Ranting isn't going to help, besides most of them don't understand how they got pregnant in the first place! I think parents have a big role in this. If parents would talk to the kids about sex and why its so important to protect themselves not just against pregnancy it would be a step in the right direction.

Some teens get pregnant regardless of how much contraception is used (they're just way too fertile).
For the most part however a lot of them are just screaming for attention and for something to love and be loved back. Today's parents are just too busy with their own lives to worry about their teens. These parents honestly believe that once their child enters their teens they are old enough to know better and don't require their attention as much. If anything this is time to give them more attention, more love and more communication is necessary.
To place blame solely on the teenagers is not right, parents should be blamed also for not being there to stop them or offer solutions to avoid unwanted pregnancies.

i dont know why the surge in pregnancy.
It has also has to do with parenting nowdays. if the parents let them do what they feel, of course they will have sex, not use protection, smoke, fight and whatever else. it also has to do with the society that we all live in that is filled with sex. they look at sexy videos, listen to sex filled songs and so on.
Those are the bases of what i think may edge a teen into sex. Then it also depends on the maturity of the teen and whether or not he has a strong head on his shoulders. is he just a kid that doesn't want to progress in life? does she just wanna strip and not go to school?
there are so many factors as to why teens get pregnant but i really think it is a matter of firm parenting. parents need to be strict with their kids these days because they are growing up very fast. most parents that i see let their kids dictate rules of the house and tell the parents what they are going to do. then when the child tells them that they are pregnant or having a baby, the first words out of their mouth is "oh no, not my baby, how could this happen?"

I read this it's a recent discovery and 100% true: People used to think that teen's brains were fully developed, but now scientists have discovered that the part of the brain that controls logic and reasoning is still growing. Underdeveloped reasoning skills + raging hormones = pregnancy!

Actually, teen pregnancy rates have dropped over the past few years. As the Republicans lose their battle to promote "Abstinence Only" sex education, more and more teens are getting education and access to birth control.

"Why do teens get pregnant so freaking like fast totally!!!!!!!!?"
fast? what do you mean? Oh, like they haven't finished growing up and maturing yet and they are already rasining a human being when most can't take care of themself or giving themselves proper guidance? That's just how teens are sometimes. And yes, the teen pregnancy rate has dropped since the last decade or so.

It's like I always say, you can't control how you feel (or your inital reaction) but you can control how you act on those feelings.
Apparently younger teens haven't figured this out yet.

because the media makes it okay and their parents have no control and their kids have no discipline
