Even being the tops in Europe, the UK still has less than half the teen preg rate as the US (20 per 1000 there compared with 53 per thousand here in 2002)

I have seen the gov't benefits issue here too. I have even seen parents that have pressured their children to have children to continue services...perpetuating the cycle. It really is sad.

Some girls see babies as an alternative to a life/career Some also see babies as their life/career, which I also feel is a bit unnatural now. I have had conversations with girls that only went to uni to trap a man. *shakes head*
