  • Teenage pregnancy: a girl between the ages of 13 to 19 who has become pregnant before reaching a stage of adulthood

STATISTICS

  • Seven in ten teens agree it would be much easier for them to postpone sexual activity if they had more open conversations about it with their parents
  • Six in ten teens say that when it comes to talking about sex, parents send one message to their sons and a different message to their daughters

... MORE STATS
