Why Did 1 Of 8 Girls Get Pregnant At Robeson High?

Officials Say A Mix Of Factors Are To Blame, As They Try To Help The Young Women

CHICAGO (CBS) It is a Chicago public school full of energy and spirit. It has about 800 girls, and 115 of them have something in common – something you might find disturbing.

CBS 2's Kristyn Hartman reports.

All those young ladies are moms or moms-to-be at Paul Robeson High School. It's not a school for young mothers, it's a neighborhood school. And all of the pregnancies have happened, despite prevention talk.

If you want to know why, the people closest to the situation say there's no simple explanation.

Chicago Public Schools says it does not track the overall number of teen moms in the district. But Robeson Principal Gerald Morrow knows the count at his school in Englewood: 115 young ladies who are either expecting or already have had children.

How about just one factor...the inability of these children to keep their pants on.

Gee....you would think a principal of a school would know how girls get pregnant.  :thatsright:


It's not rocket science.

"A" inserted into "B" often results in "C".

With a million plus little swimmers and one target....chances are one of them will reach the goal.

As to the "why"....

again...it doesn't take a PhD to figure it out....

could it be because it feels good? ::)

From the article:

Quote
LaDonna Denson and two other Robeson students say parents not talking to teens and, in some cases, the pursuit of public assistance also factor into the pregnancies. None of them thought they'd be moms at such a young age.

Looks like government programs are encouraging teen pregnancies.

That is a goal for many.  Get pregnant, get a check and a place of your own. If baby daddy gets a job and moves in, that's JACKPOT!

At the risk of being called "racist', what's the racial make-up of these kids? Sorry, but it sure seems to be happening in the projects, supported by DimWhit politicians for the last 40 years at a much greater frequency!

Heck, if the gubmint paid for rubbers for these gangsta hoodrat doods or paid for birth control pills then I still think it wouldn't make a difference.

These chics there wear it as a badge of honor to have "baby daddy's" kid.
