good talkEntry #676784
My daughter is a freshman, and she was telling me today about a pregnant classmate. I told her that having a pregnant teenager rated pretty high on my list of terrifying concepts. Hell, it's up right up there with nanite mind control technology and President Palin 1

So my little girl looks up at me with her big, brown eyes and says "You don't have to worry about that Mommy. I have common sense."

Yikes.

"Ya know Kate . . . uh . . . common sense doesn't actually prevent pregnancy. Do you know what does prevent pregnancy?"

"Birth control?"

"NOT HAVING SEX!"

"And I have enough common sense to know that I shouldn't do that at my age."

"I just needed to say it."

"No you didn't."

Sure, that's what she says, but I have a magazine that tells me otherwise. As an interesting aside, she is taking care of an "egg baby" for the next 48 hours. One of its eyes fell of already, but Katie says that won't effect her grade.

1  I'm not being partisan here. You can substitute President Biden and it still works.
