[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh everyone here is being a little snobby and classist for my liking but of course you're not wrong - these babies aren't as fortunate as the babies here. It's just sad evidence that there is not enough access to or accurate education about birth control and abortion.

But we are the ones that are out of touch with the reality of what most women in this country experience. Not them. [/quote]

Birth control and abortions? Have you been on baby center? These very poor moms really want these babies. Sadly they picked the wrong baby daddy's. The baby daddy drama is intense there! Their MiL stories make dcums seem sane. [/quote]

You really don't think sex ed, access to birth control, and access to abortion aren't factors here? [/quote]

Nope. New poster here. I think it is a much broader educational issue. I am sure many of these poor women were trying to comceive at a young age, in a bad situation. It is a biological urge to want children. And ut is part of the American dream.  The women you are talking about do not have college degrees and advancing careers, or husbands that make. a lot of money. Waiting 5-10 years to procreate changes nothing for them. Their life situations are what they are.[/quote]

I went to high school in a rural area (I'm 32). Out of my graduating class only three of us left the state for college that weren't going to Iowa for the popular Christian college. Most went straight into the workforce it to the local community college. Most married within 2 years and now have young teenagers. A lot of people went to work in family farms or the family business. A lot of the women stay home or work only part time. MLM is rampant - Plexus is very popular. People get buy but it's a very different lifestyle than DC.[/quote]
