Is high school worse than middle school if so why? if not why?

Why are middle school/high school children so immature?

• Sorry if this seems rude. This certainly doesnt apply to all of them. But there are certain ones out there. I'm a 16year old girl and a junior in high school. I'm a virgin, not because i can't "get any" or because im "bashful", but simply because i'd rather not have some premature penis inserted into me. Anyways, i've recently discovered that there are THREE pregnant middle schoolers. Our middle school goes from grades 5th-8th due to new economic plans for our city (it used to be 6th-8th). But how disgusting is that? 7th graders having sex and having babies? I'm sorry but isn't this wrong?! Do people have any morals anymore? I guess it would be one thing if everyone just ignored it really but people are honestly congratulating them, showering them with gifts as if they've just made it onto the A honor roll. I mean come on they still havent gone to high school or college yet. It's just sad because i remember when i was a freshman a girl was pregnant and basically everyone made fun of her and was really really mean to her. Now things have flipped, apparently you're supposed to congratulate teenage pregnancies and hope that they become a new face on 16 and pregnant? Might as well change that to 12 and pregnant. There's a freshman who has a son who is two years old....There's two sophomore's that are pregnant. I guess everyone's having sex.... But honestly i feel as though people do this to show how bada*s they are. And prove to the world that they love their boyfriends that they've known for two weeks. I guess I just want an answer from someone who's been in this situation. Why did you feel the need to have sex at such a young age? I honestly do not understand. Why do you feel the need to sext? Why can't you love yourself and respect yourself enough to wait for someone you love? (note: i did NOT say until marriage so don't go all religious crazy on me). But honestly, I just want an answer because this is one of the biggest mysteries to me. Why do young kids feel the need to have sex and have their own kids when they have so much life to live. The end.

• Answer:

  You already answered you're own question. It's because they are children.
