Kim, Single mothers are sometimes left out of college,
school functions and special programs. Just because a woman has a child, does not mean she wants to forgo her education. With a few adjustments, changes on campus
and understanding from the faculty , they are still in the game. The next time you see a mother pushing a stroller and hauling a book bag and diaper bag, give her a hand or a smile.

It's a really good thing that there's an effort to help student mothers. They are a group of students that should definitely not be ignored and should be helped. They need to get an education too, regardless of the fact that they have children.

At this point I can tell you, the reason why the part-time jobs with benefits dissappeared from the local mall?
A 'young buckaroo' at the age of 60 spoke up, the shareholder forms to remove part-time jobs filled by college students, divorced women, and senior citizens were axed. The minimum requirement to keep benefits went up to 32 hours then 36 and higher.
The person's a 'two-faced' joker not facing reality. If I can then you can too, but no one knows about ''Rumplestilskin''. Your mom doing groceries, and laundry at your single age of 27, or married age of 30 but needs a free babysiter and coook.
yes, Donald Trump, Iocooca, has a whole troop of cooks, butlers, maids,.. they'r all related. The US President has all this, from the start. Just like a Grade School to High school student, no house work at all.

What to say?
The chances of another pregnancy is high.
The chances of the biological parents spliting up is high. Pre-martial sex chances are they are looking back at former mates that kissed.
The chances of people with pre-martial sex divorcing is higher, practically a prediction.
The chances the person will make relatives babysit the child, and demand more.
The chances the parents of the unwanted pregnancy mother will tell their other child to get a job and give up college even higher.
The chances of you finishing college if your sister gets pregnant,needs babysitter help, house help, is ZERO the police are at your door too. Incase you do something, but your not allowed to speak from your parents.
And by the way the father side, has a brother or sister that wants car rides to work every day. Or just borrow your parents MBenz.
In fact it takes 4 people paying rent to raise 1 child, ...
->> make sure the form says: Single, Married, Divorced, Widdowed. Biological Mother, Biological Father.
