There's a stunning twist to the sudden rise in teen pregnancies at Gloucester High School. Seventeen students there are expecting and many of them became that way on purpose. ( High School Teens Had Pact To Get Pregnant )
Time Magazine first reported that nearly half of the girls confessed to making a pact to get pregnant and raise their babies together. None of them is older than 16.
Principal Joseph Sullivan has not returned calls from WBZ for comment.
Sullivan told the magazine that the pact wasn't the only shocking incident.
"We found out one of the fathers is a 24-year-old homeless guy," he told Time.
According to Time, school officials started looking into the spike in pregnancies after an unusual number of girls came to the school clinic for pregnancy tests. Some came by several times.
"Some girls seemed more upset when they weren't pregnant than when they were," Sullivan told the magazine.
(Ok where are the fathers? If the others are adults like the one who is 24 charges should be brought against them. I thought those who backed so called safe sex said we just need to teach the kids to do it in a safe way and we wouldn't have any trouble. The government schools, and our culture have forgotten to teach and show young people right-wrong. This might be another reason to remove your kids from the government schools.)
