This document discusses the impacts of teenage pregnancy on education. It notes that teen mothers are more likely to drop out of high school, which can reduce career opportunities and increase the risk of poverty. While some studies have found that many teen mothers had already dropped out prior to pregnancy, those still in school at the time of pregnancy were as likely to graduate as their peers. Early childbearing may result in poor health outcomes for both mother and child. Pregnancy during adolescence can negatively impact academic performance, as teen mothers have to balance motherhood with school and may drop out. The document aims to identify the causes and impacts of teenage pregnancy on academic performance and explore strategies to prevent it.

2. Objectives
Being a young mother in an industrialized country
can affect ones education. Teen mothers are more likely to
drop out of high school. Recent studies, though, have
found that many of these mothers had already dropped
out of school prior to becoming pregnant, but those in
school at the time of their pregnancy were as likely to
graduate as their peers.
One study found that women who gave birth during
teens completed secondary level schooling 10-12%as often
and pursued post-secondary education 14-29% as often
as women who waited until age 30. The correlation
between earlier childbearing and failure to complete high
school reduces career opportunities for many young
women. That affect also their lives that they may become
a member of poverty here in our country.
A teenage pregnancy is when a woman under 20 gets
pregnant. It usually refers to teens between the ages of 15
to 19. But it can include girls as young as ten. Its also
called teen pregnancy or adolescent pregnancy. Early
childbearing may result in poor health outcomes and may
be a threat to the countrys economic growth.
Pregnancy throughout adolescence has an impact on
academic performance. Because of her early pregnancy,
she loses a lot. Similarly, her future was envisioned for the
sake of education. Because she did not graduate because
she became pregnant early, it will be difficult for her to
find work and money. This will have an impact on her life.

affect their lives. Most of these teenagers will no longer be focus of
their parents attention and guide. As a result, they become pregnant
early. The fact that parents pay less attention to their children,
coupled with the fact that teenagers today are growing up in a culture
way in which peers.
Even though the educational system promotes educational as a
pillar of responsible sexual behavior and specific information about
the consequence of sexual intercourse. It has been observed that
teenage pregnancy has remained persistent in our local communities
due to various contributing factors and has had negative impacts on
the life of the teenagers involved. Teenage mothers are unlikely to
complete high school education. Some of them are lost their self
confidence because they already have a baby in early age. Some of
them thinks already what others want to say about them.

pregnancies are associated with social issues including lower
educational levels and poverty. Not only teenage girls are involved
here. But also the person of people behind these sexual activities.

increasing in rate. Some of them just do a early pregnant just
because they have a problem with their surroundings especially
with their family. They think having a baby in early age is the
answer of their facing problem. Also because of poor education
about sex many teenage girls not engaged in sexual activities that
goes out of control and we must prevent it.
