The Pregnancy Pact

The Pregnancy Pact, a new Lifetime movie, based on a true story...

In which there are eighteen high school girls pregnant in one Massachusetts town...

Four of which made a pact to become pregnant at the same time...

It is a really intriguing story that helps to open our eyes to the pressures teens face to be sexually active. It is written in the songs they listen to, the movies that they watch, and the books that they read. Everyone else is doing it...

Don't hand out contraceptives, because it's encouraging the behavior. But don't assume it's not happening...

There are 6,020 teenage pregnancies in Iowa each year. The sad thing is Iowa has the 8th lowest rate out of all the states.

Parents... Have the conversation...
