Khadrym: "I don't believe that there's anything
wrong with [teen pregnancy] as long as the parents stay
in school and get their education. I feel that it is
wrong for girls to get blamed for being pregnant and
boys getting props for doing nothing [to help the moms]."
Michelle: "I think teen pregnancy is bad because
students aren't able to achieve their goals in life.
There's a lot of stress and limitations that come with
having a baby."
Robert: "Nobody is surprised when they hear news
that a certain person got pregnant. Youth are planning
to have kids while they're young; they don't think to
wait anymore."
Khadijah: "I feel that there are a lot of teens
out there who have babies because they feel like they
have nothing else planned for themselves. I believe
if [communities] have classes after school and really
speak out against teen pregnancy, then people will think
twice about getting pregnant at a young age."
Eric: "Teens should use protection if they're
sexually active. People talk about how other people
have babies, but when they get pregnant they want to
be quiet because they were hypocritical."
Aryan: "If they want a baby, they should be responsible
enough to handle one. They should first ask themselves
questions such as why do they want one, could they take
care of it, and how would a baby affect their lives."
Dale: "Teen pregnancy is wonderful. You have to
leave something behind because youngsters are getting
killed left and right in the streets."
Ashleigh: "Teen pregnancy is something against
youth, but I also feel that these sexually active teens
should practice safe sex. From my experience, teen pregnancy
was a harsh experience so I recommend everyone to wrap
it up."
