Tyra Tackles Teen Pregnancy

Kerry's picture

On the heels of the Bristol Palin story, talk show host Tyra Banks addresses teen pregnancy today when she sits down with ten teen girls -- most of whom are pregnant. A web survey of 10,000 teens showed 64% of teen girls are having sex, one in five say they want to be teen moms and more than 50% of sexually active teens don't use protection. Some say they want "baby bumps" like their favorite celebs, while others feel a baby will restore a broken relationship.

something needs to be done

Seeing the video clip of the show, again proves there is serious need for comprehensive sex education AND parenting eduction. Maybe a ban on magazines showing pregnant celebs would be a good idea too.
