Massachusetts Pact Fact

Gloucester, Massachusetts - 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 blame hit movies like Juno and Knocked Up for glamorizing young unwed mothers, others blame the new under age pregnancy poster child, Jamie Lynn Spears...
But principal Joseph Sullivan knows at least part of the reason there's been such a spike in teen pregnancies. 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.
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.
