You didn't know that people on welfare get more money for each kid they have? If they weren't getting the money, they would think twice before getting pregnant. So should we just keep paying for every low life that keeps their legs open and pops out kid after kid just so these children can become a statistic?
[SIZE=2]To address long-term welfare dependency, TANF placed a five year lifetime limit on assistance, but allowed states to exempt up to 20 percent of such cases for hardship reasons. States are allowed to reduce this lifetime limit below 5 years, and almost half of the states have done so.

Reason: rude
You may be the one that needs clarification. I didn't mention ANYTHING about how long they receive welfare. I mentioned that they get MORE for more children.
sounds like the parents in the OP's news article nee to go to sex education classes. one so they are not outraged at normal sexual things and can talk to their kids about it. these are the kind of parents who want their children kept in the dark completely or they will allow a "night light" but not truly turn on the light. then this kind of parent can't figure out why we have such a high rate of teen pregnancy and or abortion, and concern about paying more welfare. wake up parents stop being so embarrassed. kids should know about all types of sexual activities. knowing about something does not mean they will engage in it. education is not a bad thing.

Clinton and the Repubs closed a lot of the loopholes.
There is no endless free lunch anymore for "welfare queens".
Here's an anecdote from my life:
When I was in college, a girl (a8 years old) who worked for me at a bakery I was running got pregnant. The father took off to another state as soon as he heard about it. She was extremely religious and conservative and so was her family. She feared her parents and what her BIBLE COLLEGE (a college that even forbade dancing among other things NORMAL people do) would do to her so much that she used Planned Parenthood and had an abortion.
What does this tell us? I know what it tells me...
You are correct, girls do need to be taught how to self examine themselves, BY THEIR MOTHERS!!!
Parents need to freaking put down the remote control and start parenting already!
many parents are too embarrassed to teach their children so they don't say a word. should these kids stay uneducated?
many parents if they have their own hang ups can and do pass them on to their children. a child should be able to have all the facts and make up their own mind how they view sex for themselves.
hats off to all the parents who do teach their child everything there is in the world of sex and answer any questions they may have. it is not however the norm.
