So, in a small town in Kansas, known as Andover, there was a high school known as Andover High. A young girl by the name of Missy, a newly married eighteen year old high school senior, read an article on the Internet that seemed to have caught her attention a little too much. Missy is the type of girl that likes things to be bigger and better the second time around than the first.
And the article read...
As summer vacation begins, 17 girls at Gloucester High School are expecting babies — more than four times the number of pregnancies the 1,200-student school had last year. Some adults dismissed the statistic as a blip. Others blamed hit movies like Juno and Knocked Up for glamorizing young unwed mothers. But principal Joseph Sullivan knows at least part of the reason there's been such a spike in teen pregnancies in this Massachusetts fishing town. School officials started looking into the matter as early as October, after an unusual number of girls began filing into the school clinic to find out if they were pregnant. By May, several students had returned multiple times to get pregnancy tests, and on hearing the results, "some girls seemed more upset when they weren't pregnant than when they were," Sullivan says. All it took was a few simple questions before nearly half the expecting students, none older than 16, confessed to making a pact to get pregnant and raise their babies together. Then the story got worse. "We found out one of the fathers is a 24-year-old homeless guy," the principal says, shaking his head.
You'd better believe that this caught Missy's attention. And especially since she was a married woman now and all married women were to produce a child within the first year of marriage in her family. She thought about how these girls seemed to come together and made a pact to raise their children together. "What if I can start something like that in my school?" Missy wondered, as she continued reading parts of the article.
The girls who made the pregnancy pact — some of whom, according to Sullivan, reacted to the news that they were expecting with high fives and plans for baby showers — declined to be interviewed. So did their parents. But Amanda Ireland, who graduated from Gloucester High on June 8, thinks she knows why these girls wanted to get pregnant. Ireland, 18, gave birth her freshman year and says some of her now pregnant schoolmates regularly approached her in the hall, remarking how lucky she was to have a baby. "They're so excited to finally have someone to love them unconditionally," Ireland says. "I try to explain it's hard to feel loved when an infant is screaming to be fed at 3 a.m."
So, the new Mrs. Margera talked with her husband about it and since he was all about rebellion, he decided that his wife's idea was a brilliant way to prove that. So, the search began for Missy, to spread the word of her idea to the students, trying to recruit as many for this big pact as humanly possibly. Although, she waited until she got back from her honeymoon of course, which lasted a week after she read the article and came up with the idea.
Do you have what it takes to be apart of something this big? Well,
we'll see if you can handle the pressure to get pregnant.
