Christians bring so much judgment on themselves by doing this. My argument isn't so much with her behavior, or with his, or his grandmother's. It's with the cops for arresting him and not just telling the lady to deal with it herself and stop wasting their time.

Yeah. I agree. I had not even commented on the main issue because I was drawn into the sideshow over her pregnancy at a young age.
I haven't seen The Nativity, but I hear that this is a major issue brought out in the story of the incarnation. Namely, Mary was in her early teens and was judged by those around her for being pregnant and not having been married yet.
This mother is at her wits end. She is ready to give up her child because she can no longer handle him. The call to the police was a plea for help. Too bad someone is not involved in this boys life who can set him straight. He is headed for hard times, and it seems to grieve his mother that he has no sense of conscience over doing wrong.
