Answer to Question 1

Teen pregnancy is common because sexually active teens do not use birth control consistently or correctly. Many adolescents believe that they are invulnerable and that only others become pregnant. For some adolescent girls, becoming pregnant is appealing. The best way to reduce teen pregnancy is with comprehensive sex education programs. These programs teach the biological aspects of sex and emphasize responsible sexual behavior or abstinence from premarital sex. They also discuss the pressures to become involved sexually and ways to respond to this pressure.
