Round here in Lincolnshire, teenage motherhood is very commonplace. There isnt much hope of finding work around these parts, so the common knowledge is to get pregnant, say 13 or 14 years old, and thats the latest ! The reason being, you dont have to go to school, or college when ya older, ya get benefits, and when ya hit 16 ya get ya own flat !
But thats not my gripe. Teenage mothers are the worst simply because of pushchairs.
I was on the bus today to a job interview. Usually takes me 20 minutes from my house to town. 35 minutes later I eventually get there. The reason why I was late? young mothers with the biggest pushchairs youve ever seen in your life ! At one stop there were 3 kids ready to jump on the bus and none of them had the sense to fold up there pushchair, i say pushchair it was more like an APV. So eventually they got on the bus. And all they were talking about were what each of there pushchairs have, as if they are trying to justify why they are so massive !
One woman was bragging that hers was so easy to control it was like it just went the way she went. Wherever she walked her pushchair was so easy to control it was like carrying her baby without the weight.
Another was bragging that hers feels easy to control also. HOWEVER ! hers came with a car safety seat ! SHES ON THE FU.CKING BUS !
Then eventually came the prices. The cheapest was the woman who didnt say much, hers cost £275, the dearest, which turned out to be the one without the car seat cost £450 which her mother bought !
GOD HELP US !
