Blog entry #10 Teen Pregnancy: An Epidemic in Foster Care

Title: Teen Pregnancy: An Epidemic in Foster Care


     What is worse, being a pregnant teen, or being a pregnant teen in foster care? Some girls are in foster care, and are pregnant. Foster homes are temporary homes for kids, and when one teen got pregnant, she found there was no support for her. Throughout the years, teen pregnancys have been rising but also for girls in foster care their rates have been getting higher and higher. 

Reflection-
    Its sad to know that kids with no support are having babies. For girls that are in foster care move from house to house, they don't have a stable home, or family. 

Evidence-
      *"And when I got pregnant, I found there was no support for me. It was like, 'We need to get you out of foster care because we won't be able to handle you and a baby.' "
