HS students pact to get pregnant...

Oh how very sad for everyone. For the girls, for the babies and for the families of these young girls having babies.

I think all the highschools should participate in that progam that they give the kids those computeried babies that cry at all hours, get colic and all the good stuff randomly. It has a memory in there that they can't mess with and they get a grade on how they cared for their baby. The mechanical babies can die.

This is so sad. I remeber in the 9th grade my friend wanted to be pregnant so bad, she lost her first baby than in the 10th grade she had a little girl. I guess when someone makes up their mind nothing can change it.

It is hard enough when a teenager comes out pregnant and it isnt planned, but to purposely get pregnant is beyond my comprehension. I do not understand why these youg girls would do this to their future. I do not think its necessarily the parents fault or how they raised their children. I just dont get it

I think that they're making a big mistake by making this such a huge story. The girls are getting so much attention, and that's not going to do anything positive for any attention-seeking group of teenage girls that doesn't care about consequences (and there are plenty of those).

i agree
and
Where are these girls parents??

I think peer pressure means more to teenagers than parents. You want to do what your friends do. You have to have a really strong sense of self to not get caught up in this - this is what comes from the parents.

This is really sad. These girls have plenty of years ahead for making babies and raising them, they should focus on their education and childhood.

Thats very true. I hope other girls don't copy this horrible idea. I can't believe this. They are all so young and to not even care who the father is. It's one thing to have an accident with your boyfriend. At least you know the guy and hopefully he is responsible enough to take care of his child. But, to go out and find an random guy, literally, is just CRAZY!! I hope they all have good parents that can help them because, they certainly won't be able to handle it.

I like the computerized baby idea. I saw it on a reality show once, was it the Hogan show? I think it was and it kept Nick up all the time. I think he ended up with a horrible grade, too. That reality show that shuber mentioned seems interesting. Like she said, actually had a purpose and could reach some teens. I like the slogan, too. lol "its not a reality show, its birth control."
