He is darling!

I'm not getting this response unless this picture is anacronism for a condom
Bingo!

[quote rgG]I can't couldn't gush over this type of union, no matter what color, ethnicity, religious preference the kids are. One stupid, stupid mistake will alter their lives forever. They are not prepared to be parents, she isn't even going to graduate from high school before she is a mom. To have this happen in this day and time when it can be prevented, and not just by abstinence, is just sad.

I don't think a comment like, he is darling, is appropriate. He may be physically attractive, but I find his lack of responsibility in this matter appalling and anything but darling. As for him marrying the girl, that doesn't fix the problem, it just makes it more socially acceptable.

Too many kids wind up like this. I worry about my daughter and her friends. We have had so many talks about this it is ridiculous. You can never be sure what your kids will or will not do, but at least we have discussed this. She knows that I want her to wait, but that I want her to protect herself from pregnancy and disease even more. I hope we never find ourselves in this situation, it would not be darling at all.
rgG, here's the problem. They may not view it as a mistake. It might have been intentional.

That may be, but we can't know, that would only be conjecture. It is a mistake, IMHO, whether they think it is or not.

Not sure you're getting my point. You think it's a mistake; they may not see it that way. That's independent of any conjecture. Palin herself has apparently rationalized it as a non-mistake.

I've heard to many people dismiss this with the statement that kids will be kids. Perhaps, but these kids are now having a kid. This is more serious than missing curfew.

And I read today that Levi's mom would not answer the question regarding his status as a student. He may have dropped out. Brilliant.

I think to some degree they see it as waving the heterosexual flag.

Just another dopey teen aged kid. Can't stand them.

Good thing you were never one.
