Mandate all middle schools and high schools to include a parenting class for both female and male students

It is an ongoing and steadily increasing issue; teen pregancy in the United States. Child abuse and neglect and children having children takes a toll on society as a whole. Single parenting for young parents and grandparents having to step in to care for children their children can't care for and the overwhelming cost of childcare and medical insurance has many Americans living in true poverty. All schools should incorporate in their curriculum parenting classes that also include a realistic approach to dealing with life stressors and the importance of both parents raising a child even if not together, financial literacy, and, psychology to give students the tools in case they become a statistic.
