Teenage Pregnancy

i am still kind of in shock....there are so many girls that i went to school that are either pregnant or have kids right now. and yeah, i'm still just eighteen. thats young. and scary. what gets even scarier is that these girls arent even married, some of them dont even speak to the father anymore. what does that say about society today? it makes me wonder what life is going to be like for that child. will they know that people whispered unkind words behind their mother's backs? how many will see there mothers in a negative light because of their birth? that worries me. and i realize that i am so glad sor my own virtues. but i also dont want to shut out these poor girls, who are victims of their own choices, but i still want to be their friend, y'know?
