    Learning no lessons from the "pregnancy pact"

    I've refrained from talking much about this "pregnancy pact" that allegedly took place in Gloucester, Massachusettes. I'll skip the details - basically it involves teen girls intentionally getting pregnant.

    The reactions to and conclusions being drawn from the situation, however, are sometimes unbelievably short-sighted. Just read this first line from the Associated Press:
    The high school where the principal claimed girls formed a pact to get pregnant is one of the few in Massachusetts with a day care center, leading some to wonder whether that sent a message that teen motherhood is OK.
    Whatever the causes of this outbreak of teen pregnancies were, I'm pretty sure the prospect of having easy access to day-care for their newborns wasn't the tipping point.
