With his words, the TV screen switched to the campus landscape of Gloucester City Middle School, and the female voice narrator said: ”This is the middle school where girls are studying. It has 1,200 students and its medical office conducted 150 times in the last school year. Pregnancy check, but starting from the end of January this year, the school found that a group of girls frequently went to the medical center to ask for a pregnancy test, and the number of pregnancy tests far exceeded the percentage of the same period. What puzzled the school was that the girls ’reactions were very abnormal. , They will be very disappointed; if they are pregnant, their reaction is. ”
”They will cheer loudly and celebrate with high-five, just like winning a big prize.” The headmaster Joseph Sullivan sat on the desk at the screen, he shook his head helplessly: ”This is really incredible. Generally girls are It ’s scared to be confused, but they do n’t. They seem to be intending to become pregnant, which has caught our attention. ”
A document file appeared on the screen. The lens enlarged the title ”Operation Juno: Pregnancy Agreement” at the top of the document. The female narrator said: ”After a school investigation, they found that these girls were planned and agreed to collective pregnancy, and What ’s scary is that there are more than 50 girls ’names on the agreement, accounting for almost one tenth of the girls in the school.”
On the fabric sofa, Wang Yang and Jessica were next to each other, watching the TV screen silently. Seeing the huge ””, Wang Yang exhaled and said softly: ”They are stupid.” Jessica leaned against his shoulder and comforted: ”Baby, don't blame yourself? This is not you Wrong. ”
Wang Yang smiled faintly and asked, ”Everyone says so, Mark, Michael, Zachary, Rachel ... who's wrong?” There are now 17 girls who are pregnant, and they are mothers a year later. When they were only 16 years old, he covered his forehead vigorously, and said more and more loudly: ”Whose fault? They themselves? Their parents? School? America? Juno?
”You know, I don't take myself too seriously, but I can't just say” I have nothing to do with you ”to myself, and then it doesn't matter. But sweetheart ...” He looked at Jessica and asked for help: ”What can I do?”
Jessica kissed him on the cheek, and looked at him tenderly in his eyes, saying: ”Yang, I am worried about you ...” Wang Yang also kissed her face and smiled slightly at her, said: ”It's fine ,I'm okay.”
News reports on the TV screen continued. As the 17 girls were not adults, they were pregnant in addition to the school ’s students and some men in their 20s, Gloucester Mayor Carolyn Kirk Said that the authorities are considering whether to accuse these people. So what are the motivations for girls to become pregnant? Why did this happen?
”Obviously they were influenced by a certain movie.” Family expert Fran Bryson looked at the camera and didn't give a surname, but everyone knew which movie was which, he added: ”The movie makes them think It ’s a cool thing to be pregnant in your teens. They imitate that girl and want to be that girl, so they have the current collective pregnancy. This is a bad social culture. ”
This incident has shocked the entire city of Gloucester. A reporter interviewed passers-by on the streets of this port city. A white woman said: ”It's too bad”, and a middle-aged man said: ”It's unbelievable. I participated for those The men in this incident are ashamed, they should get on the electric chair. ”... And the reporter interviewed some teachers and parents, who spoke less secretly than experts.
”It's” June ”.” Teresa Mede, a teacher wearing black-framed glasses, said to the reporter's microphone: ”My students are all hooked on this movie. I think about Juno's pregnancy, she The care and understanding of parents and friends, and the warm and touching plot have made them yearn. ”She explained:” The economy has not been very good in recent years. Many of my students are single-parent families. They are not in normal tutoring. When they grew up, they wanted to be as cool as Juno, and they wanted Juno ’s warm family. ”
So it is the responsibility of parents? The screen was switched to the parents again, and a white male parent said sadly: ”I also want to accompany her more, but I have to work 14 hours a day, no work, no money, no money, no life.” Another The female parent was very angry. She almost scolded the camera. ”The director has a great responsibility. He knows that he has the ability to influence children, but he gave this movie to them. When it was first released, I was worried, I already knew ”
”The director is a **** ...” Wang Yang shook his head mockingly, leaning weakly on the sofa. Jessica embraced his waist with both hands and a sweet smile, comforting: ”You are not, I know that” Juneau ”does not teach them to get pregnant early, everyone knows.”
”Parents always seem to have their reasons. Let us listen to the real thoughts of the person. This girl is one of the initiators of Operation Juno, but she withdrew at the last minute. What did she think?”
Following the voice of the narrator, the picture shifted to a girl with mosaic on her face. She said: ”We watched” Juneau ”in the cinema that day. She suddenly said,” I have a good idea. ” I agreed, they said it was cool, and they could be the focus of the school, they got the care and love of their parents and friends, and there was a cute baby. Later we went to pull others to join, they also thought so, everyone said 'We are going to do a big cause' ”
”Then why did you quit later?” The reporter asked. The girl shrugged her shoulders and thought for a while before saying: ”I also like Juno very much, is she cool? Isn't it? Magic Yang is not trying to make us like that, he is saying that early pregnancy is not a joke. Also When Juno was pregnant, she had many difficulties. I was a little scared. I did n’t know if I could be as strong and cool as her, so I quit. ”
Jessica suddenly looked at Wang Yang with a smile, and said: ”Smart girl” Wang Yang smiled, and the tense heart loosened a little, and it was a lot better.
