Like I always tell people, training a child is not easy at all because in every stage of the child's life, his or her parents must monitor her and make sure she is on the right path, but then there are certain stages some children get to, and then they feel like they are old enough to decide for themselves without knowing the consequences of their decisions.
Teenage girls are the hardest ones to control because they always hide everything they do away from their parents since they believe they are old enough to go around without their parent's permission, which is very dangerous, especially for girls.
Now let's talk about if my baby girl gets pregnant while seeking admission to the university.
When I was little, I mean when I was in secondary school, I saw countless cases like that where a teenager gets pregnant and their parents would stop them from going to school because they couldn't cope with the shame their baby girl brought to the family, or probably they couldn't afford to train the girl and the child in her womb.
Some parents are just being wicked just to make the girl understand that she shouldn't have taken such a path and let any guy destroy her future.
There was a girl in my class then, when I was in Jss3. She got pregnant, and her mom made sure she gave birth safely, and then she returned to school to finish her education.
Then I didn't understand how shameful that situation could be because the girl couldn't play with her classmates anymore; she was avoiding them from talking about her situation, and I wasn't happy because her mother brought her back to school. After all, I thought she should be at home with the child. But when I became an adult, I then realized that the mother of that girl made a good decision for her by bringing her back to school to finish her education.
Pregnancy is never a disease, but getting it as a teenager is a bad idea, and if I should have a girl who found herself in such a situation well, I believe that is when God wanted her to have the child so she would have the child, and after that, I would change her school so that she could finish her studies with peace of mind.
I know how teenagers react to such people, and that is because they are not in the situation, so they believe they can never make such mistakes.
I am a mother, and I know what it took me to have the child, so I wouldn't let her waste her future over a silly mistake that would pass. I will gladly raise the child as my lastborn, and I will make my girl understand that if she fails to become great in life, that is when she will see the other side of me as a parent because she needs to learn her lesson in a hard way.
As I said before, I have seen some parents dealing with such issues wrongly by stopping their children from going back to school, which I would never do because I value education so much, and the life of my daughter matters to me as well. After all, I gave birth to her, and she must give birth as well, only that she took the wrong path, which I can still correct before it gets out of hand.
