It seems like there has been a surge in teen
pregnancies these days. Teen pregnancies
make it very difficult for young mothers to
pursue their dreams and meet the demands of
an infant. Fortunately, most teen pregnancies
can be easily prevented by using birth control;
however, even birth control is not 100%
effective. The most effective way to prevent
teen pregnancies is abstinence, which is 100%
effective.
