[QUOTE="Crayola13, post: 754163, member: 21066"] According to what I have read, there can be many reasons teenage or young adult girls deliberately get pregnant. Sometimes the sister will get pregnant because of all the attention given to the other sister if she's pregnant. Do you think your other granddaughter wants attention like her sister is getting? TV shows like "16 and Pregnant" and "Unexpected" are said to be part of the problem. The girls on those shows are making money from being pregnant. If they get pregnant again, the show renews their contract. They get their nails and makeup done for free before they go on camera. Until recently, teenage girls and young adults were told they would ruin their lives by getting pregnant. Because it's such a common problem these days, parents and teachers are no longer telling the girls they will ruin their lives this way. The churches have stopped telling them their lives are ruined because they don't want the girls to get abortions. They have started acting like an unwanted pregnancy is a great thing. Women at any age are so afraid birth control pills are going to make them fat, but pregnancy makes them fat, too! Men don't like condoms. Most doctors won't do a tubal ligation on a teenage girl. I don't know what kind of relationship your granddaughters have with their mom. That could have something to do with their decision to get pregnant on purpose. Maybe they want to trap a guy into marriage, or are seeking a way to be supported by him financially. I also think some girls just want a baby to cuddle as long as the aggravating part of motherhood doesn't come. I think if some of them would just get a kitten, they could have something to cuddle and love without all the problems and expense that a child would cause! [/QUOTE]
