Anyways, enough about the past month or so, let's talk about now!
The Children are our Future
My English class this semester has been amazing. We were assigned to pick a topic to write about for the whole semester. Most of the essays we've written have been really good mental exercises I think, but that's not what I'm getting at.The topic I chose was unexpected pregnancy. I know quite a few people who have become pregnant unexpectedly and their situation isn't always the best. We had to research our topic and find sources to try to find answers to our questions and through my research I realized how grim the situation is.
I'm not entirely sure what all can be done about this problem... but I think there is something that can be done. This assignment has just really inspired me to open my eyes to the world and try to help our fellow man... "brothers and sisters"... whatever you want to call it. We're here together and I think it's important to help each other. I think the point i'm trying to make is to open your minds and think about what we can do as individuals to make the best future we can. Afterall, these pregnant women are carrying our future. Shouldn't we try to help them?
If you have any ideas, please leave a comment. And if you want to know more, I'd be happy to share some of the essays I've written or the sources I've found.
Let's do our part!

It is true that the problem with young girls getting pregnant is bigger than most people think. There is such a shortage of communication with these girls that they don't think about their actions. They just act without regard to the possible outcome. The best help is to spread the word. There is a way to confidentially get birth control and condoms FOR FREE and no parent has to know. There also is a need to girls to be shown that their lives are worth protecting. So much so that they should have the courage demand protection be used and to not compromise under any circumstances. If the guy is a jerk about it, all that means is that he could care less about your safety and future. Otherwise, the only help they deserve is any they can get from their families and from government organizations. I believe that if you make a bad decision you must take full responsibility. And if that means struggle all your life, that is what it means.
We make choices everyday. Some are much more important and deserve to have been thought out.
