Yes, it’s about them wanting to be mothers…but why? Because they can. It’s as simple as that. I think these are the unintended consequences of telling young girls that they are the absolute masters of their bodies. I do believe in sex education to a point, but at some point, it becomes a tacit permit or even a mere expectation that they will be sexually active. The culture tells them sex is ok, even glamourous and that an abortion is an easy solution to an unwanted pregnancy. It’s their bodies and their choice, even at the expense of another’s life. No wonder they are now deciding it is as much their choice to actually have the baby, for whatever romanticized and delusional idea of teen motherhood they may have.
