Teenage Pregnancy
Wednesday, March 26, 2014
Pregnancy is a special and critical stage of a woman. Some says that giving birth is not easy because she is fighting between life and death. To bear a child is a wonderful thing that a woman wants to have. But bear in mind that giving birth is not easy especially if you’re a teenager.
World Population Day is celebrated every year. This is a gathering of all the important persons who are studying about the population of a country. This year’s problem was all about teen pregnancy. It is not new to us but the increase of teenage pregnancy is a hindrance to success of our nation. Our country now is still weary in poverty because of over population.
According to the UP Population Institution, the highest rate of pregnancy is in Southeast Asia. In the Philippines, according to NSO, teen pregnancies in 2000 are around 324 and it augmented in 2010 which are around 755 individuals.
The factors that cause teenage pregnancy are: The influence of the internet or the addiction of the teenagers of chatting, facebook, twitter, instagram, and etc., the use of drugs, having boyfriends, making wrong decisions and etc.
We can avoid this by doing right in our lives. Avoid being haste, think first before we act. We don’t have to be in a hurry because we are still young to bear a child and we have lots of challenges to pass by. And stand in the saying of Dr. Jose Rizal that, “Youth is the hope of our nation.”
