Could I have taken other measures to prevent it from happening? Of course. But people could also take other measures to stay alive if they get into an accident. But this is why we call them accidents. We never intend for them to happen but they do.

Having kids out of wedlock is more common than you think. Besides, what's so wrong about it? Does it make me less of a person? Life has a shitload of speed bumps and this is one of them in my case. So what? That makes me an idiot?
