[quote=Anonymous]I think it's the new teen pregnancy because we're getting married much later. So whereas many early and mid 20-somethings previously would have already been married and therefore having kids was seen as normal, I've seen a lot of unmarried 20-somethings get pregnant presumably accidentally and I imagine there is more pressure (both external and self-imposed) to keep the baby when you're not a teen anymore and you could feasibly care for it even if it might derail certain career and life goals. I know like 4 people off the top of my head who got pregnant and then went on to get married, or got pregnant while they were engaged. I think the judgement (which I'm guilty of) comes from knowing it's probably an accident (like teen pregnancy). [/quote]
