Well, yes, there’s that. However, some of it (not talking about Palin’s daughter, I don’t have a clue what happened in hre case) is on purpose (you might be surprised how many girls get pregnant sorta kinda on purpose). Some get pregnant even using birth control (ok let’s see a show of hands! ;)). Some just think it won’t happen to them, or think if they don’t use something then it’s like it was spontaneous, and for some it’s an issue of drinking and being in situations where things happen. And others as well. But, to imagine they don’t know about contraception, even if their school teaches abstinence is totally and completely stupid.

How about this scenario? Two young people fall in love and then do what comes naturally. OK, so they jumped the gun. AZIF it hasn’t happened a million times before and will happen a million times after! It’s the HUMANITY, folks!
I do family genealogical research. You’d be surprised how many times I find a wedding date followed by the birth of a first child LESS THAN nine months later!
I just smile and say, “WOW! Great-grandpa? Uncle Ben? Aunt Margaretha? Who woulda thunk it!”
Where do you think the term “love child” comes from?
