Every year around 750,000 teenagers, between the ages of 15 and 18, will get pregnant. Why is that such a great dilemma? Back in the day, it seemed socially acceptable to be married at the age of 14. Usually that meant they started having kids when they were between the ages 15-18. They made good parents even though they were young. Nowadays though, some teenagers seem to be much more free which makes is difficult for people to see that teens can become good parents. They might think that the teen is irresponsible and careless. Despite that most people say that teenagers cannot make good parents because they are irresponsible, plenty of other people believe that they can by being responsible and prepared.
             Why would people think that teenagers can't be good parents and raise a child? There are plenty of reasons and many people think that they cannot. First off, they are just young. Most of the time, they haven't finished school and end up having the baby before they graduate and now have to drop out of school. Responsibility plays a massive part in being young also. They think to put themselves first rather than others and that factor is bad for having a child that needs to be thought of before anything else. Second, they say that money plays a big part in having a child. You have to pay for everything: clothes, baby food, car seats, bottles, etc. If you cannot afford anything how do you expect to take care of a baby?
             On the other hand, there are always certain ways that teenagers can be responsible parents even though the age is low. Something that shows a heap of responsibility would be just making the decision to keep, take care of, and protect the baby. They are showing that they can put the baby first by first of all, deciding to keep it and second, thinking of having the baby before what they already have planned for their future because now the baby will be their future.
