Pregnancies can create an emotional crisis resulting in feelings of shame and fear to teenagers. Their emotion will be effected and they will feel unsecured about this matter.

People around will underestimate them and mocking them because get pregnant at this age.Some of them will be isolated and be hated with their neighbourhoods.

Pregnancies also can interrupts teenagers in their school,educations and other plans.As we can see,teenagers is still young.It is the best time for them to build their bright future through educations.However,if they got pregnant suddenly,their education will be neglected and they seem to have problems to manage their future ife.

Why It Happen?

In my opinion, there are many factors of why teenage pregnancies are happen in many country nowadays.I will discuss about it in this topic.
Adolescent Sexual Behaviour - This is one of the factor. At a one stage, when teenage are facing enormous peer pressure, they start dating and have sex from a very young age. Some of them also taking drugs. These will lead them into unintended sexual activity. There are some drugs that can affect and shown the strongest effect linking to teenage pregnancy are cannabis, alcohol, and amphetamines, including "ecstacy".
Failure of Contraceptives - The common reasons why teenage pregnancy happen. Teenagers are not aware about their lack of knowledge on how to use contraceptives such as birth control pills and condoms. Teenage may also having unprotected sex with a partner who did not use a condom, or claimed that was embarrassing to buy birth control or request information from a doctor.
Sex Abuse - Nowadays we can hear about it happen everywhere either in newspaper or televesion. Teenagers were forced to do sex, so some teenage mothers actually had unwanted sexual experiences preceding their pregnancy. For instance, teenage girls who are immigrated to another country to find work, they are forced to do an immoral work.
Socioeconomic Factor - It also one of the factor for this trouble. Poverty is linked with the increased rates of teenage pregnancies. Result shown that more teenage mother in economically poor countries if compared with economically rich countries. Here, i want to emphasize and make people realize that there are some of wrong perspective from community towards teenage mothers that they become pregnant to get benefits, welfare, and council housing. These are absolutely wrong.
So,lets discuss,what is your opinion? Hope all of you can give your opinion from your deepest heart.Thank you.
