Introduction

The paper, Teenage Pregnancy, was written by Ramiro Molina and Electra Araya Gonzales. The paper talked about

Teenage Pregnancy and how it is abundant in the world. The writers wanted to emphasize that Teen pregnancy is a

social problem not resolved in developing and some developed countries, which is their thesis statement that guides

readers through the study. The study also talked about the sexual behavior patterns in different developed countries

that contributes much to teenage pregnancy. It also explained how ignorance affects sexual behavior of a person.

Summary
It is clear from the start of the article that this is no simple issue. The abundance of teenage pregnancy around the world

especially in the developing countries is very high. It is a social problem because it does not only affect the developing

countries but also some of the developed countries. It seems like they feel like they're not IN with the trend if they don't

get pregnant that’s why most girls in developing countries and some developed got pregnant during their teenage years.

Sexual behavior patterns also contributed to this problem. Ignorance is also a factor on teenage pregnancy. Teenagers in

developing countries must be educated about the problems they will have to face if they got pregnant at a young age.

Birth control should be emphasized to avoid getting pregnant if they cannot control themselves. How can they support

their child? They better finish their education than getting pregnant first.

Review/Critique
The study involves a sample of 652 pregnant adolescents from low income families and treated by a multi-professional

health care team at the Centre of Reproductive Medicine and Integral Development of the Adolescent that was studied

prospectively. Prenatal control included attention to adolescents, their partners, their families and the newborn child. All

the deliveries and newborn babies were treated at the Obstetric and Perinatal Residence of the Department of

Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Clinical University Hospital. The same technical standards were applied in each case.

There were no home deliveries in this cohort under study. These data are gathered to see how related pathologies

affects pregnancy by period until the baby is born. Most information is provided by UNFPA to analyze data according to

regions. The 10 countries with the higher fecundity rates between 15 and 19 years of age have been recorded, as have

those with the lower rates. A summary is given of the average use of contraceptives in each 5- country subgroup. In

regions with less than 20 countries, each country in the region is tabulated. Theories or Concepts presented were all

related to the topic which supports its claims and which fastens its purpose. The topic was well explained through
different theories, interviews and surveys presented. The paper was long enough that not a single topic is left

unexplained. Ideas were not bias; it was taken in different perception with evidence presented. Coherence of ideas were

presented, from sexual behavior to social factors.

Conclusion
Overall this article is very straightforward to its readers; however, in order to have more people be engaged and read

the whole article it needs a more concise introduction. Once the reader gets to the really good claims and findings that

are relevant to the things happening around, a good portion of the article has already past. Overall, it is good, well-

written with an important message for teens. The piece, when taken as a whole, is relevant and very convincing.
