define who this 'we' is that you are talking about, if the 'we' is US society in general then..
*we are against teen pregenancies because teenagers are not ready or able to fufill parental responsibilities * a 30 year old is on the other hand is able.
well depends on the person there are married couples with kids who should have been neutered instead of allowing to hve kids, I am talking about abusers, baby killers etc..
but in general a 30 year old having a kid is very diff than a 16 year old having a kid..
and that is exactly what my point is. I think that the lady chose an irresponsible way of bringing a child in this world (assuming that is an out of wedlock birth). What started as an act of irresponsibility will remain an act of irresponsibility. If she is from desi community, she has to raise the kid in this community. How will the kids be received by the society? Will he become an outcast? Will he become rebalious? Will it hurt his self esteem? Will he be ashamed of his mom's act? Will he ever get married or will he decide just to sleep around cause that is what he learned from his mom?
That is why I said that her act was a selfish one cause she was thiking of fulfiling her wish without thinking of the consequences the baby is going to face once he grew up.
