Sex Ed as a solution?
Sex education mission is to teach teenagers the risk and safeties of sexual intercourse. They build communication and interpersonal skills to help resist peer pressure. Sex education is a good solution because it informs the teenagers about what sex is and how to be protected. It helps prevent the spread of sexual transmitted diseases. It does not promote sexual risks. It offers age appropriate sexual health information in a safe environment. It provides medically accurate information about safety. Sex ed is a good soulution because it informs teens of the safe, healthful way of having sexual intercourse.

Reflection
For the outcome of my project, I want students to understand the risks and consequences of having a child at an early age. I want students to be well inform about the struggles that they may put on their children. I want students to know that having a child early will have long term financial and emotional problems.
Pregnancy Pact?
| Pregnancy Pact |
A pregnancy pact is when a group of teenage girls pledged to have babies together so they can raise the children together. A reason that girls have pregnancy pacts is because they may think it's the "in" thing or the lack of education about sex and condoms. Another reason may be is that they are lacking parental guidance. There parents probably don't teach their children about the difficulties of raising a child, especially if the mother is a single parent.

A Word From Big Sis..
Not too long ago i had a serious conversation with my big sister, Delia. Delia got pregnant while she was still in high school, so she knows many things about teen pregnancy. She told me that teenagers in this generation have no reason to be getting pregnant. That girls have more opportunities this time, brand new things to help make teenagers successful. There is school and college online, so many programs to help teenagers that there's no reason to have a child right now. When she was younger she didn't have many opportunities that girls have now. Teens have so many oppurtunities handed at their feet, yet many of them have unplanned children. They continue to decide to make things harder for themselves..but like my sister said, there is no reason to be getting pregnant now.
