A child that rejects warning will fall into destruction, that's what the Bible states. These girls were being warned before they fell into the 'destruction'.

No one should pity 'em, because indirectly, this is what the topic is about. PITY THE WAYWARD GIRLS.

@ elusakin   well it's not about pity...it's about the unborn children...the innocent kids for who none of this is their fault so we should see beyond the reasons of just being vindictive outrightly.

Kenyawest, have you missed the multiple areas where I stated that we to take care of those involved in the single motherhood institution? As for involving government, I completely disagree. I believe that government should stay out of it. Nigeria does not need to implicate any kind of social program for single motherhood. In fact, it should not. It will only encourage single motherhood, and we do not want to encourage it. Giving money to single mothers just because they are single mothers, and performing services for single mothers (at federal expense) just because they are single mothers, is nothing less than mass encouragement of an institution we highly disapprove of. Simply put, the government does not have to be involved.
Please elaborate how Nigeria currently takes care of single mothers.  For those single mothers that fall through the crack, what are you proposing for them and their children?
Will you be comfortable if the State government got involved?
Will you be comfortable if the local government got involved?

Single parents should look for single parents for partners, if it takes them a longer time to get a complete single person. What is wrong in that? or is that not also an option?

Kenyawest, I never said that Nigeria took care of single mothers. Rather, I said that our various cultures had/have ways of handling with single motherhood. Also, I am not thoroughly comfortable with state and/or local government involvement, but I am more comfortable with the local governments than I am with the state government.

Baur72, the stigmatization is aimed more towards the institution of single motherhood and not necessarily the single mothers.

How do you propose that the local government handle single mothers in Nigeria?  Where will they get the funding from?

Why are single mothers stigmatised in d society?i mean they say ....NEVER SAY NEVER.Most ladies dat say such can neva happen to them find themselves in dis kind of situation.Now d question is...why d rejection and scorn they face in d society? i think most teenage single mothers should be counselled instead of d stigmatisation.wats ur own view to this issue?

As for Me. . . no ejection, no rejection..  .. .. they should be welcomed & be treated like mothers that they are no matter what!!

Me I Love mothers...  Kiss

Hi guys, as a single mother I also feel that it is not right to stigmatize single mothers.  Well, in my country people are viewing it differently nowadays because there are so many single parents in South Africa (having children out of wedlock).  The best way to look at it is to see how it happened for one to be in that kinda situation.

I fell in love with an Igbo man in 2005 and when I fell pregant he told me how he had a wife back home and I should have an abortion, this I refused.  Had a beautiful baby girl and she's now 3 years old and her father has never contributed towards her wellbeing.  I am facing all the responsibilities by myself.  I was hopelessly in love with the man to an extent that I did not think of  any complications when my child was conceived.  At the time of my pregnancy some relatives did say how stupid I was and all that but at least my family was very supportive.

I don't regret having my daughter she brings me all the joy in world and its just unfortunate that she doesn't know her roots. to all single mothers just stay positive and don't think of people who stigmatize us because it will only hurt our feelings and stop us from moving forward.
