Ok guys, Im somewhat at a loss. Most questions on this website tend to be at least somewhat mundane. Stuff that, while it could be very important to the poster, isnt life threatening or seriously life altering.

However, every once in a while, we come to the ones that ask a question about something where they stand to screw either their own, someone elses, or both lives.

Case in point, Ive just answered the second question from a girl who is 16 and wants to get pregnant when shes single, living at home, and basically incapable of supporting herself, much less a baby.

Now, this is not the only example, just a very recent one. Worst of all, many of the questioners in these cases are completely opposed to opposing points of view. They are determined that theirs is the right course of action, and are determined to screw themselves and others in the process.

So, my question to the masses, is does anyone know how to get through to idiots like this? Does anyone even think its possible? Im asking mostly those 18 and up, anyone can respond but Im looking for viewpoints from people who are at least looking back at the high school perspective, not in the throes of it.

Thanks, and sorry for length.

Hey..Well, I'm not 18&up, but in my opinion,
I don't think you can tell anyone what to do on this website since we don't know their background...but we can help them and influence their decision.
On the question where the 16 year old girl asked how to tell her parents she wanted to have a baby, I responded by telling her about the responsibilities of parenthood.--The decision is hers to make.
All we can do is give advice and try to influence them..if they'll even listen. Whatever mistake they make, it's their mistake..not ours. We can't say we never warned them.

(Rating: 5) Yeah, I get that. I guess I just need to evaluate whether or not its time for me to stop participating around here.
