Is Teen Pregnancy Cool Something These Days?

I just thought I'd speak out about this because I'm 18 years old my friends range from 16 to 19 but a lot of my friends and people I know are 16 /17! And to be honest I'm shocked that girls now a days in this day and age were contraception is so easy to get there's even clinics were you go on the pill for free where I live but yet everyone is pregnant!

My friend became pregnant last year just before her 16th birthday she had contraception but chose not to use it! And since she got pregnant 11 more girls I know who are all under 18 have become pregnant! I just don't understand why they chose not to use contraception when it's highly available to them! And I'm even more shocked and plain well scared of what they all have to say about it I've seen comments to each other on MySpace saying well done with your news! and awh you're so lucky I can't wait to have a baby from a 16 yr old?!!

I'm the kind of person that won't glamorize pregnancy to you so when my other friend announced she was pregnant I said you're an idiot do you know how much your life is going to change? Her reply was it won't change all my friends will mind the baby when I want to go out and my boyfriend will too and I'll still be able to go out every night of the week! I had to laugh because as much as people say oh I'll mind the baby for you anytime they change their mind really quick after the baby is born!

My best friend who had her baby a few months ago thought all these things too and planned to go back to school but now the baby's here she realized it's not glamorous at all and she can't live the same life she used to! She never sees her friends no more only me! She can't go to school again until the baby grows up! The boyfriend is never around! She hasn't been out in a year and a half and cries her eyes out every time I see her! people make remarks on her gained weight and people call her a slut even though she's not! These are the kind of things pregnant teens have to put up with!

I know this isn't partially well written but I'm just saying girls, use contraception! Seriously you have college and so many adventures to look forward to before having children and guys even if the girl says it's ok you don't have to use a condom still do never leave it up for someone else to decide ! and I would also like to add I'm not putting down teen mothers at all because I don't agree with people looking down on them at all I'm just saying if you're going to have sex under 18 please use contraception.

WaitingAtTheDoor I agree. Too many girls that are inmature are having kids. Further too many boys that are inmature are having kids as well. People who have no life experience, have no education to derive from, and no way to financially, psychologically and physically provide for a child. What happens to that child's perspective when daddy isn't around, and mommy is a basket case because she has no resources and can't support the child?

I see it everyday, and those kids end up making huge mistakes. - 7 days ago
