I've got a family and I drink cups of tea

Guardian readers, sensitive liberals one and all:

I'm pregnant and single. How will I cope financially?

"Do change your mind, have an abortion, and accept that you have been stupid and irresponsible by becoming pregnant. Determine to wait until you are in a loving, stable relationship before having children. Grow up in the mean time; you sound like a rather silly teenager and not a mature and thinking young woman."

"Just how staggeringly selfish, irresponsible and needy is that? Another child growing up with an absent father. Another fractured family. 'Will I be able to cope financially?' The question beggars belief. If you cannot find yourself a man who actually wants to have children with you - and your question speaks volumes on this matter - well, that's life."

There's a function in the ARM C runtime library called scanf_really_real.
