Hahahahaha well I guess I'm apart of the in-crowd. As about 98% of you know, the ones who did their blog on Teen Pregos, there is a ton!! of controversy about teen pregnancy. People say that it is both healthy and unhealthy (totally impartial). There are a lot! of questions that are asked about teen pregnancy-- did the do it on purpose? What was going thorugh their minds? Are they serious? But what most people dont know is that girls that get, or are, pregnant don't do it on purpose.
(According to righthealth.com) The statistics of teenage pregnancy in this day and age are very high . This baby boom started maybe a little bit before the year 2002 and continutes to grow . It seems that every year the ages of teenager who are getting pregnant are getting younger and younger , even as young as 12 or 13 which is when most girls just bein to even start having there first menstrual cycle . There are alot of reasons out there that teenagers out there are having sex , and end up getting pregnant . Alot of them are too scared to talk to there parents about sex , which refrains them from going on birth control and makes the risk for pregnancy go up to extremly high .
(My words) Another reason could be that teenager longs for some sort of bond , because of not having one with the parents or not being close to either parent. Teenage pregnany isnt all about the girls though , it is also about the boys . It seems like sex ed in school doesnt help very much and that it would probably be more convincing if heard from a parent , or being able to confide in a parent .
Yeah, if parents and children were more with each other about sex, then most of these teen pregnancies probably would have never happened.
ReplyDeleteI find the whole 'bond' thing to be quite amusing... but on a serious tone, you should fix those grammatical and spelling errors... there should be no space before punctuation and capital "I"s for when you're speaking about yourself in the first line. I'm just warning you now since Mrs. Basi said she was grading on grammar and punctuation as well as what we write --- Comment on mine please!
ReplyDeleteSo true man, It's strange how things like this work out, huh? If people would just learn to control their urges, stuff like this would never happen.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on the close relationship with parents, but I'm not so sure about the part where it says "But what most people don't know is that girls that get, or are, pregnant don't do it on purpose." There are some teens that want to get pregnant and go against their parents, but anyways nice job with including facts.
