Boy fathers child at twelve and girl at fourteen

They're going to have sex. Give 'em condoms.

They are too young to hear about sex. And sexual education too.

Kukri thinks: if you get government money: you are a government employee.

As employer, the government can and should impose whatever conditions seem right. As employee, the individual should negotiate their best employment deal, then comply with the terms of that contract.

If the government has hired you to raise your children, you must raise them as the government/employer sees fit, or risk termination of employment. If you don't want the government to tell you how to raise your children, quit the job, or renegotiate a better deal.

Make abstinance or condom use a condition of employment. "Surprise" baby? Termination of employment. Underage pregnancy? Termination of employment. School drop-out? Termination of employment.

Make abstinance or condom use a condition of employment. "Surprise" baby? Termination of employment. Underage pregnancy? Termination of employment. School drop-out? Termination of employment.

So you probably end up punishing the baby in many cases because it will grow up in poverty or the parents might even go as far as doing something to it to "make it go away".

At 12 or 13, far from it. It is exactly the right time (according to my parents and my countries educational system). Because that is when a few of them are going to start. This exact same thing happened in my junior high, 15 years ago. Even with decent sex ed at 12 or 13 teen pregnancy is going to happen. You can't stop it totally, you can just try and minimize it as much as possible.

That section is particularly disturbing should it be true. What sort of parent allows their under-age daughter to sleep with somebody? This just highlights that many parents nowadays are at best awful role models - we can see in the article the far from exemplary behaviour of the families, particularly the mother's, overall. At worst some parents are totally incapable of looking after their children. As a result of this poor parenting, these ideas get passed on to their children, then to their children and further on in a never ending cycle of negative ideas.

My mother for one.
