TEEN PREGNANCY

I can suggest that in the future, teens and their partners get tested if they are planning to have intercourse, as well as use protection. My opinion is that people should not have intercourse until they are out of school.

REASONS WHY TEENS ARE FREQUENTLY GETTING PREGNANT

• Having intercourse at a very young age
• Taking drugs
• Not using protection during intercourse

HOW ARE THE DIMENSIONS OF HEALTH AFFECTED

• Physically: you and your partner would be pregnant, the female would experience many changes in her body
• Emotional: you may feel like you cannot go out in public anymore, thus making you feel lonesome and excluded
• Mental: you might feel stressed or anxious. People can also gossip about you, making you embarrassed or ashamed.
• Spiritual: you might feel like you cannot take back a bad life choice.

You can support a teenager who is pregnant by taking them to the doctor, or comforting them by telling them that they are not alone, because many people around the world are probably in the same situation.

Teen pregnancy should not be taken lightly, as it harms nearly over 750,000 teens per year just in America. If you know a pregnant teenager, you should take them to the doctor and support them.
