It's really hard to participate when your pregnant or raising young kids, even with their grandmother.

Yet another generalization. To be sure, the teen pregnancy rate for black girls has been going down (thank God!).

White people don't know grammar.

Touche'. I recant.

But I can remember a time.
I was teaching drawing in a community college, in what you'd call an "urban setting,." I had about 14 students, most were 18-20 year olds. All save one were mothers. The exceptional one, the one with promise, was pregnant by the end of the semester.

It was heartbreaking.
