Do You Know A Family Like This?

IRRESPONSIBLE accidents that everybody else has to pitch in and help raise, the parents, the community in taxes that pays for the WIC programs, food stamps, housing and medicals.

but the accidental family can still accidentally fall in love with each other...there is no such thing as accidental in this world. There is a reason for everything.

All new babies can be happy if the older cousins, aunts and uncles, grand parents, and parents welome and Love the child. And the young parents can be happy if they choose to be. Money doesn't buy Love. All parents find a way to make a life easier by sharing it together.

Very strong and real. But the whole world started to resemble that little town of yours. It is inevitable, and I believe the main reason is the uncontrolled immigration from the 3rd world countries to the more "advanced". Sudden overpopulation and robotizing of industries, plus the transfer of industries to countries where the workers work for a few bucks a day, descended as a new disease upon organized areas, that had learned to survive in a certain manner. Now they can not. It is the antagonism among industries, and the increased needs. Industries, in order to "survive", they need to sell. They invent nice "goodies" toys for grown-ups every day. People are supposed to buy the products. They spent all of their money. they need more money. Nobody pays them for that. Nobody HAS to pay them. A star that over-shines, finally collapses. This is the world around us now. An over-shining star, that cannot support it-self. And the people suffer..

Hi Shirley, I'm so glad HH offered a positive, and I knoe he always has it in him.

It has been a sad turn in my lifetime, that "babies" are havin babies, and I'm not even talkin about it as any sin, but many of the situations don't turn out as well, or not as smoothly perhaps as the exaample HH gave, but it's up to society to not ignore, but help, mentor, educate, advise, if for no other reason than the children

My last year in hs there were five..and then my friend just announced she was pregnant on fb of all places and I don't even know if there's a guy or??! Meh, I'm not here to pass judgement. I'm sure some of them do turn out very happy.

I have a friend who was studying for the priesthood when he had one of those "flings" that turned into an unplanned wedding and resulted in a lovely young lady (now in her mid-twenties) and the start of a large and seemingly happy family.

Funny how such a tragedy can turn into such a joy.

*clears throat*

ain't just teenagers having little illegitimates, and free love and procreation - lack of protection leads to unwanted sometimes, actually wanted babies, and things happen daddy's leave and even mommy's sometime and a single parent it born, out of which some of the smartest children are formed.... a die is cast for each and every one of us and we make what we will of our situation, some of us work, some of us sit back and wait for handouts.

This is an interesting take on youth pregnancy.I would not be here if not for that mistake. I now readdress the word mistake.

your poem describes human nature.something we have all experienced

some are lucky to not have anything come of it others end up in a life altering moment
