I don't personally think that many of these women had much 'choice'. Although in theory they had the 'benefit' of a State Education, the schools they probably attended were thronged with badly-behaved and unmotivated students, and their parent/s couldn't have cared less about whether they did well, or even attended regularly. Sexual images, the media etc encouraged them to become precociously promiscuous, and lack of moral guidance did nothing to persuade them not to have sex at an early age. If one wishes they could have pursued a career, a profession or respectable work, this wasn't on the cards for most of them. One can't be surprised or annoyed that they have babies and need housing and Benefits. But (as I keep saying, rather feebly) I can't see how to break the cycle and obtain a better deal for them.
