Teen Challenges (Jonathan)

The biggest challenge teenagers face nowadays is that they face big problems. For example, girls face unplanned pregnancy; some have the capability to keep the child. And feed him/her and all that, while other teenage girls, rather “Abort”. They cant have the capacity to understand that age has it’s time for everything, yes any teenage girl can have a baby at early age, but what they don’t realize that they are too young to be pregnant. Even at the age of 18, they still are young. It is not healthy for teenage girls to be pregnant at those ages. As a teen mother, they should have more responsibilities than any other person.

Male teens face the risk of gangs. Teens these days get jumped in and don’t realize that they aren’t only hurting themselves, but their family and friends also.. Most teenagers think that it is fun to join gangs. They think it’s a game, but what they don’t understand is that this is not a video game. In life, if you die, you die; there are no second chances. If only there was a way to make teenage guys understand that gangs are a waste of time. They die, and not only hurt their friends but their family. And what is sadder than a torn apart family? We need to help male and female teens that the things they are doing nowadays, are only affecting the people around them more than they are hurting themselves.  Please, we shall do the best to help these kids understand that it is wrong what they are doing! The have the knowledge to understand that “Homies” are not your “Family” as they say. There has to be a way to stop all this non-sense.
