BTW, how come there is so much teen-age pregnancy in the UK (IIRC )? Any UK posters can shed a light on that?

Isn't it obvious? They are, after all, located that much closer to the backward people of the U.S. than all the rest of us.

Hmm.

I was referring to your obvious bias and rash generalizations against people of the U.S., not against people of the Catholic faith.

Somehow, that managed to pass completely over your head, too.

You're wrong. You read too much in my post.

Maybe I did. It would be a welcome surprise if it were so.

I think sex-ed is one of the few subjects where teachers don't have to worry about their students paying attention

In our catholic grammer school, they segregated us and only the girls got sex ed. An interestesting concept.

It was taught by a 65 year old nun that if she had ever had sex it couldn't have been in the last 45 years.
So yes, the girls said it was quite boring.

I hadn't thought of that.

I take it you found your own way

But, but... there are a host of other things beyond just a "big belly." Given what I've been told about a close friend's recent pregnacy it boggles the mind to think of someone carrying a baby to term and not knowing she was pregnant.

However, this is very, and I really mean very common... In rural zones, catholic schools (at least in ONE catholic school ), “favelas”…. Everywhere you can find ignorance, you can find teen pregnancy. It’s not so difficult to ignore a lot of things if you don’t know what to expect… especially if your body is experiencing many of changes, more than you can understand... Remember, not many time before that, just on other day, this girl was really a girl, not even in the puberty…
Believe me, an unaware girl can go through the whole process without notice.

In general, this ruins the life of both, mom and baby.

Nothing wrong. But being a little more "mature", the mother increases a lot the chances of the child.
