  • Palin Teenage Pregancy.

    What no one is considering here is the possibility that this young girl could have been coerced/pressured by her boyfriend into having unprotected sex. She also could have been raped/incested. And given her mother's zero tolerance stance on abortion, that would mean that the possibility exists that this young girl is being forced by her mother to ...

  • I also support Bristol Palin's Choice

    But not her mom's ticket. I have a variation on Rachael Larimore's story. I was born in the 60's, as was my sister. I know that she was born to a 13 year old mother, but I don't know the circumstances of my own birth mother. Both of us were adopted by my parents as infants. If we were conceived after Roe v Wade, perhaps neither of us would ...

  • Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..

  • marriage does not guarantee success

    I take issue with the idea that ''out-of-wedlock births are a national catastrophe''. I believe the national catastrophe is a lack of accountability. I think that single parents raising childred without the support of the absent parent should be looked at as ''deadbeat parents are a national catastrophe''. The parents remaining with the ...

  • Re: Your Beautiful Study.

    Spiker, seriously I would like to thank you. You have given me one of the better reads that I have had in a while. I intend to respond to your other thread, but I don't know that I can get there tonight or tomorrow. Yet for now this study is definitely worth highlighting and walking through together. The article you quote isn't about changing ...
