The gangs are bad for the district but parents have to take some blame.
For the girls that are having babies you don't discourage them from going to school what kind of person are you.
If we had more caring parents and school staff maybe these things wouldn't be happening.
What are you doing to better the school district!
[Ed Note: I have an alternative approach: why don't we discourage gang participation (getting downright nasty if needed) and discourage high school girls from having babies? In some parts of our culture, it is socially acceptable to do both. If you want it to stop, you need to find a way to quit approving, communicate your disapproval of it, and make it unacceptable.]
