Notes

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.

My Reasons

Teen Mom.

I chose this topic for a number of reasons; I chose it because it matters. I wrote it because it's something affecting teens worldwide and a topic of major concern. I wrote it so that maybe, in the slightest way, the information I provide helps raise awareness and perhaps prevent teens from making reckless, life-changing decisions. The reason I chose this topic is because I believe it to be among the most critical and delicate topic surrounding the youth of today's world.
