<<you all do notice how funny white folks are! NOW guess what! they are trying to say that their is no recollection of a pact being started by a group of girls at that school. the principal stating he didnt even know how the rumor got started. there is no such thing as a pregnancy pact at that school...blah blah...yea yea.... LAWD white folks are good at trying to cover up their s.hit! i swear........smdh.>>

That's why I can't get into the  BS hype over this story and associated excuses (the girls into the hype of the Hollyweird baby craze, Jamie Spears pregnancy) when IT HAS A LOT TO DO WITH PISS POOR ASS PARENTING-PERIOD!!  If this was some ish going on in a majority school with black or hispanic girls do you think MAINSTREAM MEDIA would give a DAMN about them??  Or just be like hmm soo typical of them!!

I applaud the folks that KNOW they do not want kids. A lot of folks give them grief, but those same folks seem to forget that there are a lot of unwanted kids in the world. Especially, colored children. I'm glad it worked out for you, but I wish society would lay off the folks that, IMO, are doing something unselfish by not bringing unloved and unwanted kids into the world.

And heck yes, babies cease being cute once you leave the hospital. These girls will learn the HARD way.

LOL, at the underlined.  This girl I know is going through this now.  She talks about the feedings every four hours even in the middle of the night.  No fun at all, I don't think she'll be having another any time soon.  Too bad she had to learn the hard way, but I'm glad she's learning.

I am astonished on the news coverage of this.  I know if these were black or hispanic girls with a knocked up pact like this it wouldn't have gotten the major news coverage that it did.  It kills me of all the blame on society on how the girls are when I HEARD NO ONE IN THE NEWS OUTLETS BLAME THE DAMN PARENTS OF THESE GIRLS!!! It is sad when you don't have anyone calling out the lack of parental involvement in the lives of the young!!

EbonyDiva, I'm gonna take it a little further.  Statistically there has been an increase amongst white girls concerning teen pregnancy while black girls have decreased .  This is only getting national attention because their girls are now in a crisis, so they expect that the Earth should stop spinning on it's axis until there is a solution to the problem.  I say you reap what you sow, for years the white community sat back and thought it was okay to deny resources to other communites which is one of the root causes to a lot of social ills.  So I say now let's see if they develop some apathy now that they have to face some of these ills.

Babies having babies, with grandmothers (or maybe younger) as young as 28 year of age, and they have no shame. The lack of a good or christian father in the home is a major reason for must of this stupid behavior.  These are the ones who will depend on local and federal programs to meet some of their personal needs.  Now there is a upswing of women filling up the jails, as the rate for males is steady increasing.

     No women can be both mother and father. The failure rate speaks for it self. Both male and female children need the guidance, love and wisdom of the male in the home. However, if the father is not in the home he should be an intregal part of the his children life, both physically and financially. He should maintains a positive attitude when he is around the mother, in front of the chidren. 

    The churches have failed to discuss these issues because of maybe hurting some of the members feelings or making them feel guilty. The churchs must also teach life skills.   Although I have not been blessed to knowing my father, and lossing my mother at the age of 10.  I wonder how much greater a man I would have been if I had grown up with both loving parents. Learning how to love women came later in my life, but I didn't become a homosexual.    

they're all stupid........how ignorant.....

I know I got my apathy GALORE!! I AM IN 1000% agreement with you completely on this!!!

<<lol @ does my school teach sex ed.  we are in the bible belt here in texas .. sex ed isn't allowed in schools.>>

 THAT IS REALLY REALLY SAD!!  From what you have describe IT IS VERY MUCH NEEDED!! No abstinence program would work although for it to be addressed is strongly recommended!!!  Why is that the case of no sex ed in your school even with the abundance of pregnancies and sad ass misinformation these young people have?????

THAT IS VERY MUCH HORRIBLE and I am not sure what stance you would take on it but is it possible for you to address that concern to your school board based on what you have stated???
