What the people say about: Teenage prenancy

Mark Smith- 'I am of the opinion that teenage pregnancy is still an issue in our society today. There are money factors that contribute to this, I think the main factor comes from the single parent mothers who cannot effectively provide for their children. Lack of job opportunities. Yes! they should be allowed in school while pregnant, it's not the end of the world; they will need an education to get a job to provide for the baby.

 


Neil Seulall- 'The issue of teenage pregnancy is on the rise in our community. I'm usually on the forefront everyday and see so many young girls walking pregnant. Most of them would have dropped out of school due to the unexpected pregnancy also poverty. Most of these girls come from mother headed homes with many siblings, on the other hand some teenagers fall pray to peer pressure. No they shouldn't be allowed in school while pregnant but after the pregnancy they can go back to school.'    

Ryan Chase- 'In this life there is the strong force of good and evil with this in mind we need to ensure that our children are brought up in the fear of the lord. If they don't have God in their lives satan has away of pulling them in and he has nothing good to offer. In our society today it's teenagers who are not walking in the fear of the Lord that are being trapped in the ring of becoming pregnant. Talk to your children about sex and early pregnancy. Yes they should be allowed in school, why shouldn't they?'


Ravi Persaud- ' Yes teenage pregnancy is still a major issue in Guyana and other parts of the world. Poverty is still a major factor that leads to teenage pregnancy likewise peer pressure. Yes i think they should be allowed in school while pregnant since they will need the education to provide for their unborn child'


Lateisha and Stacey- 'Teenage pregnancy is a big problem in our country. Financial problems, peer pressure and their environment can lead them to become sexually active that cause them to become pregnant. No they shouldn't be allowed in school while pregnant, this will encourage other girls to get pregnant and think it's no big deal'
