Today on the way to school i was behind a van which had a very unusual eye catching bumper sticker which stated...
"My child got your honor student pregnant"
Now at first this may seem funny and I admit I laughed and found it quite humorous. But then i thought.. there's no wonder why our society is the way it is. Is it acceptable to poke fun at situations that really aren't to funny, maybe your just making light o the situation but really we are playing down a what has become a very common situation, but then wonder why so many families are poor due to droping out of school to have a child, or why so many children need counseling when mom and dad split up because they simply got together for the childs sake. I guess i may be bias considering i deal with this on a daily basis at the law firm but after laughing i looked at a bigger picture and became alittle frustrated... any thoughts?

What an unusual bumper sticker. Who would be bold (or stupid) enough to put that on their car? But the situation itself is not funny. Too many young kids are ending up pregant or are growing in unstable or unhappy homes b/c their parents were teen parents.
