Lesson of the day: don't post stuff to Facebook, or any other social networking site, that could be about 10-15 people who you are friends with.
One example, bad talking teen pregnancy when some of your friends are teen mothers. I don't necessarily support teen pregnancy but it happens. One teen mom can make a whole generation of teens look bad. Teen mom after teen mom adds to the statistics. It's not something I want for me or any of my friends.
They say that teen mothers aren't as good of mothers as a 25 or 30-year-old but I don't necessarily find that to be true. I know parents who had there first kid at 26 and they can be neglectful and act like they don't care. I also know people who were pregnant in high school who are very loving and kind parents.
Some teens can pull it together and make enough money to house their children and feed them but at what cost to them. They removed the chance for some opportunities like college and traveling while they are young. Some teen mothers face depression and anxiety because a baby is a lot to handle. It's not easy being a parent at any age really.
Being responsible for how someone grows up is a BIG responsibility so it should be taken seriously and there should be lots of thought about the future and there should also be planning.
