what I mean? I know that sometimes, people aren't the most responsible, and I'm not calling any baby a mistake or any young mother an idiot. But when girls like the ones that were on the news not too long ago make a pact to get pregnant and have babies together...I think it's ridiculous. I mean, you can make that pact, but throw in the bit about 'once we're out of high school and graduate college and have husbands' into the mix...don't go to a 37-YEAR-OLD HOMELESS MAN just so you won't be the odd girl out of the pact. phew. -- Posted by Lord Cat at 4:22 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 ii know lttle skanks -- Posted by shortie415 at 7:51 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 Try this.  My friend got pregnant.  Shortly after we found out I was pregnant... through protection!  After that like 5 other girls got pregnant in a row.  Thing was these girls weren't even trying to use any kind of protection.  It really had just become a trend with some girls.  Only some girls. -- Posted by warrior chick at 8:47 pm on Sep. 9, 2008 well, it's no fashion trend. but i am 17 and i am 6 weeks pregnant, so does that make me a bad person or something??? and my baby's father is 20 ,is that so bad considering the fact that i will b 18 in November?? -- Posted by dunebug at 12:40 am on Sep. 10, 2008 The rate has actually gone up in the past couple years, thanks to Bush's abstinence only 'education' system. So yes, it's a bit more trendy now. -- Posted by SexyDiva19 at 8:54 am on Sep. 10, 2008 It happens all the time no big deal anymore! I am 20 today. I was 16 when I had my son -- Posted by Anonymous at 10:39 pm on Sep. 10, 2008 i got prago at 13 i have a 1 year old -- Posted by IamMelissa at 2:28 am on Sep. 11, 2008 my grandmother had 5 kids before she was 20. they were all doin it young. its not just now starting. -- Posted by lovednhated07 at 2:15 pm on Sep. 11, 2008 I think its ridiculous, I mean I could see if some of these girls were taking the proper steps to not get preggo, but most aren't. I mean look at the pregnancy pact in one of those schools (I forget where but I heard about it on the news awhile back). Girls think having a baby is cute and fun and think everything will be grand, till they actually get pregnant and are tired and weak and sick. Then they have the baby and they are tired and want to go shopping and out with friends. My cousin is only 19 and she has an almost one year old and is expecting her second son around the same time her first son will turn one. It's called birth control, use it. And use it CORRECTLY! -- Posted by katrinadoodle at 1:29 pm on Sep. 12, 2008 ^^ It's kinda hard to use birth control correctly when no one teaches you about it. We need an actual sexual EDUCATION class. It's appalling how little teens actually know about pregnancy and contraceptives. -- Posted by Boondox at 1:13 pm on Sep. 13, 2008 yeh i was just gonna make a post bout that i go to a small ass skool and plenty females have babies and some are pregnant. i also live in a place with one of the highest teen pregnancies, maybe the highest. every1 is getting pregnant over here.
