Teen Pregnancies and How to Help With Them

June 27th, 2011

We are living in a world today, a world with innovation and liberty. It is a fact that the new generation is always on the stage of discovery. They tend to try different things especially when it comes to sex; we must admit that teens are curious about it. Statistics say that the rate of birth in teenagers has risen to 200 percent since the 60′s, and one out of four women gets pregnant at the age of 18 and half of it will be pregnant by the age of 21. If this is the case, parents must be cautious in educating their children about teen pregnancy.

Reasons of pregnancy:

Experts say that several reasons affects teen pregnancy. One of the main reasons is because they believe that the baby will bring changes in their lives like having some friends or getting closer to their families and their boyfriend. But what they don’t know is that having a baby adds more responsibility to their life. Pregnancy is a life changing experience. Parents must tell their children that pregnancy is not just a game of playhouse; they must instill in their kids that pregnancy is not a solution to a problem, or should be used as an excuse for rebellion. Pregnancy will change their lives for a lifetime.

Effects to a country:

Many countries have been promoting contraceptives and safe sex for teens, largely because of the astounding inflation in population rate these past decades. One good example of this is the Red China. They implemented the two child policy because of over population. If a citizen is expecting a third child, the mother is obliged to abort the baby or they will be executed for violating the law. That is why authorities in China are usually one of the top rated users of pregnancy test like the elisa kits test to determine pregnancy among its women early on.

Statistics say that population in China has risen to 2 billion in the 90s alone. The government is in the verge of scarcity of resources and famine if this would continue. It is believe that, if all people in China will jump together, it would cause an earthquake in the Pacific and may cause catastrophe to nearby countries. A seemingly hilarious idea, but would actually cause serious impact if taken seriously.

Solution:

Teenagers are always curious when it comes to sex. They would do anything just to ease their selfish pleasure and we cannot hold them back if they are determined to do it. Teenagers are usually common buyers of pregnancy kits or elisa kits. At such an early age, they already know what to do and what tests to perform when suspecting pregnancy. So, before innocent flirting and youthful adventures lead to pregnancy, parents should make them understand the responsibilities and consequences of pre-marital sex.

Many Christians are against sex education because they claim that it is immoral to teach young children about sex. This practice will lose their innocence if they would be exposed to such immorality. In my own opinion, sex education must be taught at home and in schools. It is the best place for such topics where teenagers would best grasp the underlying cost and gain sex.

Take note that abortion is not a solution to teen pregnancy. If you would know the side effects of abortion you would think twice before doing it. It is said that abortion can poison the mother if some parts of the child that has been aborted is left inside the mother’s womb.

I would take the big NO to abortion because it not only unethical but against morality as well.
