`I have chosen to do my research on teen pregnancy. Begining with the definition of teen pregnancy, a teen pregnancy is defined as a young girl from the age of 13-17. Most just feel that it is wronng because teen shouldnt be having sex, or having children. There are however many medical conserns that should be considered as opposed to the opions of others. There are changes the female body must go through. Many through society, especially those in polotics feel thatyou should be forced to have your baby.

The president now, George Bush Jr. disaproves abortions. The main issue with Americans today is that most of us dont feel that if u got pregnant you should be forced to have the baby. the issue is that congress wants to force you to have babies just beacuse your pregnant, not considering the many optons as to why you are pregnant. To say that you should be forced to have your baby
