Pregnancies.

Does anyone else feel that there is an unnatural amount of pregnant people around lately? I have like five friends that are pregnant, my mum has three friends that are pregnant... it's crazy! So has anyone else noticed a large amount of people being pregnant at the moment, or is it just me, because I went to a public school and am nearly 19? Lol.

Just wondered if anyone else has an opinion on this. And don't slam me, it's not that I have a problem with reproduction (lol) it just seems to be happening a lot at the moment! :D

Yeah pretty much. I find that attitude just really annoying. It seems like most of the girls I know just don't want to have an actual job, and see this as an easy way of getting heaps of government support. Ergh.

I didn't say pregnancy was unnatural, I said there seem to be an "unnatural amount". At least where I am. There seems to have been a spike in births and pregnancies.

I think it is so sad when young girls, anybody for that matter, has a baby so they can get welfare. A baby is a huge responsibility. People don't stop and think before they act. I know what you mean though about a baby boom. In the last year about four girls at my work have had babies.

I know! I went to visit my best childhood friend, who's just become pregnant (She's 18 and her boyfriend is 17), yesterday, and she was interacting with her younger siblings, being all "Aren't they cute? This is why I want kids." then about five minutes later she said "Ergh, little s****, I wish they would leave me alone... hang on, I'll go put on a dvd." And I just thought that was really bad.

Well teenage ones - not really. But there are plenty of our teachers preggers haha!
I think it's really nice if parents are old enough or at least know EXACTLY what they're doing. I know some people are just born to have kids and love and adore them.
