Reasons of Teen Pregnacy

           In the Teen Help website, the reasons for teen pregnancy just does not seem to completely be represented. they say Abstinence-only Education is not effective but the fact of the matter is it is absolutely the only 100% preventable way to eliminate one's chance of getting pregnant. Teaching kids that sex at a young age is okay if they use a contraceptive, or a condom is just as ineffective. If one of them does take that chance, but the condom breaks or a they miss a pill and get pregnant, should we applaud them because they listened to our advice in using contraceptives and that it's not their fault? That's complete bologna. It is teaching these kids to try to eat their cake and have it too, but trust me taking care of a baby for the rest of your life at 13 is not a piece of cake. It is setting them up for hardship at a young age no matter how much of a blessing a baby may be. So we should not give an effective solution such as abstinence to be the culprit. Instead parents should teach their kids to value their bodies, keep it holy and enjoy their teenage years in a safe way before the hard part comes.

Change must now be adamant.
