This article went over the many sides, conflicts, and reasons for teen pregnancy. In the beginning there was an example of a teen who became pregnant several times, even after she tried a program to help teen mothers. It also answered the question, why are births to teens rising? The teen births are in a four year clime. Resulting in not enough contraceptives or the fathers of the children are older, and less likely to use protection. Marilyn B. Benoit explained that some teen mothers seek attention from others and that leads to a birth or fathers seek the manhood of having a child. Another question involved in this article was, Are school based clinics an appropriate vehicle for preventing teen pregnancy? This was followed by a 28 month long program that decreased pregnancy in the participating school by 30%. Recent studies revealed, however that traditional school based clinics did not give out contraceptives on site and some didn't even provide prescriptions for teens to get contraceptives. Throughout the years results show that the percents of teen pregnancies stayed the same. The article ended with some background information on sex education in the classroom and its overall effect is little to nothing. I would like to know more about current teen pregnancy rates throughout the country and the world.
