I just found out that at a local MIDDLE school there are 5 girls b/t ages 12-14 that are pregnant. WHAT?? How can you get pregnant at 12? I mean, I know how, but I wasn't even allowed to talk to boys on the phone at 12. I seriously think I may have still been playing with Barbies. Just makes me sick.
Re: S/O pregnancy pack
Reason #8000 I'm glad A is a boy: I've never heard of a "let's get some girls KU" pact among 12yo boys.
This stuff scares the life out of me. I have a 12yo sister.

Thats crazy. I wasn't physically able to get pregnant at 12 either and I wouldn't want to ever be that young and KU. I hadn't even had my 1st kiss yet at that age. My mom was 16 when she had me (no pact, just accidental) and she always warned me about teen pregnancy. I guess with girls being sexually active younger and younger these days, I will have to make sure I really talk to DD when she hits puberty.
DH is a middle school teacher and he had a conversation last week with another teacher who just had a baby girl, and that teacher said that now that girls are maturing at 9...
When DH repeated the story to me, I stopped him there. 9!!! OMG. My niece is 7 and moody and we keep saying that my sister is going to have to buy her tampons next year... but seriously, 4th grade??? Too young.
