This article is moving, and so typical of many young families. Too often young people catapult themselves into parenthood when they should be growing up, graduating, exploring relationships and the future. Instead they are worrying about taking care of others when they've yet to learn how to take care of themselves. How can we get young people to realize how drastically unprotected sex can alter their lives? Not that we ever regret having our children, but what's the hurry? Do you find this valuable?
