TITLE: Teen pregnancy rates in the United States

SUMMARY: Teen pregnancy is one of the most import issue here in the United States.Their is serious health risk involved. Mothers who become pregnant at their teen years had suffer from emotional problems, health problems & or social problems.
Many teenage mothers well depended on Welfare. Many teen mothers had dropped out of school to have a job & 1 out of 3 teen mothers still obtained their occupation as a high school student to earn their high school diploma.

REFLECTION:Theirs no a lot of teen mothers who still go to school after having a baby. It is important for teens to continue their high school because that's the only way they can earn a good job for their future even though its no so easy. I agree that many teens had gotten involved in emotional problems & health problems such as social problems because many teens start to have a not so good future which adds to suicide.

EVIDENCE:

• Teenage births are associated with lower annual income for the mother. Eighty percent of teen mothers must rely on welfare at some point.
• Teenage mothers are more likely to drop out of school. Only about one-third of teen mothers obtain a high school diploma.

QUESTION: How can teens still go to high school after they need money for their own kid?
