>>Why are black girls more likely to be pregnant, unmarried teens than white girls? <<

As stated to me by many black girls attending Metro Campus of Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland, having a baby is a ticket out of poverty. Food stamps, housing, ADC, it all comes with having a baby. Then, the daycare is paid for while mom goes to college on the taxpayer.
That was 1982. Guess who are the mothers of the girls of today? Having a baby while still in high school is the norm for many black girls. And black women take care of their own children (most of the black women I know feel that all financial support for children is on the mom, if a man wants to help, great) so men are really not needed.
However, if that "mass of cells" gets in the way, there is an easy way out.

You need to take a large chill pill. Conservative blacks on this forum have had enough of you. Either you help or be quiet. Otherwise, remove the word "bible" from your handle.
