6) THEN get married
7) THEN get pregnant/get spouse pregnant

If people would simply follow those 7 steps, in THAT EXACT ORDER, folks would be amazed how many problems they'd avoid. Learning those 7 steps, and following them, ought to be a high school course.

Instead, we've got a bunch of drug addicted, baby daddy's, single mothers, lazy, no skills folks, and we blame racism/government/etc.

John Lewis has managed to make a career out of blaming racism/govt, when the majority of that problem was fixed 40-50 years ago.



Great advice. I support teaching this in school!
