The ammount of single parents is increasing rapidly in society and is something that needs sorting out right away.
It is not the parent who I feel sorry for (who obviously brought their miserable life upon themselves) but the child.
Most of these single parents are young women or girls. aged 15-21. Personally I find it disgusting how somebody so young and irresponsible can be allowed to keep their child.
I personally feel that when somebody around the above ages has a child it should be taken away from them, and they should be punished. Either community service or jail time. Preferably jail time.
To bring another life into this world so carelessly is an absolutely terrible thing to do and should be completely illegal.
Single parents are just the type of people that society doesn't need and if I am honest, we would all benefit from them being locked up and out of the way.
