* Subverted in "Brenda's Got a Baby" by Music/TupacShakur. The eponymous Brenda (a JuniorHigh student living on the WrongSideOfTheTracks) becomes pregnant ([[{{Squick}} by her 20-something cousin]]), and ends up giving birth on the bathroom floor at school. She tosses the baby in the garbage, but then feels guilty when she hears the baby crying, and takes it out. Played straight in that she is kicked out of the house by her mother shortly afterwards, because the family can't afford another mouth to feed, and (more importantly) social workers are beginning to investigate the family. [[DisposableSexWorker It doesn't end well for Brenda, who is driven to prostitution to support herself and the baby.]]
