Teenage Pregnancy
Let's talk about the topics that are rarely discussed.
Teenage pregnancy, blessing indeed but it was not inappropriate in my opinion. I'm not here to make a point or offer an unqualified opinion on this matter. I respect everyone's right to their own opinions and beliefs. All I wanted was to get rid of this thought that I had every night before going to bed.
Teenage pregnancy can occur in three ways: some may become too aggressive on trying out things, others may be sexually abused, and some women may become pregnant by accident. I'm not saying that teenage pregnancy is a bad idea, my point is that we shouldn't do things out of lust and curiosity since there will always be consequences. If someone really wanted to do it, then they free to do so, but make I think they need to make sure to use proper safety precautions (contraceptives). I simply believe that the challenge in this situation is not only for the couple who will become a new parents and their child but also for the guardians and parents of those teenagers.
Parents always want the best for their children, they risk everything for our future and make sacrifices. All of that will be ignored just because of this matter, instead of them being able to retired in their old age and us reaping the benefits of their sacrifices for us. As their child became parents at a young age, they couldn't stop caring for their children and its offspring. They are suffering as a result of their child's mistake.
Aside from that, there are this abortion. The child in the pregnant woman's womb were innoncent but they are most often become the victim of abortion simply because they aren't ready to be a parent or because it was created by an accident. I don't think there are such thing as accident in terms of doing sexual intercourse well the only exemption to the rule if they were sexually abuse.
Another factor is adoption, while it is commendable that they raised the child for 9 months in their biological mothers womb. If the child were taken into adoption it is like a lifetime of searching for the them who will feel as if he does not exist in the world due to a lack of identity. They may prosper and be part of a family that loves them unconditionally, but the lack of their own identity will not fill the void in their hearts. It's also possible that they won't thrive in a loving home.
When it comes to starting a family, there are a lot of things to think about, so please choose to do what your parents advise you to do. My brother always tells me, "Follow first before you disobey" (makinig ka muna bago ka sumuway). I don't want to live with regrets for the rest of my life, I still want to do more as a young adult, and I hope that other young people share my sentiments. I don't want my parents to be disappointed by my choice, so I'll try to save first before considering the things that most adults consider, such as starting a family and having a child.
I mean no offense for those people who have a different opinion I just freely wanted to share this opinion of mine.
