pregnancy in the Philippines is very
common issue as well as one of the major
problems. Women easily pregnant not in
the right time. Time were not yet ready,
lack of money, don’t have work as well as
lack of support.

5. Adolescent pregnancy has its own
causes. One of its cause is women is not
yet ready to have a child, and don’t have
enough money it may cause to abandoned
the baby. The abandoned baby don’t
know what was happening outside the
world. The life given to him did not allow to
take the chance. A chance to see the
world, a chance to smile, a chance to play,
a chance to study, chance to experience
everything and a chance to be love by the
person around.

6. On the other side if woman did not
abandoned the child and giving it a chance to live
normally but lack of money, what life did the
young mother can give to the baby? What can
the young father do? If he is not yet ready too. If
he cannot accept it. The child may
experience miserable life. Unhappy life,
incomplete family, and also grow with questions
in their mind. If mother still couldn’t accept her

presence. It may cry and cry for doing nothing
wrong. It’s not their fault even though they are the
result of the wrong love of their young parent’s.

want to take care of her child and misses
being teenager. She just wanted to
experience again the freedom of being
teenager or single. To do those exciting
and enjoying things with her friends without
thinking anything else. Free all the way. Go
whatever she wanted to go. Spend her
money to her second needs. And buy what
she wanted to buy.

education. A time aloted for her
education will give time to her baby.
Education is very important to an
individual. It may lead to their profession
but since she was already a mother she
couldn’t study in that time. Money for the
education will used for the basic needs of
the child.

problem. But in this case we have t be
practical. We must think first for the future
so that every things couldn’t be regret and
despair.
