Kids having kids

Lately My heart has been just aching at one of the shows on MTV called "16 and Pregnant".  It is so sad to see so many young lives being ruined by the choices they make and the way they were raised.  So many young people, now are growing up with more pressure than before, and the moral and ethical decisions being made are just so unhealthy.  Never before have there been so many teenage pregnancies, so many children who don't get to grow up, and enjoy and learn in their childhood.  And this in turn, will affect the generations to come.  I just don't understand where the parents are, and how they could be allowing this to happened.  It is not always the fault of a parent when their daughter gets pregnant ( or their son gets a woman pregnant), but a lot of times it is a result of neglect and poor parenting.  One of the girls from the show 16 and pregnant said that she got pregnant on purpose just to get on the show! It is so sad:( we need to talk to our young women, and instill self esteem, and values and show them that they can make something of themselves and eventually in the future find a truly safe and loving relationship  and have healthy children...after they are done being children
