I believe that teenager that decide to open their legs or place their body's parts in between others all have an important responsiblities to they're child. They should not drop out of school because no where in the world you can go to get an great career with an decent pay. I know that if I can go through life as an teen mother then any other person can do the same. I did not let my child make my life meaningless I made it just that much more important. I am currently a senior at sww high school and I am planning on going to University of Rochester to become MD or an surgent. my child is going to be my hope and the reason why I succeed. wouldn't you try to do what is best for you and your child? What about you?

Who say you can go to school with an child? No, it just another chellenge for you to over come.

Over 75% of teenagers will have sex before they graduate high school. Over 31% of women under the age of 20 have been pregnant at least once. Over 98% of teenage pregnancies are unplanned. Over 50% of pregnant teens drop out of high school. What conclusion does this lead me to? Teens have sex, they do not use protection, and that they unintentionally become pregnant, which leads to a high drop out rate.
How do we fix this? We must stop the Federal government from funding Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage programs. These programs do not provide students with the information they need to maintain their sexual health. The school districts that practice Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage programs often pass judgment on pregnant students, and force them to relocate to different schools.
To prevent unplanned teenage pregnancies, and to protect the rights of pregnant students, we must urge the Federal government to fund Comprehensive Sexuality Education.
