The phenomenon of teenage pregnancy, I think, is best described with the above caption. If due to lack of knowledge, a woman who is under age gets pregnant within or outside wedlock, it is termed as a case of teenage pregnancy. As the caption makes it clear, it is very risky for both the mother and child.

Physically and mentally a teenager is not mature enough to become a mother. The body and mind are not strong enough, and the stress and strains of pregnancy take their toll. Teenage mothers are unable to take care of themselves and hence are prone to complications and problems. Emotionally too, the stress is much more than what they can reasonably bear. Frequent breakdowns lead to nervousness and smoking which further harms them and the unborn child. To make the matters worse, all these naturally lead to difficult childbirth labor.

Online teenage pregnancy quiz is supposed to test a person’s knowledge about this aspect of a woman’s life. A well informed person is in a better position to deal with the situation. Proper guidance and counseling is very important as well as knowledge about contraceptives and sexual matters. It is better if parents can share strong relationships with their teenage children and are able to openly communicate with their children on all aspects of their life. The growing age of teenagers in the absence of parental guidance unknowingly land them up in messy relationships and situations. Even this can be tackled, provided elders are able to build strong emotional bonds with them.
