Teen pregnancy pack
Check out this story. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2008-06-20-pregnancy-pact_N.htm
I just gasped when I read this. What are your reactions? My heart goes out to these young girls that think they can find love by having a baby. My heart also goes out to the school community that is now faced with such a crisis.
I think Lakota has some really amazing programs on sex education, including a class that deals with the realities of child rearing. There are also groups that come in to talk to students about the consequences of pre-marital sex. Do you think it is enough? Are these programs effective? Statistics show more students are becoming sexually active at younger ages. Do you see this as a problem? What are solutions?

Teen pregnancy and single parenthood are a huge societal problem. A mom just can’t raise kids as well, especially in matters of discipline, than if she had the help of the father. Those who end up criminals more often come from broken homes.

Lindsey — an off-topic comment/question for you. What happened to your post from June 19 concerning evolution vs. creationism? It is no longer anywhere to be found among the Cox blogs. (It can be found by looking at a cached version located thru a Google search, but nowhere else!)

There needs to be more education! Teen pregnancy is out of control and more needs to be done to address this issue. I am interested in watching The Baby Borrowers, which airs on NBC June 25th. I am hoping that it helps to educate!

Hy Hope u fine .. Here i wanna share my experience about Tubal Reversal.. For many women who do not want further children, tubal ligation is the preferred procedure. Thankfully with tubal reversal, the women can now counter the process and still have children again.
