She can always fire one of her own staff (on whatever pretext she deems necessary) to give that boy the position.

Their concern typically ends at the moment of birth. Pre-birth, it's a precious life that needs saving. Post-birth, it's just another person to get denied universal health care, denied a decent living wage, and eventually to be sent off to die in a war for no good reason.

You realize the crush thing was a joke, right? I just think you should be a little more even handed when it comes to criticism. Call out the criticisms that you think are unfair and explain why, but stop attacking everyone who has legitimate criticisms. It does no good. |

It's too easy to play the "LOLCONSERVATIVES" game, but I don't think it's entirely fair to go around crowing that the parents failed because she got knocked up. I don't care what the parents tried to instill in their kids, shit happens. Girls get pregnant whether or not the parents say "don't have sex" or "okay, just be sure to use a condom."
As for the boyfriend, I dunno. I understand that good money can be made in certain trades without a diploma, and it's not that uncommon for kids to do that in some areas and end up just fine. But I still think he should suck it up and finish high school. Maybe it's pride saying "I want to provide for my new child," but it's not like these crazy kids are going to end up destitute because he finishes high school instead of jumping into the workforce. |

I certainly do think it's best to at least take the GED in short order if you're not going to finish, since it's harder to pass later and you'll need that certification should you change your mind and decide to go to college (or into many kinds of jobs). Based on the AP interview all this is coming from, he'll be working as an apprentice electrician in the oil fields; to me the fact that he's going for that, rather than stocking shelves or flipping burgers, suggests that he's serious about acquiring longterm marketable skills now.
Are his political leanings even known? He said in the interview that he hadn't registered to vote, doesn't "know anything" about Obama except "he seems like a good guy, I like him" but that naturally he'd be rooting for his future mother-in-law. And that's the last I'm going to say about it, because I feel silly reading the tea leaves for someone I really know nothing about. |
