Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 It is amazing isn't it. They have no idea what they are in for. My oldest daughter works for Child Protective Services and the things she sees. She used to have a client who was 19, pregnant, never graduated HS, and had 4 other children!!!!! They all kept getting taken away from her, and she'd just get pregnant again. And she didn't have anyone to help her, both parents were deceased, no family here at all.....had just followed a bf out here and then he left her. If only these people could see 10 years down the road!! Take Care, B. in TEXASFrom: Sue <sweetsueohio2002@...> Sent: Monday, December 29, 2008 5:47:16 PMSubject: OT! I need to vent!

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Teens think they have all the anwsers. IMHOP teens who are sexually active need to have counseling sessions with other teen parents. They need to see first hand what its like to be completely in charge of a small child (and babysitting doesn't cut it). some schools used to have classes for the kids. The kids were paired up boy, girl, boy, girl (like a young couples). They had a list of bills they had to pay, such as rent, utilities, groceries exctra. They were also given a baby doll. They had to buy clothes, food, and diapers for this doll. If they wanted to go out somewhere, they had to leave the doll with a real live sitter. The list of responsibilities goes on. I never had the opportunity to take one of these classes. But I do believe those that did .....suddenly had 2nd thoughts about getting pregnant. Sue > > It is amazing isn't it.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 My ex mother in law used to work for our local Children Services Board. She once told me about a 19 yr old girl who had just had her 8th child, and the county just kept taking them. Sue > > It is amazing isn't it. They have no idea what they are in for.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 A woman I know has a granddaughter who got pregnant at 13. At 16, the boy was a gang member who had fathered babies with FIVE different girls. The granddaughter was sure the boy would marry her if she kept the baby, even though he had walked away from all the other girls. She was going to be the exception to the rule. Of course, that did not happen. No child support. No visits with the child. Now the child is 4. He shows signs of being dissocial - he tortures animals, for one thing - and he has the foulest mouth I have ever heard in my life. He's been kicked out of govt funded daycare because of his behavior. But the granddaughter is pregnant again by the same guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
