He is darling!

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.
