I'm sure that it shows my age when I tell you that it blows my mind to read 'One of my senior high school students is pregnant'.
I think the difference in the age groups is that 40 years ago if you were pregnant you were not allowed to continue high school and many girls were sent away in secret to have their babies. This has been happening forever. It is much more common now and handled in a much different way. Don't get me wrong, I know it is not the best way, but that is how it is. Good for those people who are out there helping them.
If the girls have the right support their lives can be turned around.
