Do you think all or most teenage pregnancies should end in marriage?

Or should the baby be aborted, put up for adoption, or even kept but the parents not get married? Whats your opinion and please share any experiences?





Thanks for answering!Do you think all or most teenage pregnancies should end in marriage?
Hell No!!! People should not be forced to marry at any age if they are pregnant or not. The choice is up to the parents of the baby, predicated of course on the support they would get from their extended families. I'd say if the parents of the child can struggle but raise the child, then do so. If they feel that they cannot take care of it but don't want to abort, then put it up for adoption. If they want to rid themselves of the responsibility, then they should abort. Why force them to take care of something when this child could potentially end up being abused? Do you think all or most teenage pregnancies should end in marriage?
i really don't think that people should marry just because of pregnancy. the child would be brought up in a loveless marriage if in fact you weren't together or it was just a 1 night stand. If you are together and got pregnant then there is nothing to say that you should get married. i have a baby with my partner and we are not married, we love each other very much and are happy and that is enough for our little one. marriage doesn't make a happy stable home, you as a couple do that any way. As for teenage pregnancies,i think there would be less if they were properly educated about it. a lot of girls(in the uk) were getting pregnant on purpose so they could get a council flat and benefits which in myopinionn, don't deserve to have children as they are doing it all for the wrong reasons and can't look after themselves let alone a child. i think its all about theindividuall mostly though.
my friend was pregnant and she always said that she loved this guy with all her heart. but it turns out that after she had a miscarriage he told her off and said that he never liked her in the first place. so i'm guessing they never would have gotten married because the dude was a complete ******.





the baby should NEVER be aborted, because there are ALWAYS people out there who are unable to have children and would love to have one of their own. even in the case of rape (just because the rapist was a monster, doesn't mean the baby is...)





i don't believe that teenagers are required to marry the person with whom they have had a child... but then again.. i also believe that people in general should get married before having kids.





you see. once jamie lynn spears gets married to her boyfriends, that marriage will be up in flames in no time, i guarantee you.


many teenagers are just too young. they have their whole lives ahead of them and if they get married and have kids now, it will only be harder to pick themselves back up and make a success of their futures.
I think teenagers should not fall pregnant, they are not ready to face the responsibilities of a baby and marriage, and in the end they end up alone with kids to support, and abortion is murder - nor even worth considering, adoption is something you life to regret later in your life, for you always wonder where and what happened to that child
it depends on alot of different things, some teenagers are more mature than others, some teenagers will get help from parents or families and some will not, i do not believe in abortion, there are alot of people that can't have babies, I definitely do not think that teenagers should be made to get married but should be made to finish school and continue with education even if they have a baby-young people are doing it everyday.
Don't get married if you don't love each other. People get married because of kids and everyone is sad. If you get pregnant you should take responsibility for your actions. That means if you're old enough to have sex then find a home for your child. My friend is a teen mother. She did not take the easy way out and kill a baby. She got a job and is raising her son herself. She did the right thing.
I don't think abortion is the right answer, but adoption may be if she really does not want the baby. I don't think teens should get married for the baby's sake. I was 17 when I had my daughter (now 16) her dad and i got married and had a bad marriage. We were divorced right after college. Had to do over I would have stayed single.
my friend got pregnant when she was 16 and she and the baby and her boyfriend are still living happily...i don't think they should have to get married. however i probably wouldn't have a baby until i'm at least engaged (i would get engaged if it was an accident).


oh and i don't believe anybody should have an abortion unless there is a medical problem with the baby or mother. but that's just me
No, definitely not.





Marrying for the wrong reasons (Because you ';have'; to) leads to unhappiness.





Aborted? Leads to unhappiness.





Adoption: Not so bad for the baby but hard on the birth mother





Kept, parents not married the BEST option.
Don't get married unless it is their choice, marriage isn't suitable for all people.And if they choose to abort or adopt that'ss fine.


Who am I to say what everyone should do in a situation?
i think it all depends on the situation, i'm 22 now and had my first child at 14 and didn't get married and happy i didn't, but really every situation is different
Adoption or marriage. Marriage only if the pregnant one is 17 or older. Adoption if the mother is any younger.
Teen pregnancies should end in abortion or adoption. If they are stupid enough to get pregnant in the first place, they shouldn't keep the baby.
No it shouldn't matter the age NEVER EVER get married because of a pregnancy. It makes it terrible for the child and the parents as well.
It depends on what they want.
only if it isnt rape...
I think they should be forced to be married.





And if they want to abort the baby, they would have to pay a fine and spend some time in jail and enroll in the military.
