that boils down to bad parenting.

People should have to pass multiple tests before they should be allowed to become parents.

When enough people view the Morey Show etc. as entertainment rather than an insult, in many cases a racist insult, in order to keep it on the air, I'd argue society as a whole has a problem.

Instead of dealing with bad parenting we turn our heads and throw money at more teachers, police and ultimately jail guards to compensate for the bad parents’ actions and the subsequent results. But then again faulting a 15-16 yr old for bad parenting is akin to a 2-3 year old sticking their hand in a flame. It's a catch-22. Both get burned but the injury to the new mother is far worse. Perhaps going after the sire's parent(s) as well, provided he was underage, for support and to recoup or limit the government's role as primary supporter would be a detriment?
