The problem I plan to study is the STD and teen pregnancy rate and ways to prevent them from happening. Teen pregnancy and STD transmission are very important problems that need to be addressed because we now have many people dying very young because of these infections. We also have people socially dying because they have children while they are still young. Some can’t even take the heat so they drop out of school. A few of my fiends managed to drop out of school during their senior year. This problem is also necessary because these infections and these children are preventing teens from completing school, and getting into college.

            This research is necessary by youth in particular because youth should know and understand what is happening in the real life. They should not stay with the mindset that nothing will happen to them; that they will do things different. LOVE, or in some cases lust, is one of those feelings that people cannot control, they fall in love and don’t remember to think before they do stuff, sex in particular. Girls are the ones get if the worst because they fall in love and let guys tell them what they to believe, and this same guy may go around having sex with many other girls. Then a few months later, these girls turn up with STDs or pregnant. This topic is very necessary for many reasons. Youth should know what each STD is, they should how to use a condom, and they should also know how difficult it is to maintain a child, school, and work all at one time.

            This problem must get addressed sooner than later because at this moment a young person is getting pregnant or worse, getting some type of STD.

 

            The question I came up with was “Why is teen pregnancy and STDs education important in our society, and what will happen if you lack this form of education?” Answering this question will help make things better only if important people read it. The answer to this question will get people thinking and will help people understand the importance in educated themselves on this topic. The answer to this question will decrease the teen pregnancy rate, and will also help youth in Boston think before having sex; it will help prevent the spread of STDs as well. This question need to be answered thoroughly, for it to make a difference, it need to help people truly understand the importance. It will not only educate people but it will also improve our communities and many different ways.

For my hypothesis, I was expecting to find out that youth in Boston are not educated enough about STDs and teen pregnancy. I’m also expecting to find out that youth aren’t using the resources that are being given. There are only a few classes about STD prevention in Boston and youth in Boston don’t take advantage of them. That’s why these classes should be mandatory, just like it’s important to get certified for CPR, the classes should also be mandatory. They should be put in high schools all around Boston, not just in community centers. Sexual education classes should be mandatory freshman year and senior year of high school, kind of like a mandatory introduction of these very sensitive topics and senior year for a brief reminder.
