if you don't believe in it. If you come from a culture where it's expected, then you do it - you might even look forward to it.

All the stats say that a child is better off with two parents. So, this child will end up with two parents.


I am NOT a fundie, but I must admit that if this girl has only had sex with one guy, and that guy has only had sex with her, and they both knew that if she got pregnant, then they would get married, then everything is pretty much going according to plan.

From their point of view, getting pregnant is one easy way to speed up the marriage process, to get parents to stop pushing for college if you don't want to go, to get parents to get over qualms about your boyfriend when he offers to marry you, etc.

I am quite sure that Crystal Palin knew what she was doing start to finish.
