Why is marriage the best option for teenage pregnancy?

can someone help me with this topic? our debate is tomorrow and we cant think of anything to prove that marriage IS the best option for teenage pregnancy. thanks a lot!c:Why is marriage the best option for teenage pregnancy?
Cause it isn't. Watch Juno.





But if I had to argue why it's the best way....what happend to them (the kids that made the baby) is a big responsibility. Being married will further bring that into perspective. Also, if it's a big wedding and both families show up and everything goes well, that shows the kids they have a lot of support for what's about to happen in their lives. Another thing is, for a child having parents that are married and together gives a good foundation and provides some kind of stability. Going back to responsibility and reality, getting married might also push the kids to better themselves as in get a good education to provide a good life for their child.





There I said it. I can't stand my baby mama's family though. so peace out.Why is marriage the best option for teenage pregnancy?
This issue just came into my life within the last few weeks as I was notified my not married oldest daughter is pregnant. I will say I am die hard anti-abortion. I believe most women think you just walk into a clinic get a abortion and walk out. It is more involved then that. Most women will have guilt and depression and need some sort of counseling following the abortion, as you just took a child's life. I believe marriage shows responsibility. I further believe it is important for the woman to have the support of the father in raising the child, and it is important to the child to have a mother and father in order to provide the child with a healthy envierment to grow up in and become a healthyy adult.
its not, but since you need reasons heres some I thought of off the top of my head:





- the child can have 2 parents and a stable family setting


- the parents learn to accept respondsibilty of raising there child


-Mother/father role is taken place and meets society standards


-Father agrees and accepts his respondsibility not leaving the mom as a single teen parent


-Less risk involved with mother ending up as a Single teen parent


-They may not need to resort to welfare. Two parents are both present father and mother. They can work together. Mother provides for child, father gets a job and pays the bills.


-Mother is able to raise child with father agreeing to be present by agreeing to marriage
Marriage is NOT the best option for a teenage pregnancy. I cannot give you argument for this sorry. Marriage does not make people happy or fix a teenage pregnancy. If there is love and support with the Father and Mother to be then they can bring the baby up without being married. There are lots of parents who are not married. Just say that marriage does not help or fix a teenage pregnancy.
i do not think marriage is the best option, i know people that have done a fine job on their own , why get married because of a child when the child would be bought up in an unhappy and hostile situation.





i was lucky enough to find the man of my dreams and after 5years we have little boyoy, although we have been engaged for 3years we are still not married.





next year will be the year.
Although I dont agree with this statement at all.... one reason could be that it gives the mother adequate support from the father, and creates a ';traditional'; family setting for a child to be raised in (both mother and father married).
Marriage is a horrible option for teenage pregnancy. If you get married you're just gonna end up having another kid and getting divorced at 20.
then you can divorce them and take them for everything there worth. lol i cant think of any reason why marriage is a good thing.
because it's not i don't see why they think that's the Solution to a teenage pregnancy it's nothing but a piece of paper
That's very difficult cause I also think that marriage is NOT the best option for teenage pregnancy.





Good luck.
