Blonde Logic
Yes. You can.
Sorry, I may be unpopular for this, and it is completely off topic - but am I the only one in t England that thinks its NOT OK to have a kid, "just cause"???
Since I left my job in January, about a dozen young single, erm, extremely "social" (that s a nice word for it) Young girls are all pregnant.
None of them married.
All of them in relationships I know won't last more the a few full moon cycles, etc...several of them binge drinkers, etc....
They are all popping up announcing they are pregnant.
Now, I KNOW there are some VERY capable single mothers out there, and I KNOW circumstances arise in some cases where women find themselves single.
BUT - this makes me sad, and now verging on angry.
What about the baby? What about the child that will grow up without a real FAMILY, because the man will be shot at the site of the first diaper, or at the first flirtation from a gal you is free from all the responsibility that comes with, it, etc.
I am quite liberal, and open minded - but GEEZ. Will SOMEONE stop and think about the 'family unit' that seems to be becoming, at an alarming rate, an endangered species???
I just learned a girl who is mentally unstable - had been signed off work for 4 months at least cause she could;t cope with the stress of working 9-5, is pregnant. Its not fair. Its not fair for the baby.
Tell you what - the values in this country in about 10-15 years seem, to me, to be a very scary thing, as all these little babes will grow up not knowing the importance of a family, they will be running the show.
<shakes head>
I think its a real cryin shame.
I don;t mean to offend anyone here - and again - I know there are some very responsible young women who are capable of raising a babe on their own - BUT - the babe misses out on the wonderful relationship with a father, and the fantastic experience of life as a family.
It just reallllllly gets to me.
<sigh>
alright alright - stepping off my soap box now. Just had to vent, cause it makes me so sad for all these littlens who are being brought into the world, simply as a possession, or a 'just cause' baby. I really feel for them.
Just had to rant.
