How does peer pressure causes teenage pregnancy?

Answer 1

Have you ever heard the old saying, "everyone is doing it?" well that's what some teens think is right. Lots of teen are having premarital sex which sometimes result in pregnancy. then their friends do it so they feel like a part of it too.

Answer 2

Peer pressure is something that just happens, but can be broken by the strong willed. Kids all look up to the ones who brag about what they have done. They want to do the same and are encouraged by the braggers to do it ! It is easy to follow this behaviour and do what they did, but much harder to say no or ignore them. Boy's will always want sex if it's handed out to them. If you are a girl and you are being pestered by a boy wanting sex from you and you don't really want to then please just say no ! Take no notice of what he may say to try and get you to agree. Take no notice of your mates who have already had sex and want you to do it too. You have a mind and a mouth so use it. It is selfishness that causes it not friendship.
