I grew up in a small town and was exposed to the same issues.Many of my friends decided to have childern at the same age as these students.I to was being pressured to participte day in and day out..I was able to fight the peer pressure and not give in.I believe this has nothing to due with bad parenting, but with not having hope for the future.My town had a bridge just like your town . On the other side of the bridge they thought we were not up to par so a lot of the girls flet left out and had no chance to get a head in life,so by having a child they would always have something and somebody.Right now everybody is pointing fingers at each other as to whom is the blame.I think it's not who is to blame but, what is the reason!
