Internet Sites

There are a lot of overprotective parents in this world. A lot of parents mind if there kids have a bebo or a myspace. I don’t see why because all kids aren’t stupid and all kids won’t do something that would get them in a bad situation. Some kids just go on there to talk to their friends. It’s not bad if your page is blocked to only your friends, that means that your friends can only be on your page and if you know your friends then it shouldn’t be a problem. On think that you should never do is share your password with anybody because you will never know if that person will turn their back on you and share your password with everybody. If you put your pictures on the internet you should always block them so that people that you want to see can only see them. I think that parents should ease up on kids and trust them more because kids can make their own decisions.

I thought that this was really big deal. I couldn’t believe some of the stuff that I read. It made me scared when I read about all of the sex offenders. I was shocked when I saw that the owners were putting people’s personal information out there. When I read about face book I was mad because how are they going to just change the rules when they feel like it, because if you agreed to follow some thing else than that is what you should follow. Not the things that they decide to change after you register. This taught me a good lesson though. Don’t make anything without your parents permission, and if you do don’t put your real information out there. Also I learned that you shouldn’t talk to anybody that you don’t know, because if there is a cute boy but you don’t know them it could be a sex offender undercover. Never meet strangers on the internet that you plan on meeting in public. This is so dangerous; it leads to many date rapes, killing, and abuse. It breaks parents hearts when they find out that their kids have been kid napped by somebody on the internet. All the times I hear about missing kids on the news.

My space I knew about all the kids that were getting kidnapped. To me if you keep your information to yourself you wouldn’t have the problems. To me it’s not that bad, if you put your page on private. I think that some kids get trapped if they see someone that they think looks cute. Also if you only had people that were your friends to your friends list, it would be a little safer. If you do talk to a stranger you shouldn’t give out your information you should use fake information.

I think that face book is a problem kind of only because they gave people their private information when they changed the rules.

Really though people act like we just go out and meet a predator. We will be mindful on who we are talking to.

Letter to Governor

July 25, 2007

Governor Jennifer M. GranholmP.O. Box 30013Lansing, Michigan 48909

Dear Governor Jennifer M. Granholm:

You are doing a really good job of taking care of our state, and I really admire all of the work you are doing. Unfortunately, there are still many problems in our state, one of them being teen pregnancy. I am writing this letter because I believe more needs to be done to prevent teenage, which will in turn prevent all of the issues pregnant teens have to go through. Since 1991, teen pregnancy has declined 33%, but every where I look there is a teenager who is pregnant.

More programs should be developed that tell teens why it is not healthy to be getting pregnant. If teens go to a program that shows what can happen if they get pregnant, maybe they will rethink what they want to do. Maybe they will get scared and say “no.” I know that there are some programs for safe sex, but I think that they should be put in the school for free. How would you feel if your daughter got pregnant because she wasn’t taught the right thing?

Along with these programs, teens should be told how unhealthy having sex is with out knowing if their partner has a disease. They should be told that they could catch a life long disease with no cure. Teens should be taught that they should wait until they are older and more mature. Teens are putting their lives at risk.

In conclusion, I just wanted to let you know how I feel about teenage pregnancy. I wanted to tell you that it is still a big problem everywhere, including our state. Some people need to know about the dangers and how getting pregnant can change lives. Really what I am trying to say is that there are way too many teens getting pregnant and it needs to stop. This is bad for them and the community.

Teen Pregnancy

Do you think that there are too many teens getting pregnant? Teenage pregnancy is becoming a huge problem with today’s youth. There needs to be a stop to this madness. There are many ways and other options that teens have besides abortion when they find out that they are pregnant. People should also help teens with their problems when they get pregnant.
What are teens’ first options? Some teens don’t know what to do when they get pregnant. When they first find out they get scared and nervous. Some teens’ parents will not except that they are pregnant and they will physically abuse the pregnant teen. In this case, the teen will take longer to tell the parent, resulting in them not seeing a doctor when they should. They will sometimes wait until it starts showing before they tell the parent(s) or guardian. Also, some teens have a problem when they do not want to keep the baby and they try to get an abortion.
Often times the guys are able to talk the girls into having sex. Some times girls will get sweet talked into having sex. Some examples of this are “if you love me you’ll give it up.” This is the main line that boys say. Some girls are scared that their boyfriends would dump them, so the girls decide to have sex. Then, when they get pregnant the boy does not what to have anything to do with the baby because they are not ready to have a baby. Then, he may act like it’s not his baby but he knows that it is.
This is how some parents take it. Some parents won’t care if their kids get pregnant. Others will try to harm their children because they are so disappointed in their child. This will lead to bad things. Some parents will support their kids and do what it takes to get them through the pregnancy.
Some kids run way when they find out that they are pregnant. They are scared of the reaction that they are going to get from everybody. Perhaps they would rather live by themselves than be with all of the commotion.
Some teens who want to have the baby soon realize that they don’t once the baby is born. They realize how much responsibility, cost, and time comes with the baby and can’t handle it. Cheryl L. Somers said “BTIO is a program that helps teens realize how many responsibilities comes with having a baby.” “There are almost 1,000 girls in this program.” (Teenage Pregnancy Prevention and Adolescents’ Sexual Outcomes) This is a good way to help some teens re think the thought of wanting to get pregnant. It also states that it is in all 50 states. These type of programs should be in more cities.
