blessing?

Despite society's frowning on the topic of teenage motherhood; some teens take the news as a blessing, a life changing miracle of life that came unexpectedly but is welcomed nonetheless.

Sadly, this is not always the case

1 out of 3 girls living in the United States are expected to get pregnant;

this number changes depending on the state. Despite efforts to promote teen pregnancy, such as national teen pregnancy awareness month (May), teenage girls drop out of school on a daily bases, unable to provide for the new found responsibility their bad decision making brought them.
