According to statistics Teen parenting statistics are decreasing. BUT it seems like everywhere I look there is another teen parent. Do you think statistics are right? Are less people choosing abortion? What is the reason in this apparent difference?

My youngest Amanda - She is so sweet and adorable.  What do you think?
I have to say that where I live I dont see many teen parents any more. I want to believe that they are finally getting smart about it, but I do know better than that. As far as abortion I agree that it seems that there is less going on because people are realising how valuable life is and even if they cant care for the child they are more wiling to put the baby up for adoption.

I do beleive that less people are choosing abortion because they've come to relaize there's more to life then killing an innocent baby! I don't think that teens should be having kids because they are still kids them selves and but it's better them having the baby and either keeping it or giving it up for adoption rather than aborting the baby!
