It does seem like everyone is either married or has kids or both or was at one time. I’m in Texas, and I’d say that’s more the minority here.

But once you close the free clinic down, there's no way anybody can learn about how the reproductive system works or how to prevent pregnancies (yeah, schools, whatever...). There was another girl in my middle school I didn't know that well that got pregnant in the sixth grade. Knowing some of the other students, I wouldn't be suprised if it was a cousin love-child. Fortunately, I was reared in the city and, as so, I have returned to my homeland. It couldn't be sweeter! I concur… there were many pregnancies in my circle of friends, even a set of twins.
