it's just a reflection of the tines we live in. sexual immortality at its peak. The urban girls are not left out just that they have access to contraceptives and abortion than their rural counterparts.

Let's tell ourselves the truth. Once they have started having premarital sex, its very hard to stop..... Peer group pressure also contribute to this.

When you get to Bayelsa state, you will get to see a clearer picture of "teenage pregnancy". Anything conceives in that place.

Some people in rural areas(especially ladies) do not even know the importance of virginity,they are so gullible and dont even know the circumstances that lead to pregnancy,some believe in "touch and get belle"

The truth is that we celebrate sexual recklessness in this generation.

When you talk about chastity some persons will like to trivialise it. They want us to see keeping your virginity as unnecessary.

We promote seductive and suggestive appearances, even here on nairaland. Seun and lalasticlala, keep pushing seductive postures and photographs to the homepage, hence glorifying such evil.

Celebrating baby mamas. How do we condemn an evil trend when nairaland and other social media keeps celebrating baby mamas. Those who need to be sober are being given unnecessary media space.

Imagine....... Baby mama in London.

That's news for nairaland.

The alarming rate of teenage pregnancy in the Rural areas

The incessant increase is rate of teenage pregnancy in the Rural area is so alarming and obnoxious, this societal problem is as dangerous and damaging as other social vices e.g Cultism, Drug, thuggery etc

This societal abnormality as begin to seems normal in the Rural areas, this problem is not peculiar to the Rural area, but the recent rise in the rate of teenage pregnancy in that part is unprecedented

My recent visit to my village,in the Yuletide mood expose me to another dimension of this vices, which got me pissed off.

Hardly can you see a girl in her early 20's and teens without having a baby or two out of wedlock, is so disheartening hearing stories of 14,15 years old kids so exposed sexually, the moral bankruptcy of our youths both male and females is so injurious to our societal standing and status, Urgent measures are needed to be taken to avert the pending danger of this abnormality ...

Pointing out the problems without proposing solutions is fruitless, So in lieu of the aforementioned problem, these are the my proposed solutions

1. Including sex education in our secondary school syllabus

2. Organising seminars to orientate the youth about the danger and control of sex, the message should be
Targeted to both sexes, not just at the girls.

3. Parent have a lot of task in this context, by teaching and counselling their wards about the danger of tenage pregnancy and other moral lessons

4. The community as a whole as their part to play by reporting any suspicious dealings with underage girls and boys and also placing caution on them

5. The adult male are the major perpetrators of this evil act, by devilishly taking advantage of this tenage girls..knowing fully the pending danger it can cause to the girls career ambition and future, forgetting the girl can be their sisters, daughters, etc. adult males are advised to find conscience if they gat none, to find end to this societal problem. And Lastly

5. Criminalising the act of teenage pregnancy: I think this will go a long way in curbing this crises, by punishing the offender with a threat of imprisonment ,I think this will enable other youth take caution of this act knowing fully the punishment awaiting offenders...I think females have the potential of becoming whatever they desires, so we shouldn't allow the selfish act of some people ,with their desire of few minutes pleasure to ruin the future of our female children by taking advantage of their gullibility.

I think we all have our roles to play in curbing this crises..

That is why the Muslim north marry off their girls early; it is better they bear their children under the respectability of marriage than produce them out of wedlock, as Bastards - yet some ppl are abusing us as backwards and paedophiles - making reference to extreme examples as the norm to justify their insults.

This is what you get from abandoning your moral compass and adopting wayward ways in the name of advancement - skimpily dressed young school girls fornicating left right and centre/ doing runs and lots of baby mamas.

From my own point of view, too many things can lead to unwanted pregnancy, poverty is the least attribute. The most common curse of teenage pregnancy in 21st century are exposure of social media, lonelliness and lack of sex education. Africans are learning when it comes to teenage pregnancy, In US and europe the number of teenage pregnancy is alarming. Its not all about urban or rural area.

Oh God bless this OP for me.
I could still remember travelling down to my village sometime in 2015 and I saw my friend's sister (not related by blood though); she was heavily pregnant. This is a girl my friend and I believe had great potentials, she was humble,inteligent and always shy.
I was shocked to see her in that condition when I payed them a visit, and to think ozofu might just be around 17 to 19 years was what really baffled me.

It is really sad that we are in a world where evil is white washed and called good, where we think assimiliating to our enviroment the way it is, can as well be normal and give reason's like we are in a jet age,smH.
