    Why are so many teenagers getting pregnant?
    I myself got pregnant at the age of 15 and had my son when I was 16 so I understand that things happen. But as it stands there are a lot of teen moms out there. Take for instance the movie that was just on life time a week ago "The pregnancy pack". This movie is based on a true event in Glouster, Mass. I just can't understand it.

    It's because they are being irresponsible with sex, or don't take it seriously. They don't think it could happen to them. But as it stands, america actually has one of the lowest percentages of teen pregnancy in the world. I'll have to find the article and get back to you on this, but I think that's right. It's because our sex education programs actually help people be informed.
