However, in some cases, women can be conniving and skimp on birth control pills and get pregnant by mistake by a man with good genes. There are many of those out there as well as the selfish men whose partners believed were good hearted and loyal. Women can also be to blame sometimes. In a case like this, where a man is tricked into believing the woman is taking a form of a contraception, I dont think the man should have to be involved with the aftermath. If he firmly gave the understanding to the woman, that he doesnt want a baby in the first place, then the woman should take full responsibility for her actions of sneakiness. It is a serious thing to bring a child into this world. Some people are simply not able to be parents. For the people, who are honest from the start, I have sympathy. However, I have zero compassion for the other irresponsible deadbeats who walk out on taking care of the children they were aware of creating from the start.…
Teenagers who become mothers have a very slim chance of having a good future. If a teenage girl gives birth while still in high school, she will most likely drop out to care of the baby. They also might not have the support of their family and therefore do not receive the knowledge of how to properly care for the baby. The mothers would be forced to rely on public assistance and advice on how to raise the child. However, if they do marry the father, they might end up divorced and have to raise their baby as a single parent.…
Teenage mothers lack a level of maturity that comes with age and experiences, they may try to hide the pregnancy, not take care of themselves and continue with risky behavior that could jeopardize the health of the infant and the mother. Their lack of maturity may led them to believe that everything will be alright, that they can be a great mother, that their boyfriend will eventually see the light and step up to the plate. But this is rarely the case, more often than not the child is born of low birth weight, premature or with other health conditions. Those children will probably suffer abuse, perform poorly in school and use the welfare system to help support themselves; it can become a vicious and publicly expensive cycle that is very difficult to break.…
Women are responsible for when or where they choose to have sex, so they should also be held responsible for the consequences. “U.S. high school students surveyed in 2015 and 41 percent had sexual intercourse” (Adolescent and School Health). Once the teenagers get pregnant, they think of ways to get rid of the baby through abortion because it will interrupt with their education or that they are way too young for it. Due to their irresponsibility, they get the right to kill a baby and that is not considered a crime. They should be responsible for their action whether it works out with their plan or not does not matter.…
However, teenagers make their own decisions. Regardless of how many times parents can tell their child not to have sex, they end up doing it. It’s better to prevent a pregnancy before hand rather than regretting it and getting an abortion. Not to mention, in most states in the U.S abortion is illegal and this can consequently lead to a self made abortion, which has many risks for the fetus as well as the mother. Teenagers should be educated more about safe sex and…
When becoming pregnant, teenagers are forced to mature and become adults at a mere rate of nine months. They are faced with difficult decision making about their education and their future. Unlike the normal teenager, they have someone else to consider when making their choices from now until the end of their life. Continuing the pregnancy is an obvious question. This decision can be altered by many factors, including support of her family, the father’s family, and the community. Society’s sharp division on the matter of abortion has a large influence on the mother’s decision. She will also have to plan to further her education and a secure career to support herself and the child. Although the mother may be planning to continue with high school and college, this may be extremely difficult to consider when a child is brought into the picture.…
When teens discover they are pregnant, more than 50% of teens will make their first decision about their pregnancy, by telling someone right when they find out themselves. A teen telling another person is a big step for them in the right direction of growing up in this situation. Many teens first tell their parents, the father of the child or a very close friend or family member. Once the big news of a teenager’s pregnancy is known by someone other than themselves, teens then discuss and make the decision of either keeping their baby, giving it up for adoption or getting an abortion. Surprisingly 35% of teens, who become pregnant get an abortion, only 1% of pregnant teens decide to put their baby up for adoption and finally about one third of pregnant teens decide to keep and raise the baby (Wender). Once pregnant teens make their first parenting decision, they then move on to many…
An 18 year old girl gets pregnant and can’t decide whether to keep the baby or have an abortion. Her parents are very religious and do not believe in sex before marriage therefore would not take to kindly to their daughter being pregnant.…
There are many obvious reasons why teenage pregnancy is a problem in and of itself. First being, the couple most likely is not financially stable and would not be able to support the child without help from their parents. Children that are born of teenagers are prone of being born premature, which can cause the undersized child to experience loss of vision and internal bleeding of the brain, which could ultimately lead to the child’s death. Another issue the mother could face is not qualifying for WIC (Women, Infants, and Children). If one does not qualify, then they will not receive benefits and checks from the government that grant them certain things their child needs. This means that the parents or guardian of the teenager would have to supply even more for the baby. Another thing the teenagers that engaged in sexual immorality could face is the risk of catching an STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease). This can cause many problems for the mother and unborn child during the pregnancy. One major problem is that if the mother has one of these diseases, such as Syphilis or HIV, she could easily pass it along to her unborn child during her pregnancy. If the child were to catch either of these diseases, it could very easily cause harmful effects and potentially leads to the child’s death before or after his…

Abortion is a subject that has a prominent and divisive public controversy over the moral, ethical and legal issues. Before, the idea of having an abortion being done was the issue now; the controversy is having parents involved with the decision making on abortion with their teenagers! The law strictly requires parents to be involved in their child’s decision and if the child wants to go under an abortion procedures parents must be present.…
Children at 14 years old are not mature enough to understand a serious relationship, let alone a marriage and what it involves to be in a marriage. A marriage is not just a piece of paper, nor should it be treated as such. A true marriage should involve the maturity and understanding of what the vows mean. To love one and other, care for one and other and help one and other when they need it. I think that in this day in age, people don’t take the vows of marriage seriously. Too many people are getting divorced or getting married for the wrong reasons. If a girl gets pregnant, no matter the age, they should not have to get married or think that they have to get married just because they are pregnant.…
Teenage pregnancy has not always been such a big issue as it is today. The big problem before was unmarried mothers, age was not important. One reason why, is because many males and females had completed their education by age 15 or 16 (Farber, 2003). If a girl did become pregnant, the families pushed for marriage. As long as the family could be supported, the public saw no problems. In the past 30 years views on teenage sexual activity, pregnancy, and parenting have dramatically changed. Our society is now very open-minded and accepting about teen pregnancy.…

There are many reasons explaining to their choice of this way. Several social experts have brought out three direct reasons. Firstly, their finance does not allow them to organize a wedding ceremony, buy a house or establish a family (cover their daily needs)... Secondly, the couples want to live in their own ways, it seems to express their love each other. Thirdly, they meet their xxx demand. In addition, there is not family tie of their relationship in trial marriage ; therefore, the couples could break up easily whenever they think that it is not suitable any more. And the last, they just want to get some experiences to their family life in future.…
