I've lived in Detroit my whole life so I don't say this lightly, but I say it truthfully. Some people need to just be written off. We should focus on the next generation. However, legislating bad parents to be good parents won't accomplish that. Screw abstinence, some of these kids are too poor to have activities that would make that a feasible option. Birth control should be pushed HEAVILY. Again, I make none of these comments lightly.

Then why do anything at all? You make this too easy.
