What benefits whould this have? I am writing a Thesis on getting a program started through the government requiring parents to have a parenting lecture or class during their hospital stay. Any comments are appreciated. Thanks!

i wat to take the class and i don't care if i get credit or not just so i can learn what people learned in parenting class.

Do you think both parents, the mother and Father should attend a mandatory parenting and financing class before they have a baby. It would be free by the government.

I feel that everyone should have to take a parenting class before they can graduate because just about everybody in the world will be parents some day. There are a ton of teen pregnancies and the teens will need to know how to take care of the baby. It is sad but I know a 13 yr old that already has 2 little kids. I don't understand how a 13 yr old can handle taking care of a child.
