Abstract
Every year, hundreds of thousands of American teenage girls become pregnant. According to the Guttmacher Institute (2006), a private research company in the field of teenage pregnancy studies, 821,810 teen girls, ages 15-19, became pregnant in the year 2000, and many more may occur, only not reported. Teenage pregnancy rates may be at the lowest point in the last ten years, but the problem still exists. Since a large number of girls are becoming pregnant every year, the programs that are supposed to be instilling lessons on how to prevent teen pregnancy, are in fact, actually not strong enough to prevent them. It takes two for the conception of a child, which means not only are the sexual education programs failing the 800,000 females a year, but also at least 800,000 males. Even though there are still large numbers of girls becoming pregnant, sexual education is very important in decreasing the number of teenage pregnancies.
