You are so correct when you say that many girls think that there is nothing wrong with being pregnant at 14, 15 & 16.

The girls walk around proudly, announce their baby showers and after giving birth they bring the babies to the school as if they have something to be proud of.

Telling young people not to have sex is a good idea however, I have 3 boys and I have decided that it's best for me to teach them how to be safe and that there is far more that can happen as a result of unprotected sex than just making a baby.

Since a great deal of dating takes place at school, DISD does need a better sex ed program.

There is so much attention being focused on so many other issues in DISD that very few seem to realize how many young girls, not boys have and will continue to fall through the cracks as a result of pregnancy.

I think that sex ed must begin primarily with our young ladies since many of them are often left being single parents.

I pray that one day soon more mothers of young men will step up and demand that their sons take financial responsibility for the babies that they create.

I must also say that it's not just poor girls having babies, this problem has crossed the economic barrier. We have to start to focus our attention on the problem of babies having babies and the economical impact that this wide spread problem has on Dallas.

If we focus on finances and color we will find ourselves in the same position that has kept the DISD school board members from doing their jobs "Racially Divided".
