Teens today are unstoppable because parents today tend to let go of the responsibility of taking care of their children. Teens tend to go overnight study, group study, picnics, practices on their classmates house, wearing sexy clothes. Thise things are some of the cause why teens get pregnant early. But how are you going to take care of this when one of your close relatives or friends got pregnant at early age. I am here to ask everyone, what should we do when the time like this comes? Should we abort the child?

News of over 17 teens getting pregnant in thesame Institution in the US was a shock to me and i just thought if all of them should terminate this pregnancy at thesame time as well,but NO? There are so many mothers that have their Children at a young age and they are doing perfectly well now. Prevention is better than Abortion.

Education is one good way but some "educated" people are getting pregnant also at an early age. They said the search for heat from the opposite s e x still comes up and all things you learned in school are left out. Most of the pregnant teens are in college and i got an idea of creating an organization at school about this one. Where should i start?

I think thats completely untrue my parents tried to do what was best for me and decided not to let me date or have a normal teenagehood because they never trusted me..yet i never gave them a reason not too. But when i got pregnant they learned whether or not if they tried to protect me i would find away around it. Not all teens go off and show themselves off. I know many pregnant teens who just love eachother and it happens not meaning their bad people . Abortng should never be the result of a pregnancy that is murder to an innocent baby. There are options like adoption. Why kill an unborn baby for something it never did thats punsihing the mother and the baby and its not right its MURDER. Times like that when a teen becomes pregnant she needs support not put downs or nasty looks and commnents. She needs support so she knows she can give that baby a good life. And happy home.

How did you come out of that horrible experience? Did you face some counseling from parents,relatives and friends? What can you advice to all the pregnant teens in the world, based on your experience as a teen mom? I will be quite reliable to hear from an experienced person.

Surely the rate of pregnancy is becoming a tread in this modern world. I think the world bodies like U N O should announce this as a disaster, so that much attention can be atared to.

Did UNO organized seminars and have a master plan against teen pregnancy? And how are we going to help as a normal citizen? Do we have the capabilities of stopping the rampant increase of pregnat teens? Someone told me that guide your friends and yourself and tell them to guide others too. In that way, people might dessiminate the news and stop from doing it.

Abortion is never an option. Both parties the parents and the teenager should take responsibilities for the life that was created through their negligence. Parents do have to take a small time of their life to educate and make their children understand the consequences of doing IT before marriage. Especially on these times where children are more curious and access to it has been very easy compared to before ~Scaflone~

I asked one of my friends and she said that some people do not go to abortion but rather to selling their babies. I was so shocked when she said "sell that baby, you earn and get your problem solved". I tried to ask rich people on how much they are willing to offer to the baby. Some offered 1000 USD and some dont want.
