It was reported here in the UK today that there will be GCSE courses in parenting for school children who either plan on becoming parents or who are ALREADY pregnant/got girlfriend pregnant. They'll get the standard certificate on completion and there's NO lower age limit on the course, so girls as young as 12 have apparently already taken/started the course. School boys who are due to be fathers will also be encouraged to take the course.
There are already 40,000 teenage girls a YEAR in the UK who fall pregnant and decide to have their babies. So now the Government has decided to pat them on the back and give them a qualification for it...wonder how many we'll have next year?
Ok, is this madness or am I missing some point here?
