I can understand the girl from Glasgow much easier than I can some of these other British accents, maybe because I have worked with Scots in the U.S. And I agree they sound congested a lot of the time.

These kids really aren't any different than some kids in the United states that are in bad family environments

[@millennialodyssey5956]

They are adults at 16 which makes things much harder for them. There is a difference. Even though many teens here cannot get jobs or work decent hours to sustain a healthy income in order to pay for the costs of living at 16 because labor laws, we also are not treated as adults at 16 which when it comes to the legal system that makes a huge difference for kids who have multiple instances of crime on their records before the age of 18. It's also rare to find a young single mom with no income to be rejected for benefits or aka here in the U.S food stamps and welfare. But since the rise of inflation that has changed greatly since now the system is being flooded with people signing up for these programs and now its getting harder to be approved for help than it was 10 years ago.

The size of your stove or fridge has nothing to do with your size. Also the UKs obesity rates are the highest in Europe, not as high as the US but still pretty bad. People need to stop eating junk and fast food. Lean protein and veg are the way to go

Beverly, girls who have/want babies so young are in emotional need for unconditional love. A girl without strong love and an emotional support from their fathers look for it in other males (boyfriends) and a baby is an emotional tie to the father of the baby.
