i was listening on to the radio the other day and there were some women who called in complaining because they were kicked out of junior high/high school when they started "showing" i think it's totally fair, i don't want to see some pregnant girl beside me in AP biology. but that's just me...
do you think that pregnant teens should be forced to leave school when they begin to show? |

Thats pretty stupid.
Theres a few people at my school are pregnant, and you can really tell. If people actually see that their peers can actually get pregnant, they might not have sex, because they dont want to be the girl whos pregnant. |
