There are national debates that continue to rage on over contraceptives, abortion, and sex education. Teen pregnancy is connected to all of these debate subjects. Incorrect contraceptive use, and sex education that is lacking are factors that contribute to teen pregnancy numbers. Furthermore, many teens having unwanted pregnancies seek abortions because of the extreme social and economic challenges that face teen mothers in America today.
We here at Online Ultrasound Schools have created the following infographic to show some of the major statistics on teen pregnancy in America, while highlighting of the more significant negative consequences. While teen pregnancy rates have declined over the years, it is still a social and economic problem that needs to be addressed. The first step to reducing teen pregnancy rates, abortions, and the amount of single teen mothers is to recognize the facts.
