A bit more on Teen pregnancy

Here's an update on the research...

Fifteen and Pregnant
Grease
The Cider House Rules
http://www.teenpregnancy.org/resources/reading/tips/tips.asp - has some interesting questions, for example:
  • How do I know if I'm in love? Will sex bring me closer to my girlfriend/boyfriend?
  • How will I know when I'm ready to have sex? Should I wait until marriage?
  • Will having sex make me popular? Will it make me more grown-up and open up more adult activities to me?
  • How do I tell my boyfriend that I don't want to have sex without losing him or hurting his feelings?
  • How do I manage pressure from my girlfriend to have sex?
  • How does contraception work? Are some methods better than others? Are they safe?
  • Can you get pregnant the first time?
  • Finding yourself in a sexually charged situation is not unusual; you need to think about how you'll handle it in advance. Have a plan. Will you say "no"? Will you use contraception? How will you negotiate all this?
