Lots of wisdom here. She should just issue the occaisional press release about stuff in Alaska for awhile. And spend more time educating her daughter.

You can educate girls all you want to but sometimes they do what they want to do no matter what parents, etc have tried to teach them. There is such a thing as peer pressure. Believe me I know what I am talking about since my extended family have had 4 pregnant teens. 2 got married but I do not see that happening to the other 2. Heck, I just love them the same. Everyone makes mistakes and we all have done so.

I love listening to old cowboy western music and realized that girls do not have heroic models to copy. Everything is if it feels good, then do it. I love my child and teen idols such as Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, Pat Boone, etc. There were millions of others just like me who wanted Roy and Dale to be our parents. They are family heroes to my family for what they did for one of my nephews. And, don’t get me started on the stupid clothes that teens and younger kids are wearing these days. We would have been sent home if we had on junk like that. No one is perfect and we all make mistakes.

Don't confuse "educated" with moral or disciplined.
