I have chosen to write about an issue that worries nearly every female teenager ‘childhood pregnancy’. Firstly I did some background reading on childhood pregnancies and abortion to find out the options teenage girls have when they discover they are pregnant at such a young age and don’t know what to do about it. I wrote this story with the purpose to persuade. The audience was typically female and the ages 12-18 because females of this age tend to not know the impact and the effect a childhood pregnancy could have on them emotional and physically. Teenagers are most vulnerable and can easily be led into unprotected sex that carries a high risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases that will affect their livelihood and life as a whole. The purpose of my story is to persuade teenagers in the UK to read Laura’s ordeal and how one stupid mistake can lead to so much anguish. The UK has the highest number of teenage pregnancies in western Europe and the highest number of unmarried teenage mothers in the world The media have focused a lot over the high rise in teenage pregnancies with soaps such as Coronation street taking a stand in raising the issue over the last few years with Sarah Louise Platt getting pregnant at 14. The Story conveys a powerful message and reflects the firm course of action the government is taking to upheld the rise with a firm course of action that schools and parents must face. I found this useful as it relays the dramatically affects that this problem has not only on his life but farmers across the country and in Europe, but also the families as well who are faced with restrictions were they can go.
