Over here there has been a huge increase in teenage pregnancies and even 12 year old girls having babies.

I know that in the tudor times people got married at 14 and had kids but 12 years old?

Due to our government, the whole getting pregnant as soon as possible is actually considered as a "career" move. There are girls who have one ambition - to have a baby. Why? Well , hmm I wonder if its to do with the free house and generous handouts you get from having the sprog?

There is actually one woman who was in the paper recently and all three of her teenage daughters are under 16 and have all of them babies. She even let one of them have her boyfriend stay the night at the age of 11.

This woman I think has never had a job and lived off benefits all her life. Her daughters will now do the same as history repeats itself.

Of course where is the irony in this? Well while one half of the UK are popping out sprogs faster than they can keep their legs shut, the other half are doing their best to avoid getting pregnant to further their career and income - which in turn gets taxed to pay for the half that can't keep their legs shut.

Appologies to all people who are good parents. Is there a system like this in america?
