| Topic | Reduce Teen Pregnancies By Improving Sex Ed |
| Content | Oklahoma has nearly 11,000 teenage pregnancies each year. This statistic warrants a program for effective and strong sex education. Having a class, on an annual basis, regarding sexual education could help reduce the amount of teenage pregnancies by helping to promote safe sex. Teenagers may do what they please, but educating them about safe sex may reduce some of the cases of teenage pregnancy. Girls who are born to teenage mothers are 22% more likely to become teenage mothers themselves. Oklahoma can perhaps reduce that statistic with a strong program in sexual education. |
