100. That has been know to happen, having a baby as a way of life...
Now, much as that statement can be criticized as being a RW talking point, it doesn't change the fact that young women often do that.

I know it, as a teacher I heard it straight from their mouths.

And it seemed like a good life to these girls, and lots of their friends were doing it.

Having these babies isn't just carelessness with birth control, it can be deliberate.

Whole generations have been doing it, often money comes in "on the down low" through under the table jobs or, dare I say, illegal activities, or combinations of these.

It happens.
