"To Teach High School To Pregnant Teens"


It's a profession of shear trust and mentoring. Passing on knowlege incorporate's talent and a way to deliver that knowlege, to minds easily distracted by trivial pursuits, such as the opposite SEX! My wife is a teacher/Counselor at a "High School" here in Georgia. It's a specialty school for students, mainly girls that get pregnant before they can finish their education... The school is equip with a "Day Care/Parenting Center", that instructs these students in the art of being responsible Parents, and finish "High School"! Period...Now, I know we'er only human and to be human is to faulter if your not paying attention to what's going on, in life... We all can do that, but for the life of me, some make repeated mistakes that cost them their dreams of (not becoming something) because your already someone. However, improving the you that you are. By acquiring a career, that will take you and your family to financial freedom...
The fact is that when children don't graduate from High School. The whole country suffers in some capasity with the exception of those who are able to become small business owner's, or get "GED's" and go on to Technical College/Community College, or even some University. It's a slim chance, but it has been done... I think teenagers have not realize, that every adult that make up the faculty of their school, has been a teen also at one time or another. They are train to teach! Some are better than others, still their there as professionals to pass on the knowlege that's presented in the textbooks, provided for the task of teaching.
We have a great duty as adults and parents, to help our teens to understand how important it is to get an Education. A good education starts at "Home", then it's taken to the school by the teenager. I see my wife, in action, she's serious about what she does. My sister is a High School principal and she's also serious about education too... They are dedicated individuals to their professions. Dealing with teen pregnancy is another added, "tough cookie" to add to education to say the least. To Point fingers and argue, don't solve the problem. However engaging into what your teen is up to, and having talks early about "SEX" could nip the problem in the bud, I'd think. Over all it is the teenager, who ultimately has to be excepting of the information offered to help them become functional human beings in this society, period... The responsibility is laid before them like the road to California, or anywhere... The choice is theirs. We may care over-all. If they turn their backs and throw their hands in the air. Well it is them to find out, if life is truly fair... Either way, they will have to pay, at the present "School"... Or the "School Of Hard Knocks"! Oh well, but what do I know, I don't "Teach"... I'm just here talking to myself...
