PREMARITAL PREGNANCY: HOW TO AVOID

[Lacey Cormier]

For the past years, the number of premarital pregnancy all over the globe had alarmingly been increasing. There are numerous factors that cause this sort of case, which can be even avoided with proper guidance and discipline – also awareness. Parents can save their children from this situation; there are a lot of ways to avoid this. A close family always shunts rebellion out of their kids’ lives, if the children are close to their parents and has an open relationship with them, which makes them open to any topic and problem there is, then there’s no place for rebellion and disobeying. For me, I think the best way to stop children doing these stuffs when they reached the stage of adolescence is their parents’ guidance and support. If they can talk about anything freely (e.g. alcohol, cigarettes, sex, marriage, drugs, elisa test kits, etc.), then there’s space for explaining these sort of stuffs to them and protect them from curiosity and stop them from trying.

It’s mainly awareness, protection and discipline that hold children from entering premarital sex and then pregnancy. If they are lured by cigarette commercials, drugs, elisa kit manufacturers, or whatever, then they won’t have any reason to try. Children, if rebelling from their parents, can indulge into different vices and some would end up being pregnant. It’s the parents’ obligation to guide and care for their children while they’re still young and keep it that way until and while they’re growing up.
