Why is it so hard for teens who become sexually active?

Question

to learn to use a home pregnancy test?

If you're going to have s*x, you're likely to get pregnant. That's what it's all about. So learn to use a HPT and stop runnng to a bunch of strangers on Yahoo every time to ask if you "might" be pregnant. It doens't matter what the odds are, you either are or you aren't. Take the test.

Answer 1

Home pregnancy tests are the ultimate reality. Teenagers, along with adults, yes I see adults asking this, do NOT want to know. Asking on yahoo makes it seem there but not fully. The pregnancy test just confirms it.

Answer 2

OK I will.

Answer 3

you shouldn't always judge people. i totally agree with the other person that answered as well,that many don't get taught enough about sexual intercourse,which leads to pregnancy or because many other teens are scared to go to the doctors as they'll feel embarrassed.

Answer 4

I think it is partially because too many teens are not taught enough s*x education at home long before they become active. They get the wrong information from the wrong sources.

Answer 5

I blame the school system. Kids can't rely on themselves, they need to be taught things, and schools don't really seem to be doing that these days. In some counties, schools can have all the neccesary elements to teach a cohesive s*x ed class, but in another county (sometimes even in the same state) it'll be totally disogrganized.

We need homogenization of the education system, not someone ranting about scared teenagers looking for help.

Answer 6

They just need someone to listen to, hear the opinions of others, becase most likely their being mostly negative and need possitive imput. People on here can tell them to calm down, take a breath, and think things through. Besides, it takes a while after you get pregnant for it to show up on the test, so during the days until they can take one, they need reassurance!

Answer 7

i notice that most of the questions come from american teens . maybe america should invest a little more in s*x education because i never herd such stupitiy from any of the teens i kno ' i might be pregnant '

most teens i kno are sexually active - dont judge - now put of all the girls i know ( freinds and not who are active ) only 2 got pregnant out of the couple of hundred i know (one im sure did it on purpose )

the rest of use magically manage to have academic careers ( go to collage etc) and not catch STD's or get pregnant because we use contraception correctly !!!!

s*x is a great thing and is really good for you if your carful -  personally i find it very relaxing after a stressful day and its always a brilliant talking point , me n my freinds are always discussing new positions and reading books on how to enhance your s*x life
