It's horrifying. And the problem is,
the real victims are the children themselves.
Both of them--the one birthing them, and those that were borne by her. Does this mean that
every kid born to a teen or gods-help-us, a tween, will be "bad," or whatever? No. But if you've ever read up on some of the most definitive studies on teen pregnancy, the odds are badly stacked against both mother and child.
AND my bum, legs and lower back, which don't deserve to be cart-whacked.
