I can't stand when....

I probably shouldn't be writing this because I know it's such a controversial issue, but I've decided I don't care & everyone has opinions.

A dear friend of mine is pregnant. She's my age. I suppose she either wasn't on birth control or she just wasn't careful. Anyways, we grew up together & we pretty much best friends in high school.

I had lunch with her today & she was talking about how her boyfriend was laid off from his job, but he hasn't been looking for another one. How they have no money saved up and her baby is due in February. They have NOTHING for this baby. She's on medicaid. She works full time and is trying to go to school.

I feel sorry for them.

Part of me doesn't though. I don't understand people who get pregnant & can't afford babies. I 100% understand how women WANT to have a baby and experience it all; however, there is a better time if you can't afford it.

I don't agree with people getting on medicaid, food stamps, WIC just because they are pregnant. I understand mistakes happen, BUT you know the risks of having unprotected sex, you know you could possibly get pregnant. So, if you can't afford it then WRAP IT UP!

I don't want to have to pay for your child because you decided to have one, but you can't afford it.

The End! =)
