Goddlefrood responds:

This could be a tricky one to keep on topic and tied to canon, 
but speculation can certainly be made and here's mine:

The unwritten chapter of Chamber of Secrets was originally to 
have been entitled: 'Moaning Myrtle's Shame'. Tom dealt with 
this shame - doubly shameful in his case - by setting the basilisk 
loose in the castle to take care of the problem. A drastic solution 
perhaps, however the wizarding world is not a tolerant place when 
it comes to teen pregnancy.
