Why is teen pregnancy a problem?

Answer 1

Teen pregnancy is a problem because depending on the mother, it could get killed (abortion) and that would be very hard to go through killing you own child. Another problem is that teens go to school how can they go to school if they are trying to raise their kid. Some teens think ohh my parents will help me but no most likely the parents wont help and if they do consider yourself lucky. Also if you put your baby up for adoption that would be hard on the mother, the child, and the adoption parents. It would be hard on the mother because after going through labor having to pass your child off into the hands of somebody you barely know. It is hard for the child because they go from the loving care of being inside of their mother to strangers. Also when they are older they will wonder who their real mom is and why they put them uup for adoption. And they might start thinking that the mother doesnt love them when they were just trying to do the best for the kid. It would be hard for the adoption parents because when the child starts asking about who the real parents are they might get all emotional and other crap. And teens are not prepared in any way to have a child, they dont have the money, clothes, housing, and they still have to go to school. They probably will have to miss a lot of school to raise the baby the first couple months. and at school people will talk about you being the pregnant girl.
