How common is it to have child care in high schools?

[MrShaun]

Is it common for teens to be having children? What is your opinion on the subject?

Most moms are either late teens or early 20s when they get pregnant for the first time.

Whether or not thats wise is debatable.

I certainly wouldn't want to juggle going to school, having a job, and having to do childcare at the same time. And with how often people don't consider actual compatibility, a lot of those teen moms become single moms.

It doesn't give the new parents much time to prepare either, so even if they stay together, it will be hard unless they were born into a lot of money.

They may also have to give up or postpone dream careers as well. Also they would have no free time to do anything fun.

Pretty common in urban settings. Even certain suburban communities. Nothing we can do about it, considering kids already have unlimited access to BC and/or condoms in a vast majority of the country. They just don't give af.

If I was dictator, I'd get vasogel installed on every boy at 12 years old. Our society would be transformed in a single generation.

Teens having children is nothing new, however I am yet to hear of a high school which provides child care nor do I think it would be a positive thing.

Not common fr. But yeah, a lt of teens I've known/ know have had children.

It's stupid. Then again Republicans seem perfectly fine forcing middle schoolers to have rape babies, so maybe their hard drives need to be checked.

Never heard of it happening here.
