A controversial subject!

It is to do with the pregnancy rate of young girls in Great Britain being the highest by a long chalk compared with other countries in Europe.
The monumental amount of money to take these usually unmarried young girls through their pregnancy, the Hospital costs, midwifery and Hospital beds, and then supporting them indefinitely with homes, finance and free services thereafter (prescripions, free school meals and any other health requirements that arise from that pregnancy) is becoming astronomical.
You only have to watch something like "Jeremy Vile" , sorry I mean "Kyle" to see examples, for instance yesterday a sixteen year old boy had got two girls pregnant, the outcome being three children while he is still at school. He is not with either of the two mothers one of whom has two children from him which the government has to keep. There would be more money left for Hospital beds, shorter waiting lists for the rest of us, more housing available, more money for pensioners and disability help where it is needed etc and now they are cutting grants for further education. What is the solution? I have some ideas......

I'm not surprised at the last posting as due to the free and easy way to utilise retrospective contraception (ie abortion) women in their 20's. 30's and 40's don't seem to bother about safe sex any more and they often feel liberated in their middle years, after their children are grown and they are divorced or have split with a previous husband/partner to let their hair down and behave like irresponsible teenagers - even giving the latter a bad name. This is not true of all 20's, 30's. 40's and even 50 year old women before I get shot down!

How would you change it? Would you change it?
