Teenage Pregnancy
Its quite shocking how the alarming rate of young teenage girls are getting pregnant at their age. I was actually watching the Tyra Banks Show a couple of weeks ago that talked about the same exact thing, twelve to sixteen year old girls pregnant. The most outrageous thing I heard was that these girls actually wanted to get pregnant and how they thought that getting pregnant would strengthen their relationships. Many of them didn't even realize how much responsibility it takes to take care of a child nor did they realize how much money is needed yearly to financially support one. These girls were basically being naive about situations that they know nothing about and their solutions was to stay living with their parents and that they were basically going to support her and their babies. These young girls went so far that they were having unprotected sex to purposely get pregnant. Its seems that this problem is just going to get worse if they don't find an adequate solution to it since abstinence nor contraceptive methods work considering these girls aren't even practicing save sex. The only logical solution is for parents to talk to their children at a young age about abstinence.
