These day there are many young teenage pegnancies and this is not a soft subject anymore. It used to seem real bad and brand new to people a few years ago, but not anymore. It is happening to more and more teenage kids now. I feel that this a big problem because parents are not taking resposibility for their childrens actions, because I dont think that it is compleatly the teens fault. I see many parents just let them run the streets and do whatever they what because they can not keep them undercontrol or mabey even feel that what they are doing is more important.I have seen many times when parents refuse to believe that their kids are having sex. I used to have a friend that asked her mom to put her on birthcontrol and her mom told her no because she shouldn't be having sex in the first place.But the fact off the matter is that she was and not soon after that she was pregnat.
Dont get me wrong the young kids who are having sex know what their doing. Some of them even want to babies. Their are also young boys who are just not ready to step up to the plate and become a father but are still willing to have sex. Another thing is that these kids are talking about abortions and other things I feel that if you are think you are old enough to have sex then you need to step up and take care of responsibility and by that I dont mean dropping the baby off on your parents because it just does not work that way. Being said I think that people should wait till there full grown adults and are able to take care of a baby before they have children. I also feel that parents should listen more to their kids and sit down and talk with them about sex such as it could turn into pregnancy or mabey even an STD. So please talk to your kids and kids please to your parents, they are right sometimes...lol

I totally agree with you on the pregnancy. Especially with the parents too. Parents do not want there kids having sex but there is no way they can stop them, so why not help them! Some parents do not get it, and some kids do not get it.
ReplyDeletei agree with the whole parents thing. it bugs me so much when the parents think there kids are so perfect and then they are shocked when they find out there pregnant. I hate that they try to be there kids friend instead of parent. parenting should be before friend. You did very well :) and i totally loved reading this
ReplyDeleteI agree with your writing about pregnancy. I know im not ready for a child thats why i got put on birthcontrol just to be safe. I think if more mothers talked to there children about birthcontrol and more fathers talked to there sons about condoms, the world would have less abortions and less stds to deal with.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the parents needeing to step up and talk to their children and take precautions. However, I also feel that some kids have sex just to be cool and say they have had sex, but on the otherhand some people have been in relationships for a long time and even if they do take precautions, accidents happen. Some people are not ready for kids and can not afford them and in that case abortion is the mature thing to do. Otherwise they are putting a child's life at risk and that child may end up in fostercare or in an adoptian agency. I think you made some really good points and this is a great topic!
ReplyDeletei agree with you on this because i been getting feed back from my high school and we had so many young students that are getting pregnant. i think it's crazy that the parents don't care what they have done with their lives. They need to discipline them or do some counceling or something. But anyways great job summarizing your opinions and what you feel.
ReplyDeleteSam, What a thoughtful blog!
ReplyDeleteOn one hand, I'm tempted to say that ultimately the young woman is responsible for her own actions, but, on the other hand, I get so angry at parents who stick their heads in the sand. Wow. What a complicated issue. One thing's for sure...our teens need our help, huh?
