What does a 12 year old do to decrease her chances of being raped? And how is she expected to know these things? And if you acknowledge that there is no difference in the degree of culpability of the victim, then we're back to the question of how the circumstances are relevant at all to the subject at hand in the first place.
a 12 year old isn't likely to be a tax payer, or gainfully employed.
your "bitch" in this analogy is the parents, not the child. they can do plenty to help mitigate the risk of their child becoming sexually active, and/or producing children, but the problem is you are trying to introduce a false sense of disgust and hatred for the parents. That we do find them to have a financial responsibility doesn't mean we think of them as bitches that deserve their kids to be pregnant.
