Is Parenthood A Big Joke Now?

hmmm...sekarang budak dah jadi bapak budak...

Read here about Alfie Patten who is now a dad..he's 13!!

There are many articles about this shocking news, but I think that is one of the best as it discuss some other aspects as well eg. sex education in school, the concept as premarital sex as a recreation and the biggest question-Who's to Blame...

I was 11 when my youngest sister was born...and when I was 12 I don't think I have any idea how babies are made (is it a blessing or a sign of ignorance?)...

I became a mother at the ripe age of 24, but i still remember the intense pressure it caused me.

Then read here about Nadya Suleman, a single unemployed, no-fixed-income mother of 6 who gave birth to octuplets (twins of 8), making her now a mother of 14, all of whom are under 8 years old. The octuplets are the result of fertility treatment (or rather, boost!). All 14 has the same biological father, Nadya's boyfriend, who donated his sperm for the fertility procedures.

And see here now her website asking for donations.

How you stay sane caring for 14 small kids? (imagine if half of them catch chicken pox!)

*sigh....*

bas,
i've read about nadya tu, tapi baru tau cerita pasal the 13yr-old father, it's so shocking! it won't be easy, but i hope the authority will be able to do something to reverse this declining state of morality.. and the scarier thing is, benda2 camni (sex outside wedlock) dah mula sampai to our own shore..

yes, but you know what, in today's news 2 more sexual partners of the girl claimed could be the father of the baby..so at 14 last year we now know that she at least had 3 partners..
it's like what the writer of the letter in one of your previous posts tu cakapla, penjajahan hollywood-it's what the teenagers now think best/trendy/cool..
about nadya-i hope she delivers what she promised.
