I think that the information that I found was very interesting. It was helpful to learn that the government is making young girls get contraceptive injections to prevent pregnancy. I think that if they do that, then young girls will get in the habit of having unprotected sex and think it is okay, and when they are a little older, they will end up pregnant anyway. So I don't necessarily think that the Government is helping.
Research
~Girls as young as 13 must be given contraceptive injections promoted by the government to avoid pregnancies
~It can make girls infirtile for up to three months
~ this controversial move will promote promiscuity and injections and implants would not protect against the spread of STDs
~drugs aren't exactly safe for girls who are still growing
~People are afraid that if they give young girls contraceptives, it will give girls the impression that is okay to have sex
~It can make girls infirtile for up to three months

Your blog was really good. You chose a good topic, and interesting one, one that has a lot of information and is happening a lot, unfortunately. In your essay, you chose the right words to say why you wanted to do teenage pregnancy. For getting research, and information on your topic, it should be very easy. You'll be able to find lots of information in just magazines, as well as online articles! I don't really know anybody who is pregnant at our age, so getting information from friends and anybody that you know, might be a little difficult. Just don't get any ideas from those celebrities from nickelodean! Seriously, I agree with that too, about how teenages could get the idea that it's cool to get pregnant if someone on there does.
Good Job. :)
Good Job. :)

Ashley! We have the same topic! It will be cool to see what we both come up with having the same topic. I agree that it will be some what challenging. I could not find a whole lot of information but I want to learn more about it. How do you get pictures on there?? Well it looks good. I think the pictures add more to it. I want to interview on a real pregnant teen or someone who has been pregnant at a young age. If I find any good websites I will let you know. I haven't had that great of luck yet..

There will be a lot of people to research. Because there are a lot of teens getting pregnant and not knowing what to do with it. There may a lot of web sites that will give a lot of information on how young people are having kids.

5 Paragraph Essay
I chose the topic teenage pregnancy for my I-Search paper. I find it really interesting how celebs such as Jamie Lynn Spears can give teens the wrong idea that it's okay to get pregnant at a young age I don't have personal experience or anything, I just thought that it would be a good topic because pregnancy is starting to become a common trend in teens and young adults. It seems like a really interesting topic that I am excited to learn more about.
My topic on teenage pregnancy is a current topic. In recent months many magazine articles and news stories revolved around how the seventeen year old actress Jamie Lynn Spears got pregnant and gave birth to a little girl. It is giving teen girls the idea that if a Nickelodeon star can get pregnant, it's cool. There have been reports of girls making pacts to all get pregnant at the same time, and unfortunately it is becoming a more and more common topic. So I don't think that I will have any problems regarding the currency in this topic.
There is an immense availability of information related to my topic of teenage pregnancy. I only skimmed much of the information that I looked at in the past week, but in that short amount of time, I saw many interesting things related to teenage pregnancy. I do not think i will run into any problems finding information online, in books, or in magazine articles about teenage pregnancy.
I believe that this topic will be ongoing for research. There is more and more information being published each day, so it will be able to keep me interested for months. I am very interested in this topic and think that it is a good candidate topic for a good I-Search paper.
This topic is very challenging in some ways, but in other ways it is very easy. I think that it will be very easy for me to find information, but I think that putting all of the information that I find, and organizing it all will be a little challenging for me.
