25. I can't believe she's so naive as

to think being an unwed mother would in any way be less than openly welcome by the Christian school. It's not exactly breaking news that they would oppose illegitimate children. And the nonsense about being in a committed relationship and probably would have been married simply shows her own level of hypocrisy. I would love to hear exactly why she and her fiance couldn't manage to get married before she got pregnant.

While I personally have no problem with people living together, and although I also think it's really a much better idea to get married before having a baby, in this case she should have had some better sense of what teaching at a Christian school is all about.
