Sometimes when it comes to making an impact, you need some help to get your voice heard. You can say the right thing all day, but your message could go unnoticed if no one is saying it with you. Collect voices and make your message loud and clear.

Come up with a personal question, something better one than "Is teen pregnancy bad?" Try:- What are the reasons you don't want to be a parent yet?
- Do you have a dream that you can't accomplish as a teen parent?
