Re: Why is it cool to get pregnant - May 25th 2011, 11:07 PM

I don't consider pregnant teenagers to be whores but I don't look upon them in a favourable light, particularly if they're younger teenagers. I look at them and my initial reaction when it's a younger teenager is "there goes your childhood, get an abortion before it's legally too late". When it's an older teenager (18-19 years old), I think "that certainly has put a dent in your future career as a college or university student, get an abortion". Overall, I'm not in favour of teenage pregnancies. I don't think the mothers were reckless but I do think they made the wrong decision by keeping the pregnancy and not getting an abortion.

Teenage marriages seem ridiculous to me but I'll congratulate them to let them keep feeling happy as they're probably under direct pressure from their families and indirect pressure from society since it is very unusual. Years ago it was accepted but that was back then, the reasons they had (i.e. shorter lifespan) don't apply to many people anymore.

Why teenage pregnancies are televised is beyond me. I'm amazed there is an audience who wants to watch such stuff, indicating there's a greater acceptance or even a demand. To me it's still unacceptable and is grounds for getting an abortion. If the father wishes to be in the mother's life, that's wonderful but I still suggest an abortion in my mind.
