Separate schoolgirls from mothers

Why must schoolgirls be begged when they fall pregnant?

Why must schoolgirls be begged when they fall pregnant?

Our government has been too soft on these kids. They think they are everything. They disrespect adults, including their teachers. They talk to them anyway they feel.

I think it's because they do not know they have freedom of speech because of the same people they disrespect.

Firstly, school is for those who are interested in education, not to be mothers. Secondly, pregnancy is for married women, not young girls who have no experience in raising babies.

As soon as a girl is pregnant, she must stay away from school and only come back when the baby is two years old. Mothers must be separated from girls.
