It can hold 40 students(female of course) and they provide education in the morning and krafwork and parenting skills in the evening

The Star online qouted this as Hope For Pregnant Teens

I was really happy when I heard about this project...
Many people including NGO and the public disagree about this programme because they feel that it is inviting and encouraging pre-marital sex or sex outside the wedlock
I agree with their view about this but then again shouldn't we have a look at a greater aspect and think outside the box?
Let me say that I'm against pre-marital sex because sex outside marriage is wrong for the Catholic faith and also other religion
You might be wondering why in the hell that I'm happy about this project and support it
Its because I feel that by this way...those who have made mistakes in their lives will be given another chance to redeem themselves and also give the little cute baby hope to live
By this project, I believe that abortion and baby dumping cases would reduce tremendously
Although this kind of school might not be suitable for our custom which is the East
But I really hope and pray that the public will be more open to accept this so that teens who made mistakes and are in trauma may find peace and support from this project
Which one of us have not make mistakes in our lives?
What really makes us human and strong is not by condemming others but show our support and encouragement towards them
All of us should give pregnant teen girls another chance to live their life and bring up their baby properly and correctly
This school also provides couselling and guidance which is fantastic because pregnant teens might be in trauma after falling to honour their families name or her boyfriend leave her to bring up the baby all alone
This might be a voodoo to our society and culture
But I urge all of you (the society) to accept this project as a way for these teens to turn into a new leaf and this project is also for the better good of mankind
What would you rather see?
A dead infant in a dustbin?
Or a pregnant teen seeking education and skills to bring up her baby and also giving her baby a chance to live
I would also urge pregnant teens to seek PROFESSIONAL help when dealing with these kind of cases because your friends might not be educate to educate you or advise you on these
For Christians you can always seek help from you local Priest or Pastor
For Muslim you can seek help from your Utaz
For those who prefer local support group then you can check out this website

But as I said I disagree with pre-marital sex so I hope that our country Malaysia shall educate youths on Sex and the importance of it by Sex Education in schools
